I'm currently working up the courage to ask Santa if he'll get me the Cordless screwgun, to go with the DeWALT 20v Max tools I already have. Only problem is I don't think I've been such a good boy this year, so I may have to get it myself. he he Thx for this review & comparison BTW. = )
I think the cordless is a little slower for putting screws in but having no card speeds up the lrocess Cus with the cord your constantly setting up the guns for each room when with the cordless it’s just in ur pouch and go right to next room
It's like the difference between using a handsaw or a circular saw. They both get the job done but one is faster. By the way, if you just use a setting bit, make sure those screws go in all the way, especially in the corners. You want them in far enough that your taping knife doesn't hit them when you put mud on, but not so far they cut through the paper and lose holding power. I've finished jobs for DIYers where I have to re-screw all the corners before I can tape them.
With the setting bits, the circular tip spins and tends to cut the paper on the drywall, rendering the screws kind of useless. Drywall gun tips don’t spin and the bit doesn’t spin unless pressure is applied, speeds up installations.
Corded is way faster . Never have to charge batteries or if I don’t use tool batteries go dead . 20 years install drywall never trip over cord lol . Anything with batteries always makes tool heavier. Especially doing drywall over head
Yeah, batteries do introduce their own problems for sure. The weight on the 2 Amp Hour is not much heavier than the good old DW272, but it makes a bigger difference the more ceilings you do :-).

No, the screw gun was designed with a clutch as well as a depth setting tip in order to drive screws into drywall much faster than a conventional drill. The impact driver was designed more for framing applications and does not have an adjustable depth-setting tip nor a clutch. But in a pinch they work if you buy a special tip for them that sets the depth. There is nothing worse for a taper than what we call "clickers," screws that are not set in far enough. Of course, screws that are set too far are also bad in that they will not hold the drywall long-term and can pop over time.
It is a hassle as far as routing it through and around walls and such. Also, when the cord does come unplugged, it does so at the most inconvenient times :-). The most valuable functions of a cord that I miss is the ability to pull the gun off the floor with the cord, and being able to tie the cord to stop the gun from hitting the floor if working up high and I drop it or knock it down or something. I have dropped my cordless about three times now, and once had to get a new snap-ring for the nosecone because of dropping it. Been thinking about getting a lanyard for it or something.
Thanks, good tip. I picked up a habit of feathering the trigger instead of locking it from the guy who taught me to hang. I forget why he did that, he was crazy fast though. I don't hang large jobs any more, but if I did I would certainly be using that trigger lock, don't want my pinky to get carpal tunnel :-).
I feel into this too because of my boss. He really hates noise and cant stand the gun constantly running likw that. We plaster primarily as we make more money then when we hang. So we normally hang jobs 50 or less and sub larger jobs. We might sub smaller jobs too if we have a few ready that can be done in the same day. Our hangera will hang 50 sheets before im out of the truck and have my belt on. They are soo fast and accurate. My boss and I fast compaired to most other people. I lve gotten so used to no using the trigger lock it would be a hard habit to break i think.

I always prefer corded. Doesnt bother me rolling out an extension cord here and there
more power = more "noise"
Great video, thanks.
Corded is te best fast, the fast.
Hello, don't be tired, in your opinion, is the Dewalt electric skrugan stronger and more durable or the Dewalt rechargeable skrugan??
؟؟؟؟؟؟

Agreed. I do mostly repair jobs and the cordless is a huge improvement for those!
Tool videos? This is a well rounded channel. Anything advice on typewriter or diesel engine repair?
You is funny person.
Is there much difference between using driver with setter bit vs actual screwgun?

@@JoseDominguez-ou5xd Cierto. Es mucho más fácil corregir un tornillo con el modelo con cable.
Is a screw gun now superseded by a impact driver ??
No, the screw gun was designed with a clutch as well as a depth setting tip in order to drive screws into drywall much faster than a conventional drill. The impact driver was designed more for framing applications and does not have an adjustable depth-setting tip nor a clutch.

@@drywalllabbyrestorewall3443 thank you
How much of a problem do you find the cord itself on site? Trip hazards etc?

A screwgun is easier to use if you use the RockerSwitch.
