Power, power and more power! The 18-volt 1/2-inch hammer drill/driver’s high-torque motor churns out an impressive 500 inch-pounds of torqueimagine the jobs it could tackle. We were surprised by how good it feels in hand, thanks, we think, to its neatly balanced design that places the handle toward the center of the tool. A nice touch is the ratcheting chuck with carbide jaws for a superb hold on your bit. And the all-metal, three-speed transmission is so innovative that DeWalt patented it. All we know is that this is one powerhouse of a hammer drill/driver, no matter what mode it’s in. The DC385 recip saw’s keyless blade clamp wins points in our book for fast blade changes. And talk about fastwith its one-inch stroke length, it runs at 2,900 strokes per minute. Like the drill, it’s well balanced and feels good in hand. It’s compact, lightweight and offers great cutline visibility through the pivoting shoe’s open top. Plus, we like that the blade will reverse for flush and plunge cutting. The circular saw slices into 2x4s like butter, and you can always see your cut because the blade’s on the left. Bevel cuts are no sweat; the saw’s easy to adjust and the scale’s clear. The grinder’s hardworking with a nice three-position side handle. Kudos to DeWalt for the metal gear case and the longer life it’ll give this grinder. We’re not as impressed with the impact gun, despite its 0 to 3,000 impacts per minute and how smoothly it runs without any kickback-it’s just that we’d like to see it take more than ΒΌ-inch hex shanks. Finally, the flashlight’s neck is super flexible, shedding light in just about any direction for up to three hours. This is a great collection of tools, essential for the contractor and perfect for the skilled do-it-yourselfer.–Kris Jensen-Van Heste
