Fair question. But the torque requires to overcome the clutch at each setting doesn’t change with speed, mostly. It slips when it comes against a certain amount of resistance regardless of your rotational speed. So no matter what you can drive large fasteners while using the clutch.
Good overview. I have the milwaukee and will be adding the dewalt to the arsenal soon. I do dislike that it only comes with a single battery though. In regards to sinking those big screws, that's what speed 1 is for; it's the higher torque setting. I've sunk plenty of 4"x1/4" spax powerlags when hanging some brackets for wall mounting a few floating workbenches.
Appreciate it. Trouble isn’t so much sinking the screw for me as being able to utilize the clutch on larger screws. Love my M12 installation driver and hammer drill but it’s an issue I run into often
@@EngineersPerspective701 I honestly never use a clutch; I've tried it in the past, but what always ends up happening is variances in the materials always seem to cause slight differences when trying to sink the screws in, so some end up proud. I heard festool's drills are better in that regard, but I don't want to invest in a new battery platform, as much as I love my festool vac, tracksaw and sanders.
Never hook to a Milwaukee and have em fight they will burn out quickly! DeWalt isn't bad though. But can use better engineering. 12v is a bit weak for me. edit: DeWalt will catch fire unless they fixed that safety issue... Milwaukee ftw
I really enjoy 12V but I would still say they are a bit weak for serious work. Amazing for light duty, good for medium and can often work in heavy duty situations but just not the right tools for doing your best work under those conditions.
The torque specs are completely different between speed 1 & 2. How can you say it doesn’t matter?

I like how it has those things on it that do that
They’re Super useful
What do you have attached to the DCD800 , is that some sort of adapter?
It’s a Montana brand 4-in-1 drill/drive bit. Highly recommend

Should have gotten the black flex click .
Don’t want to introduce new battery system
I can't accept the Milwaukee f/r button, what a joke.
I’ve learned to live with it but really hoping for a Gen 2 Milwaukee that is amazing she fixes that
