NEW DeWALT XR HAMMER DRILL THAT 99% OF PEOPLE HAVE NEVER SEEN BEFORE!

NEW DeWALT XR HAMMER DRILL THAT 99% OF PEOPLE HAVE NEVER SEEN BEFORE! In this video we show the #verycoolgang a brand new DeWALT 20V MAX XR Brushless 3 speed hammer drill (DCD998), compare it to the older hammer drill from DeWALT (DCD996) to show you the differences that most people have never seen before! This new hammer drill from DeWALT tools is part of their new POWER DETECT line of tools which take advantage of their higher amp XR batteries that use 21700 cells inside. Let us know if you were one of the 1% of people who knew about this new hammer drill already or if you were one of the 99% of people that have never seen this tool before in the comments section below. Thank you all for watching, I look forward to reading your comments!

I recently used the 998 to drill 1/2 inch holes in cinder block - using wood drill bits! I destroyed a couple of them (they came out of the hole glowing red!) because I didn't have any masonry bits, no time to buy any, and my pastor needed help with a project at the church that day. The noise could have awakened the dead, but it did the job. From that experience, and with wall framing and other projects, I can honestly say it is an incredible tool.

[@job38four10]

I bought this Dewalt hammer drill last month, what I noticed the most was the light setting feature, WOW, thats what needs to be hammered on as a great feature. My last Dewalt hammer drill that was 8 years old didn't have that bright light, that Dewalt light feature is the best, Someone at Dewalt should get a bonus for that...........

Hi Vince, thanks for this video, it is great! I really need to know one specific. What's the measure of the collar where is possible to install the side handle? I have a separate drill bench press and I need to know if the collar of this drill is between 38 and 43mm. May you kindly help me out? Thanks in advance, man!

Great video on a great tool man! Just used my 998 today for the first time and it drilled through a concrete hurricane pad like butter. Nothing takes abuse quite like DeWalt!!

[@luigigreen9823]

@W Jack 3/16. Today my coworker who uses a Rigid hammer drill and I had a test both using 3/16 bit into a concrete pad for ankers and the 2 holes we drilled my dewalt completed them quicker by about 3 seconds

[@luigigreen9823]

@W Jack dewalt bits of course! He even uses dewalt bits and all he uses is Rigid tools!

[@luigigreen9823]

@W Jack yeah man I'll take the tough yellow and black over the cheaper looking yet somehow more expensive red and black. Dewalt built to last.

Hello vince.just bought a new dewal the dcd796.. I am just curious about it.. Just a question, is it normal if i turn on, on speed 2 the release it i always hear a clicking sounds while on speed 1 i don't hear anything on it. I don't know if it's just normal.thanx a lot

They are milwaukee fanboys lol. Always look up to the milwaukee's and they won't let go lol

[@RC.56]

Hello. Choosing a model for a new drill. They are selling combo deals that includes two drills, one a hammer…. The standard drill has a hammer mode, why would you need the separate hammer drill? Although I do prefer the quick connect for standard bits as seen on the hammer drill, instead of having to loosen and tighten a chuck. You thoughts? Separate question, I remember seeing a standard drill gun that you can remove the Chuck portion to reveal a standard hex insert for bits

[@palmer311]

Now let’s push dewalt to update the 887. I love mine but... MORE POWER!!!

[@kdawson020279]

I would never have found speed 2 before this video 🤣 It's a decent soup-to-nuts drill/driver/hammer(ish) drill, but I wouldn't use it to drill for 1/2"-13 anchors through 8" concrete pads. Then again, I don't set anchors in masonry walls with my big Dewalt SDS. This is why I have a 1/4" impact screwdriver, 2 DeWalt hammer drills, the 1/2" impact wrench, and the 1/2" SDS, because I have all these 20v batteries and I wanted more things that they fit. And, that drilling 1/2" anchor holes in concrete pads thing. It's no small part of my job.

[@Hamann5]

I've been looking to invest in a new hammer drill and impact was looking At the flex volt 996 with the 887 combo kit but with this new release it looks like I'm gonna be going with the 998 and the 887 combo the increased power is definitely noticeable from what I'm seeing... as for a TTR since you did the power detect versus the flex volt why not do the same thing here and do the 996 flex volt against the 998 power to tact and then whoever wins that goes up against another competitor in order to call at the top dog needs to beat the previous king of the hill so would like to see them do battle 998 vs 996

[@dancaldwell2198]

Hey Vince, great vid keep up the good work - would be nice to see Makita update their flagship hammer drill too 🤔

[@chevyman6999]

Nice! Wow! Normally I would need to break out the big 1/2 drive corded beast to get get that kind of power.

[@servicekallllc856]

Can you guys find out and info on the dewalt tough system storage 2.0?

[@AntonioClaudioMichael]

Does the new 998 come with the Bluetooth built in or us the 998 like the 996 were you have to get the Bluetooth model number is seperate from the regular tool

The flexvolt 20v/60v 6ah can give the 29% extra power or only a battery with 8 or more ah?

[@scottcoleman7304]

Is the flex volt advantage stronger than the power detect?

Yea the 996 to 999 is the best I've ever used that 3 with a paddle bit is insane. Got the 998 myself with the 8ah. Love that shit.

[@lee.7963]

I’m looking at purchasing the dcd 796 or the dcd 996 which 1 in your option is the best 1 for me to purchase because if the settings 1 and 2 are most used and setting 3 on odd occasions only wouldn’t it be best to purchase the dcd 796. Because the setting 3 is basically useless or too powerful to do holes.am I correct Especially if the dcd796 is virtually the same as the 996 and if the 996 struggles on setting 3 then really the 996 would be a waste of money when you can purchase the 796 and do the same stuff and just as much power as the 996 and the torches on both are also the same - This is a hard choice which do I purchase please help me decided much appreciated As there is also more torque settings on the dcd 796 as I’ve noticed on your very good video you made They both also weigh the same so really I’m not noticing much if anything different on both models apart from setting 3 I look forward to hear back from you so I can place my order thank you...

Ive got the 995, beat the crap out of it, still going. It has returned the favor more than once.

I would like to see some clutch action in between 11 and drill.
