Hi DeWalters

My Makita burned (blowed) up!!

I'm planning 2buy my first DeWalt power drill

What should I buy



  • DC927

  • DCD925B2

  • DCD925L2


Which tool should I buy from the 3 above
The diff. in spec's are minimal though.


best regards
Mahon de Ville

*added*
I think the model numbers are diff. in Belgium ...see >>

I would not suggest the DC927.

The DCD925B2 Is the US equivalent to the DCD950, and the DCD925L2 is the US equivalent to the DCD970.

If you are using these tools in a shop and you don't plan on doing any light masonry drilling, then I would not recommend any of them.

If I had to pick between the three you chose, then I would pick the DCD925L2 based on the lithium battery platform.

No light masonry,no .... only workshop and hobby (home)!
But I do like good quality tools.

The 3 above where suggested 2me by the  store (vendor)

What do "you" recommend, forget the 3 above!
I saw all your tests on Youtube.

Thnx
Mahon

It would be more like the DCD760. The DC720 is the NiCd version. The DC720 also has a higher UWO than the DCD760.

DC720 = 410 UWO

DCD760 = 350 UWO

Well, what are your main drilling/driving tasks in your shop?

Mostly woodwork and rarely such "big holes" as in your tests  Smiley
Not professional, though

Well mostly I do some pré-drilling before driving, to prevent splitting/splicing of the wood or panel!
Actually I was planning to buy a Makita TD090DWE .... just before my Makita powerdrill exploded. Cheesy

Well I was unable to find any 18v combo kits, so I would still suggest the 722.
