At just 4.3 pounds and 8.2 inches long, it's comfortable to use for a sustained period of time, and it's a perfect fit for jobs in tight spaces. Also offering the extended tool life provided by all-metal planetary gears, a built-in LED that makes it easy to see your work surface, and convenient onboard storage that prevents misplaced bits, this tool is built around features users need. Also included in this kit is a one-hour charger, two 14.4-volt batteries, a screwdriver bit, and a durable kit box for easy transport.Like all of DEWALT's cordless drill/drivers, the DC730KA is engineered to satisfy the demands of professional contractors. This heavy-duty model has a comfortable, compact size--just 4.3 pounds and about 8 inches long--that easily fits into tight, narrow spaces. The DC730KA is driven by a 14.4-volt extended-run battery, which provides plenty of power for hole drilling and screw driving through virtually any building material. Its variable-speed, two-speed, reversing motor can be operated on low (0-400 RPM) for driving large screws and drilling large holes or high (0-1,450 RPM) for drilling smaller holes and fasteners. The tool is equipped with a 1/2-inch, keyless, single-sleeve, ratcheting chuck that securely locks down on bits to prevent slippage, even when boring large-diameter holes. And its adjustable slip clutch has 17 settings, which ensures precise, consistent screw driving in various materials, hardwood, softwoods, plastic and metal, without fear of over-driving or stripping the screws. An onboard LED work light greatly enhances visibility when working in dark, confined spaces. The DC730KA cordless 14.4-volt compact drill/driver comes with two 14.4-volt batteries, a one-hour charger, and a plastic storage case. It’s backed by DEWALT's three-year limited warranty, 90-day money-back guarantee, and one-year free service contract.

Most helpful customer reviews47 of 51 people found the following review helpful.small dill big powerBy K. TaftThis is my 3rd 14.4 volt drill, 3rd generation has really improved. The shorter body allows me to work in tighter areas. I origionally thought the led was a joke but I have noticed that the led light has been pretty handy as I have used it in areas with low lighting, it does work. I was also pretty impressed with the speedy battery charge time. It's nice to see that dewalt has stayed with the same battery configuration since my first drill back 10-15 yrs ago.24 of 25 people found the following review helpful.DeWalt 14 Volt DrillBy John TateHave always had a 14 volt DeWalt. No need for the 18, too heavy. Wore my 14 out so I ordered this one. Delivered fast and used it almost immediately. Can't beat the price, especially with the case and two batteries and charger. Remember to charge the batteries first.22 of 24 people found the following review helpful.Dewalt DC730KA Heavy Duty 14.4 Cordless DrillBy RKExcellent product...I would recommend this to anyone looking for a drill. I had a Ryobi cordless drill prior to purchasing this and after 7 years it finally died. As a result of using Dewalt drills owned by friends, I thought I would purchase one myself. This drill exceeded my expectations greatly. I loved my Ryobi drill and did not want to let it go but glad that I made this purchase instead of another Ryobi...See all 31 customer reviews...
