        Answer This Question

        Yes, since it also functions as a regular drill. It?s nice to have the hammer option if needed.

          Will larger batteries fit in the molded case that comes with this kit? I see that this set comes with (2) 2.0 batteries but I would like to put larger 4.0 batteries in the case but wanted to see if they would fit.

          Answer This Question

          I had to cut away some interior plastic with my Dewalt cordless multi tool to make a 3.0 battery fit within the case. 

          By|Apr 25, 2022

            There seems to be enough room in the case to hold a larger battery. But while the hard case looks cool and does a good job protecting the drill, charger, and spare battery, there’s not enough room in the case to adequately hold bits and small drill case if you have the larger batteries. I use the smaller battery, which allows me the space to also include those extras. You might want to consider a soft sided bag instead.

              I have older 20V 3.0 ah batteries (non XR or flex). Can they be used with this drill or other new XR drills? I would like to replace my drill only, batteries are still ok.

              Answer This Question

              Dear Customer, It is recommended to use the Dewalt batteries for better performance and better fit. You can find the batteries on the site however we do recommend to buy the kits since most of them already include batteries.

                Does this come with drill bits to hang framed art in concrete walls?

                No. You will have to buy the bits you need separately.

                By|Jul 18, 2020

                No, the kit does not include any bits.

                By|Jul 20, 2020

                No drill bits included

                By|Jul 20, 2020

                  No drill bits are included. Mason bits are sold separately.

                      Great long lasting drill
                      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had this drill for 5+ years. Used it on everything from wood to stone to concrete and brick. Does everything I need when I need it. Enough power to rip it out of your hand.

                        DCD 796 CHUCK WILL NOT ADJUST!!
                        I have NOTHING but success with numerous DEWALT corded (C) and cordless (CL) tools from drills, hammer drills, reciprocating saws, circular saws (C&CL) , as well as, 20V weed-eaters, hedge trimmers, chain saws and a two section DEWALT tool box. However, my DCD 796 has minimum use and the chuck unit will not open and close to secure any type of bits. The three attached pics will show its limited use. Please advise. I need it repaired ASAP! My RATINGS indicate my unwavering satisfaction with my other DEWALT Products NOT my DCD 796! I have also purchased the adapters to convert some of tools to 20v Max and have been pleased with the performance.

                          GET'R DONE !
                          [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this drill to replace my 18V drill I had for at least 20 years before it finally bit the dust. I'm an engineer and licensed contractor and I love to build stuff. This new 20v drill is new and improved from my 18V drill. I demand a lot out of it and it always stands up to the test. I liked it so much I went out and bought a second one so I could have a drill bit in one for drilling holes and a star bit in the other one to install screws. I would strongly recommend this drill to anyone looking to buy a new drill.

                            3 Years of durability and still doing well!
                            [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased the DCD796 Hammer Drill and have used it the past 3 years. I’m happy with the quality and performance of the tool based on my high level of use in a DIY capacity and considering it’s still going strong after 3 years I think the durability speaks for itself. The hammer function has been excellent for the countless projects I’ve tackled drilling brick and concrete. Im most impressed that the chuck has had no issues after it’s seen it fair share of abuse between drops and day to day use over 3 years.

                              Fantastic!!
                              [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve had this drill for close to 3 years now. I am pleased to say that it is still going strong. I think it is definitely nicer quality than the other drills with the plastic chucks. The hammer setting comes in handy in a pinch, but I usually just use my DeWalt 20V SDS Max. I would recommend this drill because with it lasting as long as it has, I’ve definitely gotten my moneys worth out of it. I just keep on sending it harder and harder, and it just refuses to quit on me!

                                Slips out of hammer function
                                Tons of power and feels great in hand. Bad part is only after 2 days of using the hammer drill function it quit working correctly. Every time I try to use the hammer function it slips out of hammer mode into regular drill mode. This is very frustrating and makes the function virtually useless.
