Our verdict

A battery-powered DeWalt drill with a very short listing: voltage, amperage, speed and weight only. Chuck size, torque and whether a battery comes with it are not stated.

Overview

A battery-fed motor turns the chuck of this DeWalt drill, and the listing gives voltage, amperage, speed and weight but no chuck size or torque. It is described as battery powered, so there is no cord to manage.

Going cordless removes the outlet and extension cord from the job, which helps on roofs, fences and open sites. The limitation is the thin listing: no chuck, torque, battery or charger details are given.

Who it's for

Drilling work away from power, from fence posts to framing, is where a battery tool like this belongs. Someone who needs a specified chuck size or a listed battery and charger kit should compare listings that state them.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Cordless, no outlet needed
  • Voltage and amperage stated
  • Speed figure given
  • Dimensions and weight given
Cons
  • Chuck size not listed
  • Torque rating absent
  • Battery and charger status unclear
  • Drill type left unstated

Performance notes

Motor speed and the battery's current output set how fast the bit turns under load. With only a single speed figure listed, expect it to slow as resistance rises. Weight matters over long jobs, since a heavier body tires the arm sooner.
