i know its all personal preference, but i cant stand right bladed saws. always have to lean over to see the line. lol

no luck finding the radio at my local store. and the website doesnt show anything either. i guess i'll have to be patient.

i'm curious as to where you guys use or need a 1/2" drive compact impact.

nice. i'll have to swing by my local store.

if you're going to use 1/2", you might as well get the new dewalt dcf899. it has a ton of power.

wow. 7.5ah batteries! i like it!

in store? i dont see anything on their site.

thats awesome

DWST08810 but when will it be available?

but most users, and pros especially, will have 20v(18v) systems. so it seems odd to design a laser to be used by pros, with a 12v battery.

do they even sell 12v anymore here in the US? lol

why you guys always teasing???

looks nice. i wonder how it compares in size to the cordless paslode.

a router would definetly be nice, especially if it was powerful enough to run a flush cut panel bit for framing.

i hate it when dewalt does a major change like a different motor, but keeps the model number the same. i've seen table saws and miter saws go from 13amp to 15amp, with only a type change. cordless 20v saw and sawzall go to higher rpms with only a type change. etc.

can we get a clue??

those of you in the know, spill it. lol

and the sawzall is generic. it doesnt have the 4 way blade head and adjustable foot. only 3.0ah batteries too. overall a generic kit.

what kind of site was this?? where you located?

the 36 volt have a bit more power and are rated to drill a little bit bigger hole. 5/8" vs 1/2" if you're mainly drilling smaller holes, then the 20v would be fine. or go all out and get a 36v dch363 or dch364!

well dewalt does or did make lithium 18v batteries.

just let the old 18 volt system die. no reason to keep spending money on it. lol

i can understand not to have a lot of grease, but to have absolutely none on the anvil?? even just a dab with a finger would have been way better than nothing. when the impact was making the chattering noise, it would go away when i pressed in on the anvil tip while running, plus seeing the wear dust, so thats when i figured i better open it up to see whats going on. its just kind of a shame, that with as nicely designed this impact is, that it makes it out the factory(blame china, lol) without the simplest of things(grease).

i just bought a dewalt dcf899 impact wrench. its a nice tool, but why no grease in it?? i literally used it one time to change my mower blades, and then it started making an aweful noise and chatter when free spinning with no load. i noticed right at the anvil shaft that there was some black fine powder. so i decided to take it apart and low and behold, hardly any grease inside. and absolutely no grease at all on the anvil shaft or the bushing in the case. it seems to be a common theme with dewalts to be under greased, but this is ridiculous. and i'd hate to think how many other of these impacts have no grease. by the way, the impact works real smooth now, after i added grease. i'm just not happy about the premature wear from running with no grease.

do you guys mind that these drills only have 2 speeds? that is one thing nice about the dewalts...3 speed.
