    TRUE STORY!
    I went into home Depot today on a BROWSING ONLY trip just too look at new drills cause I was planning on one in next couple weeks. long story short, the manager was in some type of mood and when I told her I just started new job and was getting one next week she literally gave it to me. I didn't get to pick obviously but she grabbed the DeWalt kit driver&impact with the hard case. I just needed a driver & impact at my new job and idk why she would ever. nothing like that ever happens to me. I followed her to a register, clipped tag, I was like what are you doing seriously stop. and she insisted saying her heart told her to do it and just had a feeling. I'm blessed and more than lucky. I don't remember her name but THANK YOU. I plan on going back tomorrow to extend my thanks. people can be so amazing

    @johnharris5508 5 років тому +1

    Good review thank you. Not sure of the cost difference but the speed control on XR model is REALLY nice. It isn’t as much the top end power, because as you have demonstrated, it has no problem driving in a 4” lag. It is more about being able to control the power putting screws into wood that could split, or not snapping the head off a 2” 8 screw into a 2x4.

    I payed 89 bucks for my 885 on sale a while back at Lowe's. Came with 1.5 battery and charger with bag. Already had several other DeWalt 20V batteries and chargers from other tools I own so I prefer the smaller battery. Due to weight of the batteries of course. I've completed lots of projects around the house with it. Including a 12 by 24 ft. shed. No complaints so far.

  • @SouthernGuy8503
    @SouthernGuy8503 7 років тому +1

    This came in a combo kit I bought and the only thing I don't like about it is that it doesn't have enough TQ to remove a truck lugnut that's TQed at 140. I know it's not what it really made for unless it's about 110 ft lbs or less. But, I did just order the DCF889 impact wrench late last week that will have no problem with the 140 ft/ibs even on the low (1) setting. I'll probably use the wrench to undo lugs and the driver to install the lugs so I can still TQ them down with a TQ wrench without going over if I used the impact wrench.

I really like it.. one question though, does the led lights on the front kinda flicker whenever you press the trigger?? Mine are doing it but I don’t notice it on any of my other drills or impacts, but they are brushless and this is brushed.. I didn’t know if it had to do with being brushed or not??

      @scottelia8723 3 роки тому

      @damien D honestly bro, I love it. If you taking lug nuts off 120 ft or less it should get them off. If they are over that I would recommend an impact wrench. Honestly tho, It can do lug nuts no prob. Just make sure to use an impact socket as a regular one can either shatter from the impacts or not remove them at all due to the weight and materials of the socket. But I think for the track it could get you by, yet I would still recommend an impact wrench. Check out the 1/2 or 3/8 for $115, and $119. I use my atomic to remove lug nuts no issue.
