well i recently bought a makita XT269 and the first time i used the drill in high gear 2nd speed it made that same clicking noise. so i decided to call makita and i asked the associate to hear the drill and he said that thats a brake system that's a safety feature of the drill so when basically you use it in high gear the drill spins at high rpms so the brake engages and it stops the chuck fast and that's why it makes a clicking sound. so don't worry about it just think of it as a safety feature added for protection at the drill.
Exactly...
Its just the chuck brake making that noise.. Ive owned dewalts 18v xrp set since they were released many years ago and the drill does the same thing. I also own the 20v max xr set and same with those.. The reason for the noise is that the drill puts out so much power and spins with high rpms, so as soon as you release the trigger the brake instantly stops the chuck from spinning... All in all its not a problem with the drill whatsoever.. You will never have a problem with it.. Ive had the 18v xrp's for 8-10 years whenever they were released and they still do it today and work perfectly fine.. Even after dropped from 25 or so feet off ladders lol.. I would NEVER buy anything other than dewalt cordless tools.. They have never let me down and i dont expect it to let you down as well.. I hope this helps!!

I have to say my mind is changing. I used this drill for a
few hours today assembling my outdoor chairs I build and it did not once made
the multiple grinding clacking noise like the one I returned did. I understand
the brake part, I’m convinced the drill I returned was malfunctioning, this one
is no where near the noise making drill the other one was. I love DeWalt’s the
old drill is at least 10+ years and batteries aren’t doing the job. Thank You
for the feed back I may just keep it.
Mine does the same it's the brake. I personally don't care it works well
Bought mine a little over 3 years ago and recently my drill died(brushes) got some new brushes and still using it to this day and it's still doing this.
I have the same drill and that sound is one my favourite things about the drill. I love that sound. That sound is cool. It makes the drill sound very mechanical.
Tony Smith lol
I just got one and I agree.
It's been a year, how is the drill?
I just wonder how it is possible that people using power tools for years do not know what this sound is. This sound is immediate stop mechanism. Many power tools have this mechanism, not only drills. It is a safety feature and this is how it should sound. Personally I like this sound.
Had mine over five years now. Still makes that noise, still works great.
@damien D The 1/4 or 3/8 impacts are not made for and will not remove lug nuts.
Hi shack I got it work it just little tight to move it ,now I'm good to go thanks
+MICHAEL ANG glad to hear, your welcome
Thank you for Subscribing.
My more expensive Dewalt drill makes that same nose that drill is 10 years old. Never had a problem. I guess if you don't like the nose but actually a few drills I own make that same sound. never had issues with it.
I just bought this combo last night on sale. Drill makes this exact same noise. I almost brought it back and I think stores must be dealing with a lot of returns. Either DeWalt should make the brake quieter or advise customers in BIG letters that this is "normal". I'll keep drill now that I know it's not just mine doing it. Your video helped!
logical canuck thank you for the comment and not blasting me like most. I totally agree and what i simply stated they should of done something to quiet it. Not a problem just very annoying to me. I still use it but actually bought a Porter Cable brushless drill and love it. Just one of those things. I don't have a DeWalt brushless to compare to but i hear the don't do the same. Hopefully they learned. Thanks again for viewing just tune it out and enjoy the combo. I use the impact ALL the time.
I agree with u 100%....I have the same 2, same issue.....
i love my dewalt I'm a commercial and industrial electrician i use it for everything I've gone threw mud and water and its been working Wonderfull i use the hammer drill feature a lot and no issues what so ever i think the best part is how light weight they are
My old DeWalt I'd keep but just too heavy and batteries no longer available. I was just upset the new style was soo noisey but the replacement isn't. When trigger is released just a click. Nothing more. Unlike the other which sounded like metal in a garbage disposal. Huge difference. This I can deal with.
Than you sir for the input
I'm going to keep it
I just bought this set. It was mostly for the Impact Driver but the drill has more power than my 12V Dewalt which I love! I tested the drill and mine kinda does a sound but not as loud as yours but only when the drill is on speed 2 (low torque high speed) On speed 1 (high torque low speed) when I just release the trigger it doesn't make the noise, but on speed 2 it does if I just let it go. However it doesn't make the sound if I slowly let go of the trigger to slow it down as it is variable speed trigger. It's basically the same sound the chuck brake makes when you set your screw into wood and you want it to stop turning so you don't drill the screw too deep... I would just enjoy the drills
I agre the inpact driver is phenomenal. The drill was completely faulty. After i returnede it and recieved another one after a few hours of use while assembling some out door furniture i build, the drill setteled in and has performed perfect. just a simple click when the stop brake engages. No more clicking. DeWalt is a quality product. I just got the luck of the draw and happen to get a faulty one. But all is good now. Enjoy your kit. It will serve you well.
Thanks for the input
Mine sounds the same. It's only the high torque gear that sounds like that. I'm pretty sure that's a feature not a bug.
I just bought this model and it does make the same awful noise. I was going to get the more expensive XR brushless model but I didn't see any in the store so I got this one today. I hope it works out fine.
Kathy Blair how was that drill now a days and how about battery
Agree with others. It's the clutch brake. Mine does the same thing. And I do agree with you regarding Lowes! Home Depot FTW!
I had the same set. Made the same clunking noise that it was when you showed it drilling. The short snap and the end when toy have it all the way and then let go is just a common noise. It's an electric brake thing. I took mine back and got a brushless set and love it. When you look it up everyone is taking about a different noise
+trailblazers2001Last year I updated a lot of my older tools, just time, and I don’t use them as I did working full time. Looking back I wish I went brushless but the new one only has a click when I let off so this one in the vid was truly faulty. You were smart to up grade when you returned yours. Just a little taken when I read threads way back to 2011 and people were talking about a noise, would have thought DeWalt might take notice and change something to cure it. Can’t have top notch quality on everything their name is on but my planner and miter saw they got right. Absolutely 5 star all the way. Thanks for the comment, enjoy your brushless set.
+The Shack also that's one is the cheapest dewalt 20v drill I'm pretty sure. I was going to exchange mine but they didn't have them and I saw the brushless kit on clearance and glad I got it. It's still a pretty good drill if the clunking noise is taken care of. I got mine at Home Depot and they had no questions for the return.
Sadly I bought that set through Lowe’s and no one seemed to know how to return it. went to 3 different stores finally finding one that had the set to talk to a manager who must of graduated high school and was able to exchange it. Just another of a few bad experiences with Lowe’s and why I don't shop there any more.
+The Shack yea. Lowes used to be in the same city I live in but now Home Depot is closer so I usually buy from there.
I was a die hard Lowe’s advocate. But when Lowe’s closed their doors by my OC rental I had to go to Home Depot for supplies I needed for painting repairs and upgrades. Needless to say the experience converted me. They have a better web site and better managing tools for the small business owner than Lowe’s. I walk into Home Depot and I will have 2 or 3 people ask if I need help. The last time I stepped in to Lowe’s I asked a lady to call someone I was in need of assistance. I needed to talk to a person in regards of concrete stain. I waited and waited went back up front stood10 feet from her watched her on her phone for 10 minutes when she finally looked up looking a little startled asked if anybody helped me yet I gave her that look walked up to her sat my paint supplies on her register and said “I don’t think they pay to be on your phone and NO nobody has helped me. Maybe you are all texting each other to be bothered by the customers. I just wish I was videoing you so I could post just how great customer service is at Lowe’s”. I’ve never set foot back in Lowe’s from that day
I recently purchased a Ridgid combo kit that came with a hammer drill. It's a two speed drill and when on the 2nd speed it makes the same type of sound when stopping. It's the latest generation drill gen5x and the noise is irritating as if somethings not right. Normally on the first speed there is no noise while stopping.
Is the stopping noise normal? I don't know, but it doesn't make me feel any better while drilling at number two speed.
I would like to know exactly what is making the noise and how the noise is harmless to the drill.
And as far as the sound it sounds like all balls to me I love it....
Hi I just watch your video ,I have the same model and i have it more than a year now it never sound like that ,it's smooth probably it a defect u have in hand ,but my 1 - 15 clutch is stuck can't move at all
+MICHAEL ANG Thank you for viewing. The drill was defective. I returned it and it just has the click when the clutch engages. No where near the sound of the spoon in the garbage disposal sound, much better now. That’s strange your clutch is frozen. Have you contacted DeWalt? I know for my Miter saw their customer service needs an upgrade, not the easiest to get through to.
I have the same drill. a Christmas gift from my Sons. I have the same sound from mine when in speed position #2, but my chuck stops so quickly, that it loosens after 3 or 4 stops. The drill falls right out! I tightened the chuck as tight as I can, and my Son did also, it still loosens after 3-4 times going from full speed to stop. Going to call Dewalt customer service to see what they can do. I love the drill and driver, but this problem is PITA!.
Have the same drill. Started out working and sounding normally. After about a year the same sound you have started. Also has a slight jerk when it stops.
Kevin i think it was just a bad design. I don’t use that DeWalt much at all. if lucky a few times a year. I have purchased a newer one last year much better but PC is still my go to drill and impact driver.
If you prefer to not hear the click of an electric brake, maybe you should use a corded drill that doesn't utilize one. Sounds a lot quieter than the impact mechanism on an impact driver to me.
that is the electric brake my one makes same sound, new feature on dewalt tools for control and safety.
Hey the shack greetings from the blue ridge mountains of North Carolina
Just got the same drill and mine does not make same braking sound go figure
Hope u get satisfaction
It is the adjustable select-able brake on the drill. If you crank the brake up to max it usually doesn't do it.
Yes, i have the same issue with this drill. Not only did i have an issue with the noise, i had an issue with the batteries not holding the charge, 2 different times! I do not know whats going on with this particular model!
But i would not recommend this drill to anyone. Your better off with another brand if you ask me.
+Mocredible I have no problem with the new drill but I agree I wouldn’t recommend these to anyone. My preference is Milwaukee but they don’t have the 3 LED incorporated in their design. I wish they would. I haven’t had any issue with the batteries thus far. Thank you for viewing and the input it’s good to know when people are looking to but a product all the up and down to make an informed decision.
Milwaukee or go Dewalt brushless version I got a dcd996 and is so far the best cordless drill I ever had
I love that noise...
That is the electronic brake I got the same one that does the same thing
so if u returned it what did u get after all mil makita or bosch or what I just got the 12 v screwdriver and no issues 4 it being 12 v and $99.00 same set up 2 bats and charger and contractor bag
After 3 different Lowes stores i found a manager that knew how to return the stupid thing. Another reason i dont go to Lowes anymore. I returned if for another one and it works fine. That one was faulty. Thanks Ruben for the shout
ok I got the DeWalt 12 v screw driver it has balls 4 the 2 1/2 screws and 3 in as well it is my go 2 along with and 18 v ryobi it 4 being $79.00 it has power and came a long way from when they 1st came out I used the ryobi in industrial place and worked 4 me great not that it was meant 4 it but it will handle it
Mine just arrived and sounds like this! Its horrible but my fear is: its something wrong or the tool will work fine and is a caracteristic of this model? I´m from Brazil and here Dewalt is the best that you can get (unless you sell a kidney), and returning is a bit difficult.
Luciano My first one was faulty the second one makes the normal clicking noise but NO where near the sound of the first. I have no issue with the drill with about a year of use just don't care for the clacking noise. So much so i actually went out and purchased a Porter Cable brushless and its as quiet as a mouse. Love it. Just my personal thing didn't care for the noise. I only use my drill about one day a week so not a LOT of use but enough if something was to come up. DeWalt is good I just don't care for the noise. The brushless are quieter but for the price and frequency of use PC for me is a better value especially when 20v max DeWalt is $200 and the PC 20v max is $130
deal with it,
I got the same tool. same exact problem. I just don't care. it's a temporary tool. when I get the money for a Milwaukee Imma get it. bc I've NEVER had a problem from the Milwaukee brand thus far.
+brian6265 well the new one calmed down and is much quiter. just a click when it stops. I agree Milwaukee is a better drill and impack driver. I just wish they would add the 3 LED light like Ridgid and DeWalt. My old DeWalt was better than the new one. Wish i never got rid of it. Thanks for the comment.
I bought this set around the same time you posted this video. Think I paid $169.. well that being said I regret this all the time. 1. These aren't USA assembled. 2. The brushless combo is going for $189-$199.. 3. This kit comes with odd 1.3ah batteries, when the brushless kit comes with 1.5ah batteries.. 4. My charger has a short in it.. I have to wiggle it around to start the charge... the drills work good.. i love the impact.. but drill driver... disappointed sometimes.. I feel like it's to long or something... just feels awkward.. might sell mine on eBay for a few bucks and get a brushless hammer drill dcd996... just my $.02... cheers.
Ross I feel ya brother. I like my DeWalt planner and miter
saw but I hate to say I’m not too impressed with this set. I like my PC more. I
have no idea how well the new generation performs but they are a bit out of my
price range. I know the Milwaukee Hammer drill was outstanding again the new
model I’m not sure. DeWalt and Milwaukee go
back and forth. I really wish the others would put the 3 LED design in their
tools. I don’t see as good as I did and that is very helpful for me. Thanks for
viewing and hope all turns out for the best.
The Shack I might also add I do wish I invested more and went with the Milwaukee. My big fall back is; it's simply overkill for me. Sure I'm getting a good high performance piece, but it's more of an ego fix than practicality. Dewalt is the perfect medium in the cordless tool lines.. you aren't buying a total home owner non-workhorse... (cough cough Craftsman, Ryobi, Kobalt) dewalt can take the abuse and has a decent warranty. I know I'll get beat up by some over over calling ryobi out, however.. put a ryobi impact up against the dewalt impact and you'll see why it's worth spending an extra $30. Dewalts biggest fault is the outrageous cost of high capacity battery packs.. ouch. I'm tempted to buy the newer Porter Cable brushless combo. Much more affordable and also a reliable hard worker.
I think you'd do well going with PC. I use mine more in the shop than DeWalt
its normal. its the brake. my dewalt has out lasted my coworkers makitas and milwaukees. theirs might be "more powerful" which is nominal, but my dewalts are the most durable. and my impact has been dropped and abused and stillkeeps puttin in screws. plus im always having to plug their baterries in and lend them my drill.
+Hilario Hernandez
True, a click is normal but that grinding noise wasnt. after a few months with the new one never heard that sound again only the click the first one was faulty. I love DeWalt. i just picked up a DeWalt 12" duel sliding compound miter saw which ill try to unbox this week but no guarantees cause im moving my grandma so it might be next week. DeWalt is a proven brand and i guess i was surprised i just got a bad one in a million. I also have a DeWalt DW735 planner thats phenomenal. All is well in The Shack DeWalt isn't going anywherer soon.
Thank for your input
Modes are speed selector. Switched back, it's high speed which, I guess, enables the braking mechanism. I suppose it's not needed on low speed,
They say its normal but I agree with you it sounds like the electric brake they threw in there is going to break something I'm on my third drill Dewalt drill in 3 years I bought the premium 20 volt when it first came out had accident some water and burn it up I got another one my second one it did and do what yours was doing with the it's kind of like the electric brake was kicking in three or four times in a row like Bam Bam Bam Bam when it would stop after using that drill for a year it only got worse sounding open it up on Monday to look at it and I couldn't see any physical damage from that but I agree that sounds horrible
+Matthew Van
Wow can’t believe it got worse. You would think sense enough people have been saying things about that noises that DeWalt would take notice and change something; the older models didn't make that noise. Funny my drill
got quieter after a few weeks of use building some outdoor furniture, still made the click noise but not nearly as noticeable. I’m not a Ridgid fan but I got a brushless impact driver and I’m impressed on how smooth the brushless
system is. The stopping reminded me of my air wrenches and sound almost like them, that air torque sound. If this is the new craze so far I like it. I may wait and see about getting a deal on a DeWalt or Milwaukee brushless and sell my brushed impacts.
+The Shack I bought the 20 volt Dewalt brushless impact when it came out it's the one that has the speed control 1 2 & 3 that's the most expensive one and I'll be honest if it had a a ratcheting Chuck I would use it more than I would my drill you know if I could use it in that capacity but the impacting doesnt do so good through straight drilling but the brushless motors are definitely the way to go have doubled the battery life pretty much per charge. the first 20 volt drill I bought was brushed the second 1 was brushless and I use them on the same batteries and man. i tell ya it really did double the battery life. The dcd771 I got was the company I work for the guy went to replace my other drill that burn up and couldn't find the exact one that I had so he bought that and for what I use it for be honest it ain't worth a crap and honestly through some research I do believe that is the same as the Black and Decker 20 volt drill with it they sell and I really couldn't believe he actually bought that for me cuz had the premium top-of-the-line Dewalt brushless hammer drill and he replaces it with that dcd771 and I tell you I had a Bosch 12 volt set that I used at my house and that 12 volt Bosch drill is better than at Dewalt 20 volt drill in my opinion. have a good one
+Matthew Van Wow can't believe he went down when he replaced your old burned up one. when you replace a danaged tool you go with the same or upgrage but not down grade. To be honest, im not too impressed with the drill and drivers DeWalt putting out. I wish i would of went with Milwaukee. Live and learn. Bosch is a good tool.
I have a 18v bosch drill and impact for my house and has not failed with any task and only one complaint the chuck is not all that great but everything else is top notch
+The Shack it only took. 2 hrs continuous medium duty drilling thru 10 gauge aluminum for it to start seemingly losing power drill was super hot as well so I gave it a break and when I try to start using it again it started smoking got really hot really fast and lost probably 80% of its power . i sent it off to dewalt under warranty. but i really dont want it back
I got a problem with the keyless Chuck bought mine from Lowe's with 2 years warranty problem is they won't. They told me to contact dewalt. so I did and they told me to pay to ship it back. Just gonna use it till it breaks
Wow John sorry to hear. I feel the pain. I had problems with Lowe's another reason I don't shop there anymore. Home Depot takes returns no question. Why pay for that waranty if they don't honor it. Come on Lowe's!! I'd contact another store if not too far and talk with a manager
John Olechowski Contact their corporate office. Tell them how you don't plan on shopping with them again.
The noise is the electric brake kicking. Unlike older drill drivers the chuck immediately stops when you release the trigger...
Mine does the same thing. don't know if it is good or bad
If it bothers you, TAKE IT BACK! You'll be happier! Call DeWalt and complain too.
my works it dose same thing day 1 I love the tourk my drill had my dcd771 model number
okay, I didn't know that the placement of the led light was an issue. I'm not sure of what else to suggest...
No suggestions needed. It was an observation in my first review video when I got this set. The light being under the chuck I had problems seeing the mark where I was wanting to drill and tip of the drill bit due to the shadow the light cast because of it position under the chuck. And I noted if they relocated it down by the battery and shine up that would eliminate that problem. So if I was to go to another brand the same problem would follow. But now the New DeWalt’s have the light down by the battery but I can’t afford the price. I LOVE my DeWalt planner and miter saw. I’m almost speechless for my Milwaukee M18 finish nail gun. I like it SOO much i got another. I don’t believe any one brand is the best. Every brand has its high and low tools.
I just bought 2 of these DCD771C2 drill from Lowes. They both had that noise. I have had several DeWalt drillsl before this and none of them made that noise. I took these drill back to Lowes and they refunded me with no hassel. Good for Lowes, shame on DeWalt.
Spartian good for you. I've taken a LOT of grief for not liking the noise. But we all have our personal likes and dislikes. I personally just didn't like it. rearguardless if that is how it is suppose to sound. I still think they could of came up with a better design.So I CHOSE to put my dewalt aside and i bought a brushless Porter Cable and absolutely love it. I know brushless isn't the same level as a brushed but for about $100 less vs. the brushless dewalt for as much as i use the drill i will always recommend the PC for the average homeowner and weekend DIY'er but if I was doing a LOT of drill related work I'd go with Milwaukee brushless for the contractor grade tool for the drill driver. Thank you for viewing and great comment.
The Shack i still dont like the noise i got me a manufacturers refurbish kit to do small jobs it really dont have much more power then my older ni-cds that i own two of its just convenient with the wait of it in size
The Shack OSHA brake to not over heat the lithium battery cells it's normal
If the sound bothers you that much, get rid of it, At the end of the day your going to have to deal with that crazy sound. It's not worth the frustration everytime you use the drill.
I have the 20v dcd771 and it only makes that sound is speed 2. Speed 1 is quiet
i got the DCD970 and i just love it, i am online tonight looking to buy one for my son cause he loves it, I live in Temple Texas and our lowes returns or replaces stuff with no problems
Did you update to the latest firmware update via USB?
These are before that capability . So no they are just plain drill driver impact driver
The noise is from the brake. You were in just the right trigger position where the brake wants to apply but also wants to keep drilling.
lol
it's the sound it makes when the chuck is stopped.
Just the sound of the brake engaging. Drill works great, but if the sound bothers you, switch to another brand.
+Wayne Reichert I love DeWalt. I picked up a DeWalt 12" duel sliding compound miter saw which ill try to unbox this week. After a few weeks of use with the new drill I never heard that sound again only the slight click. DeWalt and Milwaukee are my top 2 tool choices.
that is the sound of the clutch brake , it is the stop the drill from spinning , that is not a feature on all it's models
The first was defective this new one after about a month is much quieter and only does the click and stops, as it is designed to do. I'm just waiting for Milwaukee to go to a 3 LED design and I'll most likely grab one and put this as a back up or donate it. So I'll just wait and see. Thanks Steve for viewing and for commenting.
That is a electric brake on the motor i own 6 of the same drills no problems with them
I have the same drill which I bought for $99. I also have the better combo kit which has the same impact driver. My drill makes the same sound when I take my finger off the trigger. that's the automatic brake but you got to remember its their cheapest regular driver. the better one doesn't have that sound. My question for this is this, does anyone notice a smell that comes out of the impact driver? its not just mine either. I'm in construction and meet a lot of Dewalt guys and almost all of them noticed the smell. its a slight foodie type of smell.
+cory0814
That drill was faulty. The new on doens't make the sound nearly as bad just the normal click. As the smell, it's funny my Porter Cable also a smell as well. My DeWalt almost smells like a slight wire plastic kinda burning weird smell. Thought it might be a break in thing but even after a few months of use i still catch the smell here and there.
Can you use a spade driver with an impact driver drill?
Red Gemini Arts Red Gemini Arts I would only use them for something like the outlet or light switch cover. I would not use them on an impact situation. It will twist to Easley or even possibly break. I would only use star tip, torque tips, square tip or Phillips for impact situation not a spade tip.
The Shack thank you
its normal mine does it too and I thought it was bad at 1st its not its normal
+Kenny Smith
The drill in the video was faulty. I took it back and the new one did make the click but not the grinding sound as the other one did.
Just the luck of the draw, must have been assembled on a Monday.
I just bought 2...one does it, the other doesn't. I noticed that it only does it when the switch on the top is switched back, in the 2 position. When it's forward, in position 1, it doesn't do it.
It's only when in 2nd Gear whether it's Dewalt or Milwaukee...
Just bought the dcd771 dewalt drill from Amazon I almost fell like the drill is fake that's y I'm looking around..
Danny hope you find what you need. The DeWalt is OK but I'm not impressed. for the price I like Porter Cable. Some of the new Milwaukee is great. Just choose what you like for what you want to pay don't worry what others think. If you like it that is all that counts, Good Luck in your hunt.
Sounds bad to me too, sounds like one going out.
That's the chuck. If you put it on the drill setting, the sound will stop.
l would like to suggest and buy a Milwaukee, and also email this video to dewalt. also, not to put black&decker down cause I have a black&decker rotary tool and love it, but black&decker and dewalt are the same company, and dewalt is serviced by black&decker...
Michael I would love to purchase a Milwaukee but DeWalt, PC and Milwaukee all have the same flaw. I don’t like the light under the chuck. Now! The new DeWalt brushless have moved the light to the top of the battery but I can't afford $300 for a drill. If PC or Milwaukee would move their lights on the drill and incorporate the 3 LED light into their impacts id drop these in a heartbeat.Thank you sir for viewing
Milwaukee does the same thing in 2nd Gear as The Dewalt in 2nd Gear...
it sounds like more rpm sir... ;)
My god it's a little sound! The chuck brake makes that sound just a little sound!
+Tj Greene Yea, I was just a bit upset over the whole thing. The first one was faulty. Dealing with Lowe’s added to the confusion. Plus my Older DeWalt never made that noise. I was a little surprised that the new DeWalt was just the way it was.
I used mine one time, tool smoked and stopped working. Took it apart and found cooling cage had fallen off the motor and filled the housing with shrapnel. I do not recommend. New motor is is 3/4 price of tool.
My drill must be 20 yrs old, i have to recharge it after every hole.Most of the time I pull the trigger it is silent and motionless.
In my opinion, they can do better, because obviously they already have, we have the right to be fussy, I am too.
It sounds to me like it is just part of the operation of this model , if you can't live with it return it and get another brand . It wouldn't bother me as long as it works the way it's suposed to.
Actually Ronnie i did about 3 months ago Lowe's had Porter Cable brushless drill on sale and i grabbed one and love it. The DeWalt impact is OK just got tired of the noise of the drill. Sometimes it's the little things that make a difference.Thanks for viewing and i appreciate the input
It's because it has high rpms so it has to stop when it stops its going fast on one it won't do it
90 day return via dewalt with receipt
Show lowes on the side of the box
Its normal brushless is a lot more rpm
First drill no thats not right
Thank you for the input. I agree the first one was truly faulty. I like DeWalt and have decided to keep it.
Anybody else's dewalt xr hammer drill's chuck blow ass? Drill bits just won't stay in
Buy MAKITA quality is better,Also the batteries fit loose on most of the newer DEWALT drills,especially on the DCD 790 and DCD 995 , machining not to good.
+mateollios 67 I agree. DeWalt has or seems to have lost their edge on quality. Makita was my very first cordless drill back in the day. OMG i dont remember im thinking 1980s with that long battery. I used the hell out of that thing hanging door on cabinets in the field. Thanks for viewing and the comment.
perfectly normal when you don't understand how it works to be concerned
it has a fast electrónic brake. thats the chuck bouncing back and fourth
take it back try porter cable or if u wan't ryobi makita rigid millwakee or bosch
The drill did break in after a month or so it did quite down. Now when I release the trigger it only makes a click when the clutch break engages. Big improvement . I also have a Porter Cable and Ridgid impacts I really like my PC but I wish that Milwaukee and PC would incorporate the 3 LED into their design.
I have the P-C drill and impact the both have balls to drill and drive screws
I've got this drill I don't mind the sound.
+Mao Loves ZeDong The first was faulty. The new one after a month or so is fine just a click when the clutch break kicks in not even noticeable anymore. Thank you for viewing and thanks for the comment.
The Shack I'll probably get the impact driver too. I was wondering have you tried the knock off dewalt battery's I've seen them on ebay 4ah batterys for around £30?
+Mao Loves ZeDong personally I wouldn't buy aftermarket. I bought some for my old DeWalt and had issues with it fitting in the charger and charge time. Now I'll only buy factory replacement batteries. Unless you but the tool only it should come with charger and 2 batteries
I'm sorry you had that experience - you have to use your resources, Twitter, Facebook and corporate office. Also, stop shopping at their stores and post your video on Twitter and add them to your feed. They will see how many people won't shop with them anymore. Lowes is NOT a replacement for Homedepot. Service is KING and so is MONEY.
Personally, send it back! To me there is something wrong with the design and Dewalt should address this problem! I love Dewalt tools but, I couldn't accept this!
I did return it but took some doing. Unfortunately I got this through Lowes and took 3 different stores till I found someone smarter that a 3rd grader to know how to return it. But the new one in the vid calmed down and only has the click when the break clutch engages. So it's ok. I have nothing but phrase for my planer and sliding compound miter saw, DeWalt, just a faulty drill.
Thank you for the comment and viewing
How about not worry about how it sounds and how it works. We aren’t using our ears to build stuff we are using our brawn. What is work with yo
I've had mine for9 or 10 months and have never heard that from it! Different charge rates, speeds etc, I can't get mine to make that noise
Send it back
Not normal. I have had mine for 3 years never heard that horrible noise
Get some new earplugs that should get rid off the sound....seems like ur a Milwaukee fan...
I will NEVER shop at Lowes thanks to this video.
Red Gemini I haven’t been back since. The people there are (at least the stores in my general area) more concerned with just waiting to go home than actually helping the customer. One time I went to get some paint for a customer and asked a lady to call for assistance after 10 minutes and another person showing up also needing help I walked back to the check out stood there and just stared at the lady. She was so busy on her phone she never noticed me. I stood there for at least 7-8 minutes before she finally noticed me. Looking a bit surprised she asked if she could help I said “no I’m sorry I interrupted your phone time.” sat some items I had with me on her counter and then said “There isn’t anyone helping us and your evidently too busy on your phone to bother with customers so as much as I DON’T like Home Depot they just got a new customer.” They lost a $300 sale and many thousands since. These are my experiences. Don’t make a diction based on my bad experiences as I said it’s the stores in my area they could be better elsewhere. Draw your own conclusion. Thank you for viewing and I always appreciate the comments.
its normal it has a electrical clutch nothing is wrong with it i use mine every day and abuse the crap out of it so just chill dude i can give u proof
The new on only makes a click when trigger is released. This I can deal with. But am convinced the other was faulty. Sounded like metal flopping around in a garage disposal. I'm going to keep it.
Thank you sir for the input
no problem enjoy
It's supposed to do that
get a brushless model.
It's not a Brushless
Forget about it.... my batteries died after three hours of total use... and they won’t hold a charge... i won’t be back.
there is something wrong with the braking system and the gearing. thats what your noise is. I'd return it for replacement or spend $20 more and get the 5x better brushless motor combo. don't be a cheapo. $20 is worth the years you'll have the drill pansy.
Take it back and get a milwaukee
Go to Sear
It's a $100 drill. Run it in the ground! Doesn't really bother me.
STOP hold it right there Mr Milwaukee great Makita better get a Makita
+Max Sledge If i change it will be for a Milwaukee drill. Just my thing. Not impressed with DeWalt drills lately
Lol different noise means a drill sucks? You heard it here first folks, if anything you ever own in your life changes noises slightly it’s automatically a piece of crap.
Its not brushless
If you do not like the sound stop whining about it and take it back.
The Dewalt is way better I've had all the brands Dewalt and Makita are the best
+Tj Greene I Have many DeWalt tools I love them. My next tool would be Milwaukee. These are my top 2 tools. I have to say i just did a review on a brushless Ridgid pulse driver and i like the way the brushless design sounds and works. Ridgid isn't nearly the torque of DeWalt but i just like the feel of brushless. I'll wait for the cost to come down a little but i will buy the brushless over brush for now on
Why are you crying here and not in the DeWalt service center? Seems to be the problem with the particular unit. The screwdriver model is still great in 2019.
Dewalt is good, I don't care about this noise
Complaining about a noise that's nonessential to the functionality of the tool is kinda odd. If they "fix" this issue you're complaining about, you'd pay for that in the return product. Also, if you don't have the money to buy a more expensive unit, why have you stated in a previous line you'll wait to get another one when it comes out & use this "noisy" one as a spare or donate it? Sounds like you've got money & you're just complaining because you found an outlet to mass complain to.....
Lol
