View largerStrength Defies SizeDEWALT has optimized both of these tools to withstand daily jobsite wear and tear. The 1/2-inch hammer drill’s high-power, high-efficiency motor delivers 535 unit watts out for superior performance in light and medium drilling applications. A 1/2-inch ratcheting chuck with carbide inserts provides superior bit-gripping strength—reducing slippage during high-torque applications—thus providing longer tool life. The hammer drill/driver’s patented three-speed (0-600 RPM; 0-1,250 RPM; and 0-2,000 RPM), all-metal transmission allows users to select the appropriate speed for the job at hand and is up to 30 percent faster than current hammer drill/drivers on the market. Meanwhile, the reciprocating saw offers patented features that increase versatility and productivity on the job. The exclusive four-position keyless blade clamp allows for flush cutting and for reaching into tight areas, and the 1-1/8-inch stroke length delivers 0-3,000 SPM. A double oil-sealed shaft helps to reduce contamination and provide durability, while the pivoting adjustable shoe extends blade life and allows depth of cut control, which is ideal for professionals tasked with jobs that demand varying cutting depths. The DCS380 also boasts a rubber overmold grip to aid in user comfort.Endurance and Ease of UseDEWALT-designed electronics have been built into both tools’ switches to provide maximum life for the tools and batteries by helping to protect them from overheating, overloading, and deep discharge during use. The 20-volt’s lithium-ion batteries provide up to 35 percent more runtime than existing 18-volt lithium-ion battery technology, and the included Energy Star-qualified charger has dual voltage capabilities and it is compatible with both 12-volt max and 20-volt max DEWALT lithium-ion batteries. The tools’ slim handles fit easily into users’ hands, increasing the level of comfort during the course of long jobs, and the bright built-in LED work lights above the triggers have a 20-second delay that improves visibility in dimly lit spaces.About DEWALT's 20-Volt Max Lithium-Ion ToolsDEWALT’s line of 20-volt max lithium-ion tools features improvements in engineering and design to provide the performance, the ergonomics, and the innovation that contractors require.

Most helpful customer reviews2 of 2 people found the following review helpful.For this klutz, superb: solid, safe, responsive and easy to useBy Peter G. KeenI am probably not the ideal customer or reviewer of this product. I'm strictly odd-jobs around the house, lack a craftsman's instincts and am very wary of power tools. Regardless, I loved it. It is compact enough to make me feel comfortable, the controls and options are simple to sort out and it certainly delivers on the results. It's a little weighty but that gives me extra confidence that it isn't going to run away, slip or do something weird. For the small tasks I did -- getting my garage in shape and adding shelves, supports and trimmings -- it was excellent. I really felt that I could concentrate on what I was doing without having to keep half my eye and even more of my mind on the tool itself.It is a first rate piece of design -- totally functional in its layout, positioning and tools. It looks good and feels good. I feel I will be more likely to take on bigger jobs and see it as ideal for someone who spends a lot of time on sawing, drilling and building fixtures. Clearly, it offers more for a professional than I as an amateur would ever need. It isn't inexpensive but the price seems good value for what if offers.2 of 2 people found the following review helpful.Woman's reviewBy C. KeeneyI'm a single woman who has to take care of a house by herself, so I need a drill with power. I also occasionally build small things, living on a mini-farm. I love the slimmer handle grip on this DeWalt drill..My last drill was a Makita and I'm a petite woman and my hand had to stretch too much to reach around the grip...This drill's grip is much slimmer and I'm so very happy about that. The weight is good and balanced, although it's a pound more than my Makita.The BEST part is how the battery attaches to the drill!! I struggled so much getting my Makita battery on and off because my hands are so small, but this one you just click it on and then simply push a button to remove it..I can't tell you how much better that is for me. Thank you DeWalt!The instructions are clear and are accordion style. However I did not understand the charger symbols..Simply the light blinks when it's charging and solid when it's fully charged. The rest of the buttons on the drill are simple and easy to understand. Even with the confusing instructions about the symbols, charging is simple and it takes about one hour to charge one battery. The box includes a very durable tote bag with extra side pockets on the outside and inside. No compartments inside to separate the drill by itself though..but at least I can keep drill, charging units and battery all in one place. The saw was a bonus for me..because I have a jigsaw I mainly use for most everything, but I may learn to use it now that I have one.For anyone who doesn't know...a Hammerdrill is used to drill into concrete, bricks etc. It hammers as it drills to be able to do this. I think that option will offer up a lot more ways to use this drill, being able to drill into bricks and through concrete.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful.A woman's point of view....By M. JacobsenOkay, I'm not going to go into all the technical details that the guys love but mean absolutely nothing to me. ; I wanted this hammerdrill and saw combo because I love doing home/gardening projects. And this product is about the neatest tool set I've got now. I was able to head down to the garden (nary an electrical outlet in sight) and build trellises, bed boxes, limb fruit trees, etc etc all with this cordless set. It holds a charge for hours and hours. Easy to carry around, comes in a nice case. I absolutely love it and am getting one for my sister for Christmas! The husband-unit may have laughed at me at first, but even he has to admit he's impressed with what I've accomplished with this set.See all 6 customer reviews...
