What We Like
  • Full cordless freedom in the DeWalt 20V lineup without dragging extension cords across the shop or pasture.
  • Instant motor brake and crisp trigger response under continuous duty.
  • Provides roughly 40.0 Wh of real runtime per charge cycle.
  • No hose, no compressor. Leaves nearly invisible pin holes in delicate trim work and oak moldings.
  • Picked up for $160.00 against a $319.00 MSRP, huge margin of safety.
Flaws But Not Dealbreakers
  • Locks you into the DeWalt 20V battery ecosystem; third-party batteries are never worth the fire risk.
