What comes with the DCD800B bare tool?
The package includes the DCD800 20V MAX XR brushless 1/2-inch drill/driver and one belt hook. It is a tool-only model, so the battery and charger are sold separately.
What materials and speeds is the DCD800B intended for?
DeWalt describes this drill/driver for heavy-duty fastening and drilling in wood and metal. Its two-speed transmission provides 0–650 and 0–2,000 rpm, with a variable trigger for speed control.
How does the DCD800B hold bits and control operation?
The DCD800B uses a 1/2-inch metal ratcheting chuck for bit retention. Its variable trigger and two speed settings allow the operator to adjust speed for the work rather than using a single fixed rate.
Does the DCD800B have a work light or tracking feature?
Yes. It has an adjustable three-position, three-mode LED producing up to 70 lumens; the spotlight mode has a 20-minute shutoff. The chip pocket accepts the separately sold DCE042 Tool Connect Chip and connects with the Tool Connect Site Manager app.
What warranty and service package does the DCD800B have?
The product listing states a three-year limited warranty, one year of free service, and a 90-day satisfaction guarantee. DeWalt says the three-year coverage applies to defects in materials or workmanship, while the first-year service covers maintenance and worn parts caused by normal use, subject to its purchase and warranty conditions.
Is the DCD800B a 20V or 18V tool?
DeWalt explains that 20V MAX is the maximum initial battery voltage measured without a workload, while the nominal voltage is 18V. The DCD800B is therefore marketed on the 20V MAX platform but has an 18V nominal rating.
