Not lengthy immediately after their release of the immensely widely used 12V MAX line, this September DEWALT is dropping yet another bomb on the power tool community. In the form of a remastered 20V line of compact and innovative power tools, DEWALT intends to make your function-load lighter and your time on the job far more comfy and much more effective.
The new 20V MAX line contains seven power tools (and a worklight) redesigned, basically, from the ground up: the DCD740C1 compact suitable angle drill kit, the DCD780C2 compact drill-driver kit (1.five-Ah), the DCD785C2 compact hammer-drill-driver kit, the DCD980L2 premium drill-driver kit (three.0-Ah), the DCD985L2 premium hammer-drill-driver kit, the DCF885C2 compact 1/4" impact driver kit (1.five-Ah), DCF885L2 1/4" impact driver kit (three.0-Ah), the DCS380L1 reciprocating saw kit (three.0-Ah), the DCS391L1 circular saw kit (three.0-Ah), the DCH213L2 three-mode SDS rotary hammer kit (three.0-Ah), and the DCL040 LCD worklight.
Of course, with this release there are additional than a handful of issues that need mentioning, I, even so, really feel obligated to start with the actual voltage of the tools themselves. A large number of of you could possibly be questioning that 20V badge that introduces these power tools and the truth of it is, in spite of that label, the 20V line but produces the very same 18V of power. The initial battery voltage might pretty nicely be 20V, then again the nominal voltage, or the actual voltage output, is however the regular 18V, no distinct from DEWALT's former 18V platform (that debuted in 1996) and no unique from the 18V lines of competing producers.
I must also note that as opposed to the earlier 18V platform's concentrate on backwards compatibility, the 20V MAX battery is not compatible with DEWALT's other 18V volt stem-design battery technique. Coming in a 1.five-Ah and a three.0-Ah version, although, the 20V batteries are compatible with every single other (so to speak); they can be charged from the exact same charger and can be applied interchangeably among 20V MAX tools. In other words, whether or not your drill-driver came with a three.0-Ah or a 1.five-Ah battery, you can use either battery with that tool and you can charge each batteries in the identical location.
These 20V batteries also come with a three-year warranty and boast up to 35% longer run-time and up to 57% quicker charging cycles. The batteries, with their slide-on really than stem-up design, are also significantly lighter-weight and contribute considerably to the tools' overall ergonomics. In component, these batteries are so a lot extra compact considering that their module (or the electronics that manage them) has been moved out of the actual battery and into the tool. This renders the battery far more effective and much less high priced to the end-user.
So, regardless of that bit of tricksy name-gaming (which, according to DEWALT, is strictly to prevent compatibility confusion), the power tools of the new MAX release provide notable innovations that then again separate the 20V MAX line from the former (however definitely not gone or forgotten) 18V platform.
For starters, and also like the 12V MAX line, these 20V tools are compact and streamlined for a thinner, way more ergonomic grip and for altogether much better comfort on the job. Certain, the speed and power improvements of these 20 volters are modest to say the least, even so the tools' ergonomics and cosmetic enhancements are not to shake a stick at. Every single tool is ideally balanced and boasts a lightweight and compact design comfy for extended, awkward, or close-quarter applications. DEWALT has also incorporated three-LED lights to improve visibility and accuracy in practically any operating condition.
DEWALT's 20V line is high-efficiency and, with no a doubt, takes that high-efficiency normal seriously. These tools are aggressive however smooth, strong even so controllable, and they give a sleek specialist power tool to those seeking to upgrade their current 18V equipment or for those who merely have a bug for fancy power tools. For those who have no interest in this new line, then again, DEWALT claims they will preserve the former 18V platform and continue enhancing upon it (inside the limits of its stem-design battery design) till the require for this platform disappears.
