        The DCD800P1 will feature up to 2,000 rpm when drilling into wood and metal. It should work great for these applications.

          does the DCD800 have "power detect" or "anti rotation" to stop the rotation if the bit jams? If not can you recommend another model that does? Thanks

                Difference between drill driver and drill
                ByOct 10, 2024
                1 Answer | 
                Answer This Question

                A drill driver and a drill have different strengths and uses: Drill: Primarily designed to drill holes in various materials like wood, metal, and plastic. It focuses on rotating bits to create holes. It may or may not have a hammer function for drilling into masonry. Drill Driver: Combines the functionality of a drill with the ability to drive screws and fasteners. It's more versatile and often has a clutch to adjust the torque, preventing overdriving screws or damaging materials.

                  Shorty Drill
                  [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The light is perfect. It projects exactly where needed. It is even bright enough to use as a flashlight. The drill is about one inch shorter and makes it easier to work in tight places. The drill seems a bit heavier than others but is balanced nicely with a 5 amp hour battery.

                    Fantastic Drill
                    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This drill is great. It’s so much smaller and more compact than my other drills but hasn’t lost any power. It honestly has more torque I believe than my larger drills. Great power in a small drill. I can sometimes be working with a drill in my hand for hours and the dewalt grip is so comfortable. There’s no hammer function, but I prefer that to be the case. Has an adjustable light that you can change the angle of the light to accommodate whatever situation you’re putting it in which I also like. Overall I am very happy with the drill and it fits my needs perfectly.

                      Great All Purpose Drill
                      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was excited to try DeWalt's new 1/2" drill/driver because this is an area in which DeWalt's 20v tools have fallen short in the past. I have several DCD996 1/2" hammer drills, which are excellent but bulky. The price has come way down but my first was very, very expensive. They can do anything but it was overkill and it's wear and tear on expensive tools. I have a few bottom and mid-level 20v DeWalt drills and they are all gutless, especially the angle drill. It's been frustrating. However, this DCD800 fits the bill perfectly, and it does so at entry level pricing. It's not tiny but it's much smaller than the 996. It's burly, though, easily pushing twist drills and paddle bits, mixing paint, and stirring joint compound. The controls are where you'd expect them and work the same as any other DW drill/driver. The big surprise is the light: it's very bright. It's also entirely intuitive, requiring no learning curve. This DCD800 has already moved into a permanent place among the tools that stay in the truck at all times. I'll be buying another for the shop. I highly recommend this drill for private and professional use as a primary all purpose cordless drill.

                        Compact Power!
                        By far my nicest DeWalt drill. The power to size and weight ratio is incredible! It's also stronger than the dcd791 like they say. Even the light is better and insanely bright on the top setting. And for so much for milwacky saying they have the shortest drill. The metal chuck is very high quality as well as the trigger. I've used it mainly for metal drilling and sanding away rust with a hub attachment. Seems a little quieter than the 791 too. I don't think i would change a thing about this drill. Keep it up DeWalt!!

                          Brushless Cordless1/2in. Drill/Driver Review
                          [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product is light weight and fits well in my hand. It uses all batteries from my other Dewalt cordless tools. It has adequate power for home jobs. The battery has lasted for all my jobs when I start with a fully charged battery.

                            Awesome drill!
                            [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Received this product from Dewalt and boy was I amazed! This new design isn’t only smaller and easier to use but there is so much power that comes from this drill I used it to install my new door handles and kitchen cabinets and it blew my mind. I wouldn’t change a thing about it and just really happy with this product

                              Upgraded and improved Cordless drill model
                              [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Impressed with the upgraded features from the older DCD771 model cordless drill: the shorter more compact head can get into tighter spaces, the adjustable brightness LED light now on bottom with ability to adjust the direction, and the redesigned tool bit chuck which you hand twist much tighter with its ratchet like mechanism. I am mostly an advanced DIY I would say, but I’m now a regular volunteer out at Habitat for Humanity building houses - this drill has held up great during use all day long, only changing the battery once. The belt clip is a plus to keep it handy. Another quality Dewalt product!

                                Great product!
                                [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have a family tradition that each newborn get a custom rocking horse for their 1st Christmas or 1st Birthday. So this year I was able to make two of them for my twin grandsons. I still have to finish them with some adds but the wood working part is completed. I was able to use my new 20v max drill driver on the various applications in the assembly process. I had to drill and dowle pin mutiple locations for the assembly. This drill is so powerful and light weight that it made this process really easy. To hold , mutilple pieces and drill them accuratley can be challenging however with the compact size and light weight of this drill it was really a breeze. They are made with southern yellow pine which can be tough to drill due to the grains. Also,I had to predrill for the accessories pins with a 1/16" drill bit. It locked securley into the chuck and never broke a bit!. Paired with the 60 v battery I never had to change a battery in making 2 of these. Not to mention I also took this to work and was drilling out 2 1/8" holes in Southern yellow Pine with a forstner bit. I would highly recommend this drill to any homeowner or skilled professional. It is a great asset to anyones toolbox! I typically use my tools in my commercial construction business so they are used pretty hard and really put to the test! Thanks Dewalt for another great product!

                                  New Favorite Drill!
                                  [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I own a small woodworking company and have used drills from multiple companies over the years. Most of the work I do doesn’t call for heavy hammer drills, so I’m mostly looking for something light, comfortable, but with enough power to get any job done (I know, sounds like the perfect tool, right??). For years my favorite drills were my Milwaukee 12 volt and Dewalt DCD791. Well, after using the new DCD800 for a couple weeks it has instantly become my go to! It has just as much power as any other drill I have and comes in a smaller package. I really like the adjustable LED light which is a fantastic addition. The more compact size compared to my other Dewalt drills makes it easier to use for an entire day. This drill has certainly been a great addition to my shop!

                                    A drill with stamina.
                                    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Had occasion to use my new DEWALT drill for a tough job to test it out. We relocated some warehouse racking and needed to anchor the legs into the concrete floor. This small job required eight anchor bolt holes to be drilled. The new DEWALT drill performed at full power for all eight holes in commercial concrete. Surprised me that it would go the distance for a battery drill in concrete. It had a 9ah battery.
