The ATOMIC™ Drill/Driver and Impact Driver come equipped with efficient brushless motors that deliver long runtime, LED work lights for visibility in dark workspaces, variable speed triggers, and adjustable belt hooks for left or right attachment.

To put it simply, DeWalt Atomic tools are compact 20V Max solutions that include brushless models. DeWalt 20V Max XR tools are high-performance brushless models. Both use the same battery, but Atomic focuses on smaller sizing and XR targets higher performance.

So at 205 Newton meters that is phenomenal. For a tool this. Size it fits easily in the tightest of spaces. Perfect. For any job out in the field. The brushless motor technology delivers.

DeWalt keeps a slim range of impact drivers simply because the impact drivers they offer are just that good. This makes looking for the best DeWalt impact driver easier. DeWalt stock over 300+ power tools in their ever expanding catalogue, ranging from 12V XR to 18V XR tools, and more recently their 54V Flexvolt range!

Hey guys Brian with workshop adhikam. We're gonna take a look at the DeWalt. Atomic. Series now when you think of the word atomic. It's an adjective it's describing. Something.

DEWALT 20V MAX is the next line after 18V, introducing lithium-ion batteries. DEWALT 20V XR improved on the 20V MAX line by introducing brushless motors and high-capacity lithium-ion batteries. DEWALT 20V ATOMIC are designed to be compact and powerful for a wide range of applications.

eXtreme Runtime XR Stands for eXtreme Runtime. ( may also be called extended runtime) If it's stamped on the batteries: this is our claim that these batteries last longer than our non-XR versions. They are the higher amp hour batteries and have a larger fuel tank. If it is stamped on the tool: this means that the tool is brushless.

Yes- either use impact ready bits or use a DW0521 to convert from 1/4" hex shank chuck to a 3 jaw 3/8" drill chuck. Keep in mind the speed range of the impact driver (typically 2400-2800 max rpm) may be higher then that of a drill, depending on the model.

An impact driver is not ideal for precision drilling tasks and should be limited to jobs where the size or placement of the hole is not crucial but more torque may be needed, such as drilling through metal and dense or knotty wood.

In the impact driver stakes, Makita takes the lead over DeWalt in terms of RPM and impact rate, while the DeWalt has the edge in terms of torque. The Makita teams its power with a slightly lighter weight and more compact size, which makes for a potent package.

An impact driver outputs higher torque levels than a drill, making it more efficient for quickly driving long, wide and large screws into tough materials. As a result, it significantly reduces your work time when large volumes of fasteners need to be secured.
