          Lots of Power and Battery time!!
          The Dewalt Drill arrived attached with the 5ah battery in the case and with the other battery you can tackle any project without worries of running out of juice anytime soon. The Hammer Drill has tons of torque and will drill through pretty much anything. It is a little heavy but of course that is expected with a drill with this much power. It has a great feel and light weight. I would definitely recommend this driver. It has been a great addition to my Dewalt collection.

            See my video on this & the brightness of the LED's
            I just got this DeWALT 20 Volt MAX Cordless Combo Kit 6 tool with 2-20 Volt 5.0Ah Batteries & 1-Charger mdl# DCK694P2 I will leave a review when I have tested it for a bit, but I will leave a review after using all tools for a month or two. I examined them & they are constructed with high quality parts & materials. The bag has great stitching, a nice zipper & several pockets on the inside & outside for accessories & parts. The LED's are very bright! See my video at https://youtu.be/K5eyfZTfsJA.

              Drill and Hammer to your hearts content.
              This drill is awesome. I've used it around the house and also on my ice auger. I have been ice fishing 4 times and probably cut 50 holes without any problems. Unfortunately we havent gotten many fish, but thats not the drills fault.

              it is not made in US..
              Ordered as tool made in USA. Web descriotion says “built in USA” and look for this logo, but all I can see “ Made in Mexico”... that is the reason I ordered from Home depot, to get US built tool, cause the better deals elsewhere... returning.

                Broke when I clipped it on my belt
                Not impressed with the quality of Dewalt lately. I have been using Dewalt for the past 15 years and noticed the quality of the tools has gone down dramatically. This 240 dollar impact broke after clipping it to my tool belt. I take care of my tools. It wasn't dropped or anything like that. It just broke.

                  What a beast! I needed a hammer drill for a one-time project...installing an above ground storm shelter that required drilling 12 holes into my concrete patio. I purchased the bare tool and used one of the DeWalt 20V 5AH batteries that I already owned for my other DeWalt tools. (The batteries might be even more impressive than the drill.) The DeWalt handled that task with ease. It's small size is deceiving because it packs a massive amount of capability in a compact, light package. It runs smoothly and never bogged down despite the fact I was applying a LOT of pressure during drilling. The drill did get very hot but it never showed signs of quitting. The chuck was easy to operate and held the drill bit securely at all times. Easy to tighten and to release bits. The LED light is actually effective, too. It's actually got a switch to adjust the brightness levels and it's very bright on the highest setting. It's also located where it can be effectively used. A few of the holes had to be drilled from inside with no light. The LED light on the drill made the darkened interior a non-issue. One of the best things about this drill is it's Made in the USA! That's important to me. The drill comes with an adjustable side-handle. For my purposes the handle was pretty much useless. The handle extends too far from the drill to really assist with leverage in my opinion. I needed to be able to apply pressure closer to the drill and handle was more of a hindrance. Also, the retention ring on the handle near the drill end (that keeps your hand from sliding towards the drill) is very thin and the edge of it is quite sharp when you move your hand closer to the drill to apply downward pressure. I wound up taking the handle off. Pay attention, DeWalt...the design of your handle needs some work. This may not be a professional-grade drill for someone needing to drill holes in concrete every day of the week. But for the avid DIY'er like me, it's likely more than I really need. But the price is right and the performance is exceptional. Highly recommended.

                    Dewalt fan for life
                    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have this tool and many others for years. Dewalt has always been my go to company and I am a die hard fan. I cant wait to pick up the dcd998; to think that it has more power than the dcd996 is scary.
