Does anyone have a clue what the difference is between a DCD790 Type 1, 2, and 3 model?

This Brushless tool really hasn't been out all that long compared to a lot of other tools on the market and it apparently has already had some type of changes made to it few times.

I belive Jasonc is correct, will be interested to read what GatorB says.

 

I think on my DW788 Scroll Saw, the Type -1 (the most desired model) was Made in Canada - and the Type 2 was made elsewhere.

Well I kind of thought the same thing. There has to be something different in the design for them to designate a different type number. I'm wondering if it has anything to do with the chuck. I check out the chucks on the DCD790 in every store I go into that sells them. I've noticed that if you try to spin the chuck with your hand in either direction it barely moves then stops like there's a lot of resistance. The Type 3 I checked out had the same style chuck but you can spin it and it spins several revelutions before coming to a stop. Might not sound like a big deal but the one that spins easier feels a lot smoother than all the tighter ones I've seen on Type 1 and 2 models.
