Fan is variable speeds and with the 20v max lithium lon 5ah battery it will run for over 12 hours on low speed. I pick this one over all the others because of the battery life and compatibility with my power tools I already own.

This was a necessary purchase while doing disaster relief in Puerto Rico. Having the ability to preview the store inventory and therefore not face travel woes with the battery was nice. One battery this size lasts for a long time either in my circular saw or reciprocating saw. Thank you DW!! Dave

This is a good quality fan that is extremely durable. It has some nice features that make it more useful. The fan pivots vertically over a very wide range of motion. In addition to sitting on its base, there are 3 other mounting options. It has holes on the base for mounting on a wall. There is a threaded mounting hold on the bottom for attaching it onto a stand/pole. There are 2 metal hooks that can extend out the back to secure it onto a rail/fence or 2x4 board. You can power it with a 20-volt lithium ion battery (not included) or via a cord. Note that where it will plug in, the cord has to have the outlet on the end (in line with the cord) not directed to the side of the cord. The knob controls on/off and adjustment of fan speed. I gave it 3 stars because its a well made fan that should last forever. My only problem with it is that it is not very powerful. The motor (and only 3 blades) just does not have the power to generate a lot of airflow. If you have a smaller area that just needs some general airflow to keep it from getting "stuffy", this will work. In larger rooms or outdoors I think this would have no effect. I also don't think it would be useful for helping to dry areas or things like carpet or other floors.

I would recommend this product if you value endurance over power. I hoped there'd be an option for this fan to really blow your hair back, but this fan only "goes to 3, not 11." The trade off is that this fan will most likely run for hours. The downside is that it needs to be pointed directly at you for your to really feel it working. I really like that this fan can take wall power in addition to every battery Dewalt has made in the last 6 years. Why aren't all non-handheld cordless tools like this? Also, you can hand this fan from the wall like a picture, or metal arms can telescope out and it can hang off 2x4 saw horses. I wish the head rotated side to side, not just up and down. That additional feature would make it easier to place it out of the way while still putting the user directly in the path of the fan.

A bit larger in size than the standard 3, 4 or 5ah batteries. They last noticeably longer than the above mentioned batteries as well. Have been using constantly and consistently for a few months with no noticibly decline in power. I would recommend buying the fan cooled fast charger along with these as a standard charger takes hours to fill these up

Extended Use 20 volt battery
I bought my drill about 2 yrs ago, it came with 2 or 3 AH batteries. They do last very well. I charged this 5 Ah battery and put it to the test drilling 3/8" holes in 1/4" metal brackets i had made for a boat project. The battery lasted noticeably longer than my other batteries before losing power. I charge it backup with the same charger used for the other batteries. Wish i have a pair of these!

For the Big Jobs!
This DeWalt 20 volt Max battery pack is really great for the "big jobs". This 5 amp hour (ah) batteru really works well in my Circular Saw and Impact Driver for heavy duty use...cutting framing lumber and plywood and installing lag bolts. It hold up to a good 1/2 day of fairly heavy use in these tools. It has a nice charge indicator light to let you know the charge left. I usually just charge it up during lunch time and then work the rest of the day. It has a number of other features like "no memory and virtually no self discharge". It's very light weight compared to my old 18 volt batteries at 1.4 lbs. It also comes with a 3 year FREE service contract. This is a great battery for the PRO and serious DIYer.

Very Powerful Battery
These XR tools are great, and if you need the extra capacity, then this is the battery for you. I got this one to use in my hedge clipper since it is the recommended battery for that tool. Capacity is great, I can trim every shrub in my yard (about 30) on one charge and still have plenty left. I especially like the fuel gauge on the battery so I can instantly tell the charge state before I start working. I would recommend this battery highly.

Great product. These batteries last a long time and can handle some abuse. I’ve dropped mine a few times.

More than enough power for the saw and a hour of triming.

No issues so far. I haven't run one "dry" yet, as they last longer than I do.
