DeWalt ATOMIC 20V Brushless Impact Wrenches and Driver [DCF850, DCF921, and DCF923]

[@TorqueTestChannel]

Interesting results, great vid Tim. Breaking the 450 loose, sort of makes some sense to me. We're seeing very impressive peak/ultimate torque on these, but dynamic torque or force per blow in line with a lot of other top of the line compacts so that does make some sence. Had trouble breaking 400 ourselves sometimes depending on the bolt size. Very impressive tools though, love to see DeWalt's latest stuff be this good.

[@jasonsnook5254]

Honestly I think the 3/8” 923 would have broke that nut loose if it wasn't for the adapter. I understand for that socket size a adapter is needed but adapters and extensions do reduce torque output. Great review

[@jasonsnook5254]

Nevermind, just noticed that the adapter is welded on so it shouldn't make much of a difference

[@jba6677]

@@jasonsnook5254 torque sticks are solid and reduce torque significantly. Something similar could be happening with that adapter.

[@fredio54]

The ONLY reason the 3/8 failed where the 1/2 succeeded is the adaptor. Any extra connections or length or whatever between an impact power tool and the thing you're trying to move reduced output significantly by damping the movement and absorbing the energy as heat.

[@nelsonbrum8496]

Adapter is welded on...

[@Luigiz28]

All these new tools and leaked holiday sales from DeWalt have me excited. I think it's time to finally jump into the DeWalt platform. Thanks for this video!

[@Meme-zc4cw]

I love Dewalt. I have put them through hell and they have never let me down.

[@TheDukester87]

Another great video, but also DeWalt should sell those in a kit like that. That tough system 2.0 and tool in various configurations.

[@MikeMcCasland27]

450ft lbs is a lot to ask from a little 'micro' impact like that, but it does seem like an improvement over the last generation 20v MAX XR 3/8ths compact. I hope DeWalt comes out with an updated mid-torque series to compliment these.

[@Stax0-]

Imagine them making a 700break away torque

[@Jarco101]

This was so sweet to watch Tim. Finally the tools I was waiting for. Now I I would be more than happy if Dewalt release the power ratchets . In the Xtreme line would be awesome

[@nathanwoita1033]

Throw the 5ah battery on them, those 4ah batteries seem to always make the tool feel pretty weak, awesome video nice to see DeWalt stepping on Milwaukee's toes finally

[@thehhoff69]

It's tricky, because actually the 2000mAh cells that make up the 4Ah pack can deliver more power (higher discharge current) than the 2500mAh cells that make up the 5Ah pack. But a higher Ah rating tends to have a lower voltage drop under load, so it may cancel out the power advantage of the 4Ah. Now, going to something like the 6Ah XR pack would definitely make a difference because its 21700 cells can produce even more power, and has more capacity than the 4Ah.

[@phillipcraggs6202]

These things are so compact, you could use the 1/2 inch impact with adapters to do everything. I just bought the DCF921, it came with a free 5AH battery. I wanna see how the new stacked battery packs compare to the current batteries.

[@thebackwoodsmechanic5029]

Wish I could get these. Not a single store in my area has any . The 921 specifically is awesome. Tested on Torque Test channel

[@jasonhull2163]

Great impact wrench. I tried it out at work and it's great.

[@Billysherry1]

Got a set of these for Christmas these will surprise you in a good way

[@Shoptoolreviews]

Yes, they will. Great tools.

[@joseandalon3851]

Curious to see a head to head on these new 20v Atomic impact wrenches vs the 12v impacts. Maybe put it up against the mid torque Dcf894. Thanks for the videos!

[@kaleoariola]

Was about to buy these thinking they were better than the ones I had. Bought the brushless 3/8 back in April and I've had the big 1/2 since 2016. Mahalo for saving me some money.

[@phillip6702]

Awesome! Looking forward to the reviews. Could you do a comparison to the 12v wrenches?

[@MasteringMayhem]

They are looking very nice. Over all look is amazing. I hope to get my hands on them soon 🙂✌️❤️

[@georgeferlazzo7936]

Hello again Tim Thank you for another Great Video. I am looking forward to seeing more as you put these tools through there paces. I am researching for my next tool purchase. I currently have Hitachi 12 volt drill and driver. Both are about five years old. Never had a issue so far. Just I am expecting because of age to replace. Again thank you

[@aco2518]

NOW THAT, Is the driver the the Atomic series should have launched with. I'm tempted to walk into Home Depot with my DCF 809 and see if they want to exchange the tool lol.

[@brassbelt]

How can the consumers get the foam cut out perfect like the one showed on the vid?

[@vsar1938]

Thanks for the impressions. Was excited about these. Wish you would of quickly tested the impact driver at higher torques. Upto 250/300 wouuld have been very interesting.

[@juanc5149]

I think the 4ah battery was the bottle neck. Still got similar performance to the dcf901 with the 12v 5ah battery.

[@scottbionicnerf8727]

I'm going to be moving up to contractor level tools from my ol' good-enough-to-get-by tools that just don't pack the punch I'm needing more and more. I also need to more flexibility to work remotely, on bigger, Bigger and BIGGER Jobs. With DeWalt's latest &greatest evolution in battery Tech, I feel safest going Yellow Guy. Not mention the even more compact 12v line, great tight fit assembly areas(custom built furniture and stuff)and projects.

[@jimcatanzaro7808]

I just got the Dcf921 1/2 for $199 online picked up today with a 5ah battery at Home Depot they are running a deal just the tool and the battery no bag no charger but not a bad deal !!!! They took my lug nuts off my Tacoma in no time so much easier then the old tire iron I’m getting too old

[@dawsonmobley]

The 3\8 wrench would probably have gotten that second bolt loose if you didn't have the 3\8 to 1\2 inch adapter in between.... You always lose a bit of the impact force when you add extra slop between the bolt and the drive. I imagine the only difference between the 3\8 and 1\2 inch wrench is the output drive size.

[@trenthollars1543]

@@patrickdolan. I wonder why they have a separate line like the FlexVolt Advantage Tools, when the XR line Tools can run off the 60v batteries, like the FlexVolt Grinder is the exact same Grinder as the Power Detect Grinder, except 1 says FlexVolt Advantage and 1 Power Detect.

[@patrickdolan.]

@@trenthollars1543 yea its mostly a marketing thing. I don't use my tools every day. In hindsight I'm sure the regular XR would hold up for most people. They get you tho. You buy one upgraded tool and think you need more. The upgraded circular saw is worth it imo but I got buyers remorse on the grinder because it's a grinder. Who needs all that extra stuff with a grinder? I've been fine with normal grinders for years and Even my cheapest grinders still work. I don't notice a difference worth the added cost

[@stephanieking9242]

Upgraded from an older 18v kit. kzbin.infoUgkxW1vOBRCMrgTCDEijzpVzDWsgI-Jm2iQv I independently chose the drill and impact tool, before I came across the kit.I like the 3 speed impact gun. It seems more powerful than my older one, and it can be set to be really gentle. The drill is more appropriately sized for my use. I used to have a hammer drill, but I did not like that it was so big and it was not a great hammer drill. I rather have a smaller drill like this, and then get a corded hammer drill for the odd case I need that.

[@suatkurt92]

Can i use 18v batteries with them?

[@deanvav7820]

NO IMPACT WILL PERFORM AS RATED WHEN USING A ADAPTER OR EXTENSION.....Pretty sure that if it was tested with a good 3/8" socket that it would work just fine 😉

[@seano932]

Im so confused by Dewalt... they release the Atomic/Home Depot line. They claim it is to make smaller/home gamer tools, but they aren't any smaller than the existing XR tools. They make an impact that is weaker than their 887. They sold a crap ton of these last year. Then a year later they are releasing Atomic line tools that are both smaller and significantly more powerful. Wtf? So is it a weaker/cheaper line that is smaller but not really, or is it actually the more powerful, new professional line using their most advanced engineering to reduce size and increase power?? What is the Atomic line supposed to be??

[@johnzablan1086]

I totally agree with you. They could have skipped some of the more recent variations and just put these new ones out instead. I wish they would have. Nonetheless, I’m gonna get that dcf921. I need a powerful compact wrench, I’m already invested in the DeWalt battery platform, and If I’m not mistaken, the torque test channel shows this new dewalt beating out the 12 and 18 volt Milwaukee stubby.

Whats the kit model number?

[@33kingmajor16]

[@1stRanger]

There's no difference between 1/2 and 3/8 anvils whatsoever. The difference you see is due to the adapter that is causing massive loss of torque. There's a reason those exist with anvils of different size. To prevent exactly that. One should never use any adapters on impact unless there's no other way.

[@mmadhamster]

The 5ah battery may have more tork power

[@robertblack9119]

Had no problems taking off what they are rated for?? It took like 8 seconds. I would say that was problematic

[@johnzablan1086]

The product claims “up to 450 ft-lbs of max breakaway torque,” which means that’s the limit of its capability, so naturally it took longer to bust that 450 nut. Any impact will take longer to remove a nut that’s torqued to the max breakaway claims of that particular impact. Some impacts can’t even remove nuts torqued to the impact’s advertised max breakaway rating, no matter how long you hold down the trigger.
