Does the DCN220B come with a battery?

No. It is a bare tool, so you need a separate 20V MAX battery and charger.

What nails does it use?

It takes 16-gauge straight finish nails, the same style as many pneumatic 16-gauge trim nailers.

How does it compare with a pneumatic finish nailer?

It removes the hose and compressor and is faster to set up, but it is heavier and limited by battery runtime.

Can it sink nails into hardwoods?

It handles typical trim materials; very dense hardwoods may need a depth adjustment and a fresh battery.

Is it good for cabinet and crown work?

Yes. The 3.1-inch body and straight magazine make it easier to place in tight trim areas.
