40% MORE POWER & SMALLER - DeWalt DCD805 XR 20V MAX Hammer Drill Driver Review
Вставка
- Опубліковано 4 лип 2024
- Adding to their extensive drill and driver lineup, @dewalttv released the new DCD805 XR 20V MAX Hammer Drill Driver that has 40% more power than the previous DCD791 and it's 1/2" shorter than the DCD997. We mated our DCD805 with the PowerStack battery and it was nothing short of impressive. The two-speed gearbox delivers 0-650 RPM is Low and 0-2,000 RPM in High via the variable speed trigger. You get a 17-position clutch, 15 of which are for driving (screws), another position for drilling, and yet another for hammer drilling at 0-34,000 BPM. We even put in a 2-9/16 Auger bit and the DCD805 chewed right through the 2x4. These should start hitting the shelves in April 2022. 3-year limited warranty. Price will be added soon.

I am a carpenter with over thirty years experience, when I was studying all the pros and cons of each brand of cordless platforms ,I went with Dewalt ,I particularly like their future proofing with Flexvolt and backwards compatibility to their 20 volt tools .I have never been dissapointed with Dewalt .
Like you did, I picked the best tool not the brand, I have a mix of about 50/50 DeWalt and Milwaukee.
Dewalt was always my favorite tool as well.But I do like all Tools, except real cheap tools.I have some new Flex tools that I like
Everyone should stop buying China Milwaukee 🇨🇳
That's not an augur bit, and you're not supposed to use hammer mode to drill through steel. With all due respect.
Hi. Why not? Concrete only? Thanks
@@mikeike7114Hammering on steel messes up your drill bit by chipping the bit itself away
Dewalt is dropping some quality stuff these days. I’ll stick with Milwaukee as my go to but I’ve been adding more black and yellow to my collection lately. I don’t have much use for a hammer drill these days being in the concrete industry. Rotary hammers are a must, but I definitely like that 805. Great review Tim. Awesome video brother
Thank you very much. You are correct, DeWalt continues to add more quality units to their lineup. Thanks for watching.
Most of my tools are dewalt. But I also have the m12 platform because of what they make. Both are awesome tools
Dewalt always had good quality, my dad still has every dewalt tool he's ever bought they all work perfect. Tools are old af too
@@jasonvandervalk3679 the dewalt 12 volt xtreme line is passing the m12 line, the yellow impact wrenches and cordless ratchets are stronger then Milwaukee
@@Lee-lb9qh yeah my pops still has an old brushed dewalt recip saw. 18volt nicad🤣. Still runs man. Batteries only last about 2 minutes 🤣🤣
Love the new smaller size and power. Hope to test one out myself soon 🙂✌️❤️
I love the work light mode. I wish tools kept the light on a little longer in general, seems like they all go off a few seconds too soon
The 805 is an upgrade to the 796 hammer drill, not the 791.
Just got this drill and I love it!! I really love it with the powers Tackett and I love the light
I love it! Just bought an 805. Now I can use as a backup flashlight!
is it possible to use as screwdrive too ?
Wow, that was impressive that the little drill made it through all three materials.
I know, right? Thanks for watching.
Def a nice drill, DEWALT has always had amazing drill offerings and this 805 just solidifies that reputation. Team black and yellow goin strong 💪
Good morning from mid Tn.
I am very impressed with the light. Nothing worse than working in a craw space and having to rely on your auxiliary light. Have a decent light on the drill motor comes in very handy. Good move on their part making it adjustable, bright and a long stay on time.
Honestly my issue isn't with the rainbow of tools available. It's the cost of the dang batteries. They offer these little 2.0ma with the kits but if I'm under the house or in the attic I need a battery that will last.
Tool- 200
Extra decent battery, 250- 350 dollars.
Thanks again brother for another great video.
I have 7 big batteries, 4, 5, and 6 ah, didn't pay for a single one, got the tools when they offered free batterys or promos
Hi Tim, thanks for your great video, impressing the way you explained the tool. Just a question : which kind of drill did you use to drill the 3 different materials? Thanks in advance for your feedback!
Excellent and professional Video/ Review as usual! Good show! Out of curiosity, how was the chuck for runout? And how abrupt was the electric brake? Thanks dude! Stay safe!
👍👍👍✌🏻🇺🇸😄
DeWalt has compact series drills, full size premium drills, sub compact drills and 12v drills depending on what you may need just like Milwaukee, Ridgid etc.
Hi great video, what is the difference
between Dewalt DCD805N + Dewalt DCD805P2
combi drills ?
Love this hammer drill, so compact , so strong. Hope to see more video comparing it with other brands too!!!
Will do! Thanks for watching.
I'm glad I bought this, with the DCF-850. Great dependable tools.
Good choice! Thanks for watching.
Why not just weight them without a battery instead of having diff batteries on each and then swapping them around?
Is the front (grey part) of the drill some kind of metal or a plastic?
Good review, I really like the light feature
Yes, that light with multiple positions and work light mode is pretty cool. Thanks for watching.
Pretty cool! Thanks!!
Glad you like it! Thanks for watching.
Can this drill have enough power to mix 60lbs of concrete or self leveling?
When are they going to be available to purchase?
The DCD 800 I had got hot and cut out doing some of the same tasks that I see UA-cam channels using it for. I think I would stick with the 996.
Can't blame you for that. Thanks for watching.
Is this an all-in-one drill/driver/hammer?
Does it work well for everything?
what is the DCD805B . Is the B the security feature?
How does this compare with the 996, 998 and 999?
is it as strong as the 998-hammer drill?
Nice intro to the drill. It would be nice to see how it stacks up against the older 796 and big brother 999.
Right, good question
I'm hoping to see soon a comparison to the 999 that I own and am very very satisfied with it
@@poet4955 would like to see same. Opted for the DCD805 for home DIY instead of the 999 with car battery.
Great review!! I’ve been wanting to see this in action. Driver and hammer, NICE!!! I’m interested in this drill, it comes in combo kit with the 850. IMO that’s prob the best kit for me considering I’m not looking to break loose 400+ pounds or break off screw heads. I’ve seen the release of the 840 & 845. I think the 850 is more then enough power then I need. But I do want power when it’s needed. I believe You’ve helped me make my decision on what kit to buy. Unless you have anything negative to say about the 850 ?? Like the 840 & 845 came out to replace it because of some kind of issues ?
The 850, 840 and 845 aren’t in the same lineup. Pretty sure the 840 and 845 are xr impact drivers while the 850 is in the atomic line. The 840 and 845 are more powerful while the atomic isn’t too far behind but is more compact and lighter.
Is the chuck removable or not?
Mine is brand new and stuck in hammer mode, I can get it out by twisting the clutch all the way to 1 then go back to drill mode, just a pain
I already replaced my Milwaukee 12 volt impact with the DeWalt atomic 850. Im definitely replacing the Milwaukee 12 volt drill with this little guy.
Is it better than the dcd 796n?
Thank you for the video
Thanks for watching!
I think the dcd805 is the best looking dewalt drill almost as good as the 12v dcd706d2!
Is this genuinely an alternative for a combi drill and something like the dcd996? Obviously I know you can turn the hammer function off but dewalts branding, marketing and descriptions are a little confusing.
VERY NICE!!!!
Putting a powerstack on a one-handed-drill with no emergency antikickback mechanism and then driving a 2½" forstner is just asking for it 🎲
At one point or another people should just use a full-size hammer drill with a foregrip attachment. Dulled rusty bits, knotted up wood, the chances stack way up
I am so confused with dewalt. Like I love dewalt but how many lines they have is sooo confusing. I thought they atomic (home depot) was there compact line as well as extreme (lowes)? Just confusing
Is that common to use hammer mode on steel? I always just use it for stone, tile, concrete, etc...
Same here, I go with regular mode through steel then switch to hammer to save the bit from excessive wear.
Hammer mode through steel works faster but it’s gonna be the end of the drill bit really fast too
I have the atom 709. It's very good. The 805 is powerful.
can i use 805 for screwdrive too ?
Impressive hammer drill. I need to put my hands on one of these to replace my DCD709
The new stuff DeWalt is coming out with lately is looking really nice. I wonder how they hold up in everyday use though.
Like all dewalt tools they will last long
Ya I mean old Dewalt tools still work there's your answer
@@Lee-lb9qh No the new one's last long too, they're not like Milwaukee who put their tools out without thoroughly testing them
@@loucifer4205 what? I'm saying Dewalt WILL last...
@@loucifer4205 Both Milwaukee and Dewalt make quality tools. The only issues I’ve ever had were with the dewalt impacts. Just seems to have lost power over 2 years of heavy use. The Milwaukee impact has been used a lot more and is holding up well still. It’s nice to see dewalt stepping their game up lately!
Dewalt’s circular saws are better in my opinion but Milwaukee’s sawzall is better.
I find myself buying more milwaukee tools lately because Dewalt falls short with several tools. Nail guns and multi tool to be more specific. But these new tool releases by dewalt are getting me excited.
Beautiful
Thanks for watching.
"Using the variable speed..." - Hey I found a new way to make music!!
the new milwaukee has a autostop, Can you tell me if the dewalt 805 has that?
Does that prevent kickback injury?
Cool Tim
Thank you very much.
How about the dcf891 impact wrench?
Very soon. ;)
I'm a DeWalt lover, I own almost every tool they make but this thing is 2 speed instead of 3 and doesn't have the option to add the handle? I think I'll stay with the 991 and keep using the 12v drill for everyday use
These are compact upgrades to the two-speed 791/796, which are great drills IMO DeWalt upgraded the 991/996 to the Power Detect and Flexvolt Advantage versions, which have three speeds and even more power than the older models.
Interesting review, DeWalt look as though they've really found some advances in brushless motor power to size/weight ratio.
Can you tell us whether the chuck suffers the concentricity issues that were a bane of the 790/791/795/796 series? Also when you were making the length comparison, it would have been more representative to use the 996 or 999 instead of the (drill/driver)991- as they're hammer drills and are about 1/2" longer as a result.
I have had the same Chuck problems on a 785 and two 796.
Looks like it's the same Chuck type on the 800 and 805 so unless I'm told otherwise I'm steering clear.
@@Saxondog As a matter of interest Derek, what part of the world are you posting from? I sometimes wonder if there's a difference between 'Assembled in USA' vs other when it comes to DeWalt. And yep it certainly does look like the same chuck design is in use - altho improvements in production tolerances are all that would be needed to fix this issue. I've got a new (Röhm) chuck waiting to go on my 796. Hopefully it'll sort the problem out.
@@richh33 England
@@Saxondog Thanks Derek. Me UK too. Really makes me wonder whether drills destined for other markets have the same issues.
Just sent a 796 (body only) back that I had just bought (UK) . The chuck was all over the place so the drill bit was meandering badly. Where is their quality control? I have a 709 and it does not have that problem.
The biggest disadvantage of the 805 (or advantage to the XR 991) is that you cannot attach a side handle which to me is essential for using the hammer function for stability and for saving your wrist if you get kickbacks. For me I want a hammerdrill to use with a Power Planter auger (for digging holes in hard clay-pack soil) and I would not consider the 805 or any hammerdrill where you could not attach a side handle!
These are compact drills. You don’t want to be doing and serious hammering in masonry with it. You want a handle, go up to the dewalt 998/999.
Doing actual masonry? Actual masonry meaning, large anchors, redheads, rough in through block wall etc. Use a rotary hammer as the good lord intended.
@@BruceWayne-xu5bj While I see your point, a handle is always good to have. I mainly want that using a Power Planter (digging holes in soil for plants, etc.) and here is the thoughts of Shop Tools Reviews (and other sites I have seen):
“This DeWalt DCD805 Hammer Drill Driver chewed through lumber with ease. We used a 7/8″ auger, 1-1/2″ spade bit, and even the 2-9/16″ auger bit. Setting the clutch to Hammer mode, we also drilled through steel plate, a wood 2×4, and a cinder block. The DCD805 and its brother the DCD800 (non-hammer) are supposed to hit the shelves in April 2022. You get a 3-year limited warranty, but price is still undetermined at this time.”
So yes, you can certainly use the 805 for tougher tasks - if only it had a handle!
Right. But like I’m saying, they have (make) handled drills that are made for those task in which a handle may be required, while THIS one is simply a mid tier compact drill. Albeit well performing. Yes, it has power, but it’s still just a compact drill.
I could see getting away with drilling stucco while installing a chimney cricket or attaching a sub panel box type thing. I wouldn’t be concerned with a handle for that. It’s not a replacement for those other models.
For a auger, again the 999 is the drill for the task. Not just for the handle but for the fact that it has a lower gear ratio in a 3 speed mode for a bit that big. I’ve done it. I have a 3 1/2 in diameter auger (18 inch.) Even, then if you hit rock hard enough, it’s fly out of your hands.
A flexvolt stud and joist drill works too if you can hold on to it.
@@BruceWayne-xu5bj Want to know the strangest thing about your comment? Just today I was over a Lowe’s seeing what DeWalt hammer drills they had! And considering I posted my original comment about 4 months ago kind of a weird coincidence you posted yours today!
For me earlier in last year I got the special deal where I got the 850 impact drive with two Powerstack batteries and with that you got a free tool (I got a circ saw). For years I got by using a Black and Decker Matrix system where you can change out the tool heads (drill, impact, multi-tool, etc.) you would be amazed how many home projects I did with that kit, I really pushed it. But the time came that the batteries began to were out, etc. and I wanted to move to something better. For nearly a year I watched YT videos, reviews on all the brands. I chose DeWalt because it is available at both Lowe’s and HD (unlike Milwaukee, Ryobi, Kobalt). as well as Amazon and so many other places.
I want a hammer drill (more correctly a combo drill) less for the “hammer” part and more for the drill/driver and a 1/2” chuck so I can use my DeWalt hole saw kit. But I will certainly use the hammer drill setting often enough to have it, and why not get one that can use a handle for when I may need that as well.
With my Powerstack batteries I don’t need or want to get a FlexVolt (HD) or Power Detect (Lowe’s) or need the wifi thing (yes, I may opt for a kit deal where I can get an XR 5aph battery) Also the 998/997 I believe are fairly old designs - right? And they have gone up in price to about $240 for the tool only - Wow!
I have heard they are suppose to come out with a new hammer drill to replace the 99x series, so I may wait for that.
I have been framing houses for over thirty years and have never needed a side handle (it actually gets in the way ) when using 600mm auger bits ,if you drill a lot of concrete, get a rotary hammer drill .
Is thus more powerful that the dcd999?
no
Wondering why would you use hammer function on steel...
@YiZuSc why not? It’s for concrete only? Thanks
Don’t use hammer action drilling steel…it is not going to help and might chip the cutting edges of the bits. Fast drilling through steel is done with a LOW speed and steady high pressure.
This is the 5th tile project we've done where we've removed the old tile before installing new tile, and the first one with this tool ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxqqoaX03nrziKwF7Bjjcc71YzLEleMvOS . I want to cry for all the unnecessary work we've done in the past. With this tool, we removed tile surrounding a fireplace, as well as the hearth tile, set in loads of cement, in less than an hour. I highly recommend this tool. It was easy to use, and very satisfying watching the tile literally fall off the wall.
Why did I not find this before buying the 791. Ugh
The 805 hammer drill copers to the 796 and the 996, and the 801 compares to the 791 and the 991.
You are comparing hammer drill to drill drivers.
So where the f is the comparison to 996
Why does no one use a drill chuck correctly? 8:57 you had to re-tighten it because you never actually turned the chuck quarter turn back to lock it.
Do the manufactures mention this in the instruction manual? I've seen people say it online but I haven't seen it on my owner manuals.
Neither does Makita manual's for there drills and by the way I've never encountered this problem with my Makita drills. My understanding is that if you turn it back a little you unlock the ratchet tightening feature.
@@anthonymoralessr.3889 I agree, I think that may be untightening it in reality.
@@firebir11untightening???
I guess they are going to
Abandon the 12v xtreme too bad , more than any homeowner needs . The impact will easily zing off rusted lug nuts .
Is it dcd805 or dcd805B?
DCD805 and the DCD805B is the same tool. The "B" just states that you're buying the tool "bare" with no battery or charger. If you bought a kit with 2 batteries, it may be the DCD805P2 or something like that. Thanks for watching.
@@Shoptoolreviews thank you very much I appreciate the help!
Dewalt put that drill with new compact impact impact Driver with 2 new battery of compact battery and your won't even need a big drill or 12v again
Compact impact battery compact am I right
Your not tightening the chuck right you have to back it off one click after you crank it down
40 % more power than what?
Maybe start slow in high speed, 😎
Os eua tem muitas coisas melhores do que nós menos madeira....pega uma de verdade para fazer teste
Thats a concrete bit, not a steel bit. 😅
Оке👍👍🙏
Sucks multimaterials bits all chip drilling steel
The 805 is comparable to the old 996. It has 850w power and 90 Nm torque, and still only 2000 rpm.
The old 796 is 420w with 70Nm torque (on low speed)…So no comparison. Now the kicker….You can get the old 796 for about 70 bucks bare tool…the new 805 is well over 200 bucks bare tool. All you are really getting for three times the price is 30% more twisting power…and if that’s really what you need, just get an impact driver…the 887 impact can be yours for 65 bucks bare tool now!
The tool upgrade hype is now kinda like mobile phones…get this year’s must have model for a small fortune because…reasons!
On balance….the 805 IS functionally better and physically smaller, it is just for you to decide if the huge outlay is worth it TO YOU for any modest increase over the previous king 996. Personally, I’d want a bigger jump in capability for that much money….
(FWIW..I have the smaller 796 and an 887…which together can cope with just about anything outside of shipbuilding😂 and together with a 5ahr batt and charger sets you back about two hundred bucks all in.)
Not the way to weigh the tools.
First !
Thanks for watching.
