Is the DeWalt DCF901 powerful enough for lug nuts?

For light passenger-car lug nuts torqued to normal specs it can work, but it is not built for truck or heavily torqued fasteners. An 18V or 20V impact wrench is the safer choice for those.

What comes in the box?

The kit includes the DCF901 impact wrench, one 3.0Ah 12V battery, a charger and a carrying case.

Does it use DeWalt's 12V batteries?

Yes. It runs on DeWalt's 12V MAX battery platform, so packs you already own for other 12V DeWalt tools will fit.

Does it have a work light or speed settings?

No. This model has no LED light and no multiple speed gears; it has a single forward/reverse control.

How does it compare with DeWalt's 18V impact wrenches?

It is smaller and lighter but delivers much less torque. Choose it for tight spaces and light fastening, and the 18V line for heavy automotive work.
