Not very impressive [Posted on 2004-03-02]
I love dewalt. I have a tablesaw, half a dozen cordless tools and a miter box made by them. I've used the 14.4 for a couple of years now I think and it beats the drill drivers I've had in the past (mikita, porter cable) hands down. The beef I have with this hammer/drill model is for one thing, it's pistol grip in the back makes it very unbalanced and fatigueing. Second, this model delivers only 290 in/lbs of torque. I can hold the chuck tight and bogg it down to stop. On the other side is the DW983K which has a nicely placed pistol grip in the middle of the drill/driver and delivers a bruting 400 in/lbs of torque. I can't bogg that down. I bought and sold the hammer drill in the same week. You would have to kill me to take my 14.4 drill driver away. If you want a hammer drill, get a hammer drill but don't think it will do the same job. I believe this is alot better that my old 14.4 ever was especally with the new Metal Nichol Hydride batteries.
