- Is this impact driver good for deck building?
- Yes. It has enough torque for deck screws and lag bolts, and the compact head reaches between joists. For long days, pair it with a larger capacity 20V MAX battery.
- Does it come with a battery and charger?
- Yes, it is a kit, so it includes a 20V MAX battery and a charger. Check which battery size the kit ships with, since compact and high-capacity packs differ in runtime.
- Can I use my existing DeWalt 20V MAX batteries?
- Yes. It runs on any DeWalt 20V MAX battery, so it fits owners already on that platform. Older 18V batteries do not fit.
- What is the difference between this and a drill/driver?
- An impact driver delivers short rotational blows for driving screws with less wrist strain. It takes hex-shank bits only, so it does not replace a drill for holes or round-shank bits.
- Is brushless worth it over the brushed version?
- Brushless motors run cooler, last longer and give more runtime per charge. The brushed model is cheaper but heavier on batteries and motor life.
- What bits does it accept?
- It uses standard 1/4-inch hex-shank bits. Round-shank drill bits and socket adapters need a hex shank or a separate adapter.
- Where is the Dewalt 20V MAX Cordless Brushless Impact Driver Kit cheapest?
- At The Home Depot, for $368.00, as of our latest check.
