The battery needs to be more powerful for serious work but it is okay for hanging pictures or some real short jobs before having to recharge it again. Also when you tighten the drill bits you hear an audible clip when it's secure. My suggestion is that before you buy it, check it out. If you want to do light work around the house, get a cheaper brand. If you want a heavy duty sturdy cordless drill - you will be disappointed. I usually check the reviews before I buy a product and I was surprised to buy this dewalt drill only to find out that it's weak, with poor battery life and rather expensive for what it can do. From the very few runs with it, the drill pilot started getting worn out. What I did like about it was that it was light and easy to handle.


5 out of 5 stars Solid, powerful drill   August 15, 2010
Amadeuz (Austin, TX USA)
As a matter of full disclosure, I am using this drill as a DIY homeowner on minor projects. This drill was my upgrade into the world of pro-grade power tools from a cheapo 14.4V Black & Decker drill. I upgraded primarily because I was frustrated by having to drill pilot holes for lag screws all the time due to the lack of power. Furthermore, my former so-called variable speed drill only had two speeds, namely 400 or 800 rpm, nothing in between so I was constantly stripping screw heads. After doing some serious research into Makita, Milwaukee, Hitachi, and Dewalt, I chose Dewalt. Why? Because of the power and construction of the tool. Dewalt uses its own measurement of torque (Unit Watts Out) whereas most other companies list max torque in ft-lbs. In my opinion, I best equate UWO to the amplifier rating in audio receivers. In receivers, many companies list their amplifier rating with only one channel driven. Rarely do companies list amplifier rating with all channels driven. UWO, to me, is Dewalt's real world sustained torque rating like all channels driven in an amplifier. So for this drill, although Dewalt lists it at 410 UWO, I think this probably equates to nearly peak torque of at least 450 ft lbs if not more. Also, I really liked the fact that Dewalt uses all-metal gears and it has solid magnet construction in its motor.

For whatever reason, although most companies have wholeheartedly embraced the Lion technology, Dewalt has chose to slowly move into it and, thus, still has a large portion of tools with NiCd batteries. I really debated about the whole NiCd v Lion thing. But really, for my purposes, I doubt I will be using the drill so much that I will use up 2 batteries. I really think having a back-up battery negates the charge time issue. Of course there's the weight issue, but again, for me, a difference in weigh of 6-8 oz is not a game breaker.

The closest drill to the DC720KA was the Hitachi DS18DSAL. Really solidly constructed drill with good power. Unfortunately, from a purely superficial standpoint, the Hitachi looks like a toy with the green molding. So I went with the Dewalt. In terms of real world performance, really happy so far. Was able to drill 2" long - 1/8" dia. screws into studs without a pilot, no problem. This sucker has power. Really like the LED light. The added heft of the NiCd gives the drill really good balance. Trigger felt right and was able to modulate speed very accurately (true variable speed!). I hope this review helps because other reviews just seem to spout off Dewalt sucks or "it's not lithium so it sucks" type comments.

Excellent price, includes 2 batteries, so when one is charging you have the other ready to use.
Doing home renovations this summer has been the perfect tool for any job we needed it for.
Worth every penny and then some.

I had to cancel my order on this product in the last minute, and the salesperson was exceptionally considerate. He was able to cancel the order right before it was shipped and refunded my payment. I am certain that the product would have been as excellent as the customer service.
