Dewalt Atomic Dcf850 Vs Dcf887

Dewalt Dcf850 Atomic Vs Old faithful dcf887. #powerstack #dewalt #impact drivers. Flex tool reviews coming soon

[@joshfriedman9775]

So basically DeWalt recreated the same drill and made it more expensive

[@IMPACT-NATION]

I guess man🤣. I guessed your paying for the luxury of having a more compact tool. I don’t mind the size of the 887. It’s a powerhouse as far as torque I think. But the 850s design is more appealing to most. Can’t go wrong with either one. Thanks for the comment brother. Take care

[@ironman4life89]

The 887 is power and the 850 is speed. In this one particular instance the math evened out, but there's proper applications for both of their individual strengths

[@IMPACT-NATION]

@@ironman4life89 couldn’t have explained it better myself man. Exactly right. Appreciate that brother

[@lukenance1088]

@Skoz what would you say is the better applications for the 850 since you mentioned speed?

[@ironman4life89]

@@lukenance1088 I'd think the 850's speed would be favored more with smaller fasteners and thinner lugs overall, where the 887 should power through more demanding thicker/harder stuff with it's lower rpm/higher torque setup. At least that's what it seems like to me

[@sionnach1000]

I was trying to decide between these two a couple months back and ended up buying the 887 because it seems more capable of doing delicate work and has basically the same power as the 850 plus it’s USA made! Yay! 🇺🇸 the only downside is it doesn’t fit inside a 5.5” (2x6 studs) wall space with a short screw but that’s a pretty rare situation I got into and I ended up being able to use tape to secure some backing for drywall patches so they didn’t fall through the wall when installing.

[@IMPACT-NATION]

Yes sir. It definitely has almost identical power to the 850. The 887 was the flagship for a long time and I still see it used by many people on the job all the time. VCG gave them a bad rep cause they pushed it to hard in those aggressive test so of course it over heated. It’s not the most powerful and not the best but what is? Lol. If you got a great deal on it and it accomplishes the jobs you need it to then it’s a win brother

[@IMPACT-NATION]

Yeah Milwaukee is my go to man. It might not seem that way in my videos because all the Dewalt tools I’ve been testing. I love any brand that holds up. Tbh I don’t own one 12 volt tool. In your opinion what would be the best 12 volt platform to start with?

[@hunterjmiles5669]

Anytime you add an extension it actually decreases the IPR so for a more accurate test make things more alike and drill the bolt straight. Must’ve been your left hand hehe! Cool video.

[@IMPACT-NATION]

Hey buddy, I appreciate the kind words. Your exactly right though. This was just a messing around post. My son likes to see impacts head to head. He’s only 5 and he’s got the Milwaukee m18 Fuel Compact Impact Wrench🤣. Gonna have to get a little older before he gets the high torque 🤣🤣🤣🤣

They both looked so close. It wasn't that clear of a win to buy the 850 over the 887. Great review. Wonder what the difference would of been?

[@IMPACT-NATION]

It was neck and neck. They both have identical specs. If anything the 887 drove it just a fraction deeper. Considering the size of the 850 and it’s the Atomic line, I have nothing but respect for that thing. It’s a monster. Especially with the Powerstack. The 887 seems to be forgotten about and that sucks cause it’s a great impact. It carried some weight for Dewalt for a long time.

Although being shorter from front to back it’s bulky at the wide head. Wich is fine cause going between studs and tight spaces it’s great for and it has power. I just prefer the 840
