    Bought this today (due to your review) and holy cow it's amazing. Ripped through 2x8s and super thick milled oak like it was butter. Just like you said, for a neighborhood diy'er this thing is top notch. Worked for 2hrs with it and the batt indicator still had 3 bars. LOVE this tool!

    Hi Brian ,
    I have to say this new DeWalt 20v power detect technology is looking good on certain tools. Yeah, I'm one of those guys who would like to see this exact model with a blade on the left, LOL.. I don't really care for the bulky rear handle style.
    I do hope DeWalt can fix and solve the issue with the (DCF 887) over heating / burning up with this new technology.

    • @MrMvp8402
      @MrMvp8402 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      I'm no expert but I think it's because Home Depot (and a few online retailers) own the flexvolt rights, just like the Atomic line up, and Lowe's doesn't, so that's why they had to come up with an equivalent one for Lowe's to sell as well. The extreme line up being Lowe's equivalent to the Atomic at home depot, I know one is 12v and the other one is 18v but I still feel like that's how it is.

    • @thehhoff69
      @thehhoff69 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      DCS578 is on the FlexVolt platform, this DCS574 is on the 20v platform, that's the main difference. FlexVolt is also more powerful (2400 watts vs 1300 watts). They both are "Gen II" models of their predecessors that take advantage of new battery technology.

    • @MrMvp8402
      @MrMvp8402 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      @KelMaster Construction yes, it's not completely exclusive to the home depot but Lowe's doesnt sell them, just like home depot doesn't sell power detect or the 12v extreme line. A bunch of other online retailers also sell flexvolt (acme tools, amazon, maybe Ohio Power tool but not completely sure).

    My first cordless Circular Saw (DeWalt DCS574) and I love it with the exception of the counterclockwise blade rotation as it tends to chip the upside of a finished board. Am I missing something here or should I just be cutting boards upside down????

    • @WorkshopAddict
      @WorkshopAddict  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      They all cut in that direction. Have you upgraded to a higher tooth count blade? Slow down your cuts and it will chip less. Run masking tape down your cut line first and it will also help.

It only happens when the saw depth is adjusted to cut half inch plywood. I know it's a small issue but it drives me crazy. Does this happen with anyone else or just me?
    EDIT: exchanged it for the same model and everything is all good with it.

    Great vid brother and kudos to DeWalt. I have a question....I know that the 8ah is outfitted with 21700 cells... however I have a 6ah 20v battery that I've had for about 2 & 1/2 years that uses 20700 cells...that being said here's my question. I've read a few reviews and watched a few videos concerning dewalts power connect tools...are the 6ah xr batteries that are being made today made with 21700 cells instead of 20700 cells ? I don't have a 8ah battery to compare to but the footprint of the 8 and the 6 look to be about the same.

      There was talk about Dewalt going with 20700 cells but they ended up going with 21700 cells because Tesla went with 21700 cells and in the end it would be the cell of choice, that said you probably wouldn't see a difference in power between 20700 and 21700 cells. If tge early batteries had them

      Older pre-2019 DCB206s were 20700 based, since then they have been 21700 based (Samsung 30Ts to be exact). One way to tell is the lettering on the side label. Older 20700 batteries have in small yellow font "6.0Ah" vs. new 21700 based DCB206's large white font "6Ah", just like the 8Ah. It is the same with the Flexvolt 9.0 DCB609 btw. Pre-2019 were 20700 based, they are now 21700 based (also Samsung 30Ts). The little silver tabs (heat sinks) on top of the battery are how you tell them apart. Only the new 21700 based batteries have them.

You cant hold it against a set square because the motor housing is in the way. Shame only dewalt tool I actually rated apart from the radio.
