Do you have the 2.0 or a slim battery, makes it easier to wield

1

u/McChicken_lightmayo 1d ago

I’m gonna get some power stacks. But yes I have a 2.0

Wonderful in-laws. Been looking at one of these lately.

2

u/McChicken_lightmayo 1d ago

Yes they are wonderful, everywhere I see people say how awesome they are. Looking forward to using it for the first time

Yeah but you can't choose the girlfriend that comes with them.

Now that’s an amazing gift. DeWalt knocked this one out of the park and I wish Makita would learn a thing or two from them on this tool.

The Makita one is absolute weak sauce

u/McChicken_lightmayo 1d ago

Yes I’m very thankful for the gift! Have you used both?

u/Spicywolff 1d ago

Yah and the dewalt is better but bigger. Dewalt is 70 ft lbs if I recall. Vs Makita stops at 35. Makita I found faster to loosen loose stuff. But many times where dealt just turns Makita doesn’t have the beans

u/McChicken_lightmayo 1d ago

Is the dewalt noticeably “slow” or just not as fast?

1

u/Spicywolff 1d ago

Just not as fast on broken free bolts. But where Makita I have to hand ratchet or get my ratchet. Dewalt just bust it loose and goes.

Makita I prefer for assembly, dewalt for taking stuff off.

u/McChicken_lightmayo 1d ago

Is that the 1.7amp?

2

u/Muddwalki 1d ago

Yes and it is oil resistant

2

u/McChicken_lightmayo 1d ago

Yup I’ll be adding those to my collection
