Dewalt XR vs Atomic Impact Drivers

- I thank you for checking out this video, Im just your average guy having Fun with tools. I test tools out to see what these tools can do, and what they can't do. Please Subscribe to the channel and get that tool fix here. Have a great day!
I’m a HVAC guy and i’ve used my 809 for about 3 years every day and i’ve dropped it a couple times once off a scissor lift from 30 feet and it still worked fine. All it does is take our 1/4 5/16 3/8 head screws.
I’m glad this looks like it turned out to be a solid choice. I kind of just stumbled upon the combo kit and didn’t have an impact driver at all and decided to pick it up.
I’m in the service business and use mine daily, I have a lot of dewalt tools and my nail guns are now cordless. I use to get the cheap atomic combos back in the day and when the xr came out I purchased it and it rocked so I’ve stuck with them ever since then, I will say I’ve had to replace my impact driver twice due to the power surge issues. The drill driver has been a beast and fine. I’m going to get a new atomic just because it looks cool and seems legit.
Been using my 850 every day two weeks from now and I have no regrets at all. 887 been on my tool box since a went to my local depot and bought the new atomic. I even test it against my 887 and it really performed really well beating the XR in almost every test. I’m a drywall framer
How has the 850 held up for you.
I do love the small size of the Dewalt 850 and the power, But I will sacrifice power etc to precision and that’s why I am a huge fan of the Makita XDT16 it’s also compact as-well. I just prefer it because of the different modes you can place that tool in with the touch pad to allow the tool to be more precise in delicate operations.
U can get the 850 with the mode selector
I have the XR driver because the HD sales associate told me the Atomic was coming out for DIY weekenders and not for tradesmen. I don’t recall even checking the price difference.
the dcf850 is a fantastic impact driver
New 850 looks pretty good and performed well too. I'll be interested to see if they do a new XR compact impact driver. Either way I currently have enough drivers so no reason to rush out for a 850 even with the awesome size.
#beltsandboxes
It's amazing how small these new compact Drivers are getting. The size gets smaller but the performance remains the same.
#BeltsandBoxes
I freaking love my dcf850. It replaced my dcf787, it wasn’t powerful enough for driving these 6 inch Simpson truess screws. I had to use my dcd999 to get it done fast but I was overwhelmed by the weight and after lifting sheets of osb to the roof the last thing I want to do is work with a heavy drill overhead. It’s so small I can throw it in my diamondback bags.
Hi Dave, all of them did awesome for me, the 850 didn’t fail for me, you sent a boy to do a mans job and it did it, a little bit is not a big deal for me, it’s a awesome tool I give it excellent performance, just my opinion,
its my new favorite impact driver
@@ManCaverTools mine to, I’m very impressed how powerful it is and it’s tiny lol, Dewalt’s done it again, your demonstrations are quality Dave ty,
Sticking with my 887 until it breaks but that small form factor sure is tempting. #beltsandboxes
Just got mine today it’s almost just a handle with a chuck. Lmao pretty zippy impact tho
You can get bothe the dcf809 and dcf709 with two batteries and a charger right now for just under $200. I'd say it's still a good deal.
At work I have a dewalt drill and 1/2”impact wrench.
And a 5yr old Ryobi brushless impact driver. I was recently considering “upgrading” my driver to a dewalt.
But shocked to discover every model of dewalt I can find has a lower torque rating then my 2000 in-lbs ryobi. 😮
I have the 887 and have been happy with it, but that small size looks something that I could get into. Hopefully the next gen brings more power. #beltsandboxes
You really have the best tool test reviews! Big fan man. Never stop pumping put these vids!
I was waiting for this head to head. Been thinking I want the new Atomic (have the 887) this makes me want it more. #beltsandboxes
I switched from the 887 and I didn't think the weight difference was going to be noticeable but to my surprise, it is.
In performance is not a HUGE difference but there's a difference for sure, I do recommend the new atomic 850. I use it daily, BTW
This was great. I have the 1st gen Atomic impact and drill. While the new one is a little better, it isn't quite enough to get me to upgrade (yet). The Atomic is still a huge upgrade from the Black and Decker stuff I had before. #beltsandboxes
Awesome I’m all makita but like the dewalt range
Hello from Illinois... below Springfield here... I enjoy watching your channel.
I thank you Dale
You are close to Milwaukee
The new impact is like 2 tools in one. It is an impact & (almost) a right angle impact. #RealNiceLike! #beltsandboxes
#beltsandboxes Anxious to see your conversion of the DCF850 impact driver to 1/2” impact wrench
Hi rob, this would be interesting the anvil from the dcf901 swop into the 850, very interesting lol,
Great giveaway! I bought an 887 combo 6 months ago. Thanks for helping me make up my mind on the purchase.
I always root for the slowest drill I get paid by the hour but I really do like that new atomic #beltsandboxes
At work I use the 850, awesome driver definitely want my own and will seriously consider the new stubby!! Thanks brother!! #beltsandboxes
All good contenders..... would like to see you use 6 X 6 pressure tx wood and stack them if you have to just to give a more consistent wood density to show the differences without issues of what that log can cause. I'm not usually putting lags through logs haha. Thanks for the video. #beltsandboxes
Just came on here to Like the video. Be back to watch it later. Keep it up MCT!
I thank you King
That 850 has been my best purchase ever
I love that impact driver
I think I need to sell my original Atomics and get the new ones.
worth it
i just bought the 887 , really like your videos
Great comparo. I have the 809 but seriously thinking of upgrading to the 850. This video helped! Thanks!!!
Has always great video
Please dave if you make a versus video again milwaukee please use a high outpout baterie not like ttc
that is the plan :)
@@ManCaverTools 🍻🍻
Switched over to this from the football game once I realized you had a new video up. MCT is my life. #beltsandboxes
I thank you for your sacrifice Erik :)
@@ManCaverTools You bet, Dave!
At 8:42 it says 997 instead of 887 right?
I'm going to just make a guess and say that the impact 887 is going to get an update with the new wrench body with press buttons. That will be the new XR impact.
I much rather the switch over the buttons.
After years of faultless use of Makita battery tools I decided to try DeWalt XR It started when the drill in the kit had NO SECOND SPEED GEAR FITTED, after getting a new kit, my 18v drill put out lots of smoke when drilling a hole in steel with a drill my Makita drill would have had for breakfast. It was repaired under warranty but I haven't trusted it yet, after 3 months the impact driver bit retainer broke, it was replaced and lasted 4 months then broke. The angle grinder Still works but the detent on the tool lock spat the dummy (pacifier to merikans)
I will NEVER BUY A DEWALT TOOL EVER AGAIN. PERIOD.
Great video and honest comparison. Will the Atomic be released everywhere around the world? I am in Australia. Thanks
Great review. Keep em coming
Good video, was curious to see how the new Atomic would stack up to the 887 #beltsandboxes
I have the xr and love it. However I have never used an atomic before.
Flex is gonna win for sure between that and the hilti. I love to watch your vs videos but I can tell alot of times whose gonna win by their performance from previous videos
Can't wait for the Halloween special! Also can't wait to see whatever #BeltsandBoxes puts out then too
You misspelled the hashtag. Idk if that would mess your chances up of winning or not but wanted to let you know.
@@TsunauticusIV thanks for pointing that out!
@@pouuko7656 yw 🙏
Dave is an OG #beltsandboxes crew member, man the first member.
Dave awesome content new to this channel stopped watching other tool reviews keep up the great work
#beltsandboxes
The review was great but I feel it would have been better 5ah across the board
The 850 might be DeWalt ‘s top of the line impact driver for now…..
But we want a rematch! 887 vs 850 with same size ah batteries, vs a new contender the skinny dcf840 replacing the dcf787 much the same way the 850 replaced the 809. All with same battery as well! Will the 840 best the 850??
And for battle of the brushless DeWalt bargain bins. Who wins the dcf809 or the dcf787??
Rocking the dcf850
love that impact driver
The 850 is nice but dont think I'll be driving giant 8 inch lags going to get the 809 on sale and save a couple bucks
you should try makita DT172D impact and see how you feel
Strong work MCT. I’ve enjoyed watching you progress with your videos and livestreams. You’ve inspired me to create my own tool channel once I get out of college. Keep up the good work and be safe. #BeltsandBoxes
Great video!! I love OPT. Thanks for doing this. #beltsandboxes.
Are they trying to move the Atomic range from handyman / DIY to trade ? I’ve kept away from anything with Atomic on it for my trade tools so interesting to see the results here.
I believe they are. Atomic actually just means compact. It's their compact line of tools but I agree, I wouldn't buy anything atomic before. Things are changing in dewalt land.
@@b-2466 I see this also, new tools like the low-range DCF923 impact wrench now have the nice push button speed/lamp controls like its 2 bigger brothers but bears the atomic label. It no longer means a cut down version of the full XR tool anymore, but a full featured modern compact tool, for example the newer compact 1 3/4" bandsaw also has the atomic label yet its a full quality tradesmen tool for the conduit jockeys. Overall it makes the brand less confusing now knowing you aren't getting a 'cut down' version of the tool anymore just because it bears the atomic name like when the lineup was first introduced. Cheers.
#Beltsandboxes keep up the good work man. You make great videos 📹.
good afternoon, I just wanted to say that you are the Winner for the $200 Ohio Power Tool gift card. Congratulations, would you messege me on Facebook please.
that DCF850 is going to be pretty sweet impact driver with the new power stack batteries. #beltsandboxes
Great video. Please don’t stop making them.
#BeltsandBoxes.
Lol that editing was awesome #beltsandboxes
#beltsandboxes I always enjoy the content from both channels.
03:29 Im curious as to why you didn't give the dcf850 more time to complete the lag bolt?
Flex is going to DOMINATE LOL. #Beltsandboxes
so 850 is basically faster, but doesn't have the high end torque that the 887 or even earlier atomic 809 has?
Two things detract me from that impact. The fact that the speed bore fell out meaning it might have a bit retention pin issue similar to that of the older m18 gen 3 fuel and the fact that it does not have the new selector mode dial that the impact wrenches do... like why couldn't they just put some effort in to incorporate that into this to? That selector switch is truly maddening have used it not a fan whatsoever!
How are you doing Dave ;?? Good video man
I like the new inpact drill but I wounder if they are thinking of making a drill driver for the inpac the same way ??
I guess it's just a m18 stubby with black and yellow but who cares it's cool
#belts and boxes
The new Atomic is a winner for sure!
#Belts and boxes love your stuff keep it up
#BELTSANDBOXES
thank you! interesting video
What’s the drill bit for the lug driver
That’s really weird to see the 809 do something the 850 couldn’t
OG! #beltsandboxes I want the new Atomic 850 Compact so bad! 🙏🏻. Still running the 809
Awesome content as always Dave, keep up the great work! #BeltsandBoxes
#tools and boxes thanks cause I have all the dewalt tool you are reviewing
I was debating on switching to fuel because of their compact drills but they're so pricey... And I have so many yellows... After I found out DeWalt released 850 and in December 2021 releasing smaller, lighter & more run time 20v stack lithium batteries... I ain't going no where. #Beltsandboxes
Those batteries do not have more runtime, they crap out faster than a 2ah, they just put out a lot of power very fast. That is why they drain faster.
Man it always was that way but honestly their about the same with DeWalt being a little more now lol
I'm a small engine mechanic and I can 100% say Dewalt impact drivers are garbage I'm a milwaukee fuel guy all the way
#beltsandboxes Sooo EXCITED I just picked up the 850 yesterday! NICE to see it works so well! Thanks for the video!
Dang I have both of the ones that didn’t do better. Now I have to go buy another one. Geez.
Seeing the speed bore fall out the new atomic makes me wonder if the single ball bearing is having the same trouble as the milwaukee gen 3 with bit retention
it does only have a single ball bearing
Gosh, I sure hope not. Figured we had learned our lesson from the Gen 3.
@@erik34 I guess their is always the possibility that the colet snagged the wood and ejected the piece
Thank you for the video #BeltsandBoxes
I thank you Tammy
@@ManCaverTools you are welcome
#BeltsandBoxes cant wait to see how they stack up to milwaukee
I have been waiting for this comparison. #beltsandboxes
If I wasn't a diehard Milwaukee fan I'd definitely be on the DeWalt platform. #beltsandboxes
Need you to test DCF921 vs the milwaukee gen3 stubby impact wrench #beltsandboxes
I'm excited to get my hands on the new batteries #beltsandboxes
I am as well. I wanna see how they perform
Looking forward to the Halloween special #BeltsandBoxes
Best reviews and tools tests, helped me find the right tools for the wife and for my work field . Thank you #beltsandboxes
#beltsandboxes I love all the hard work you put into making your videos all by yourself! Props to you my main man
Great vid thanks for the useful information. #Beltsandboxes
I love your videos man!!!!
Belts and box’s lol nice review
Love your videos
Atomic over Makita xdt16? I don’t understand this thought process.
Great video as always! #BeltsandBoxes
Keep up the awesome work sir! #beltsandboxes
Check out the dcf840. Seems quicker than the 850
My m18 surge today died. My 887 has had 5x the use
New Atomic vs 12v Extreme DCF901b, thoughts????
Like the videos, keep them coming. #beltsandboxes
In uk the Dcf850 is under XR line
that is interesting to know, I thank you Mars
I feel like you should do a separate video of the 850 and 887, and use 5ahs on both of them and see what happens. Great video also!!
#beltsandboxes
I will but with 21700 Cell batteries that will be in the near future
@@ManCaverTools good to hear!!! Keep the videos coming! Love watching!
Good stuff man keep it up. #beltsandboxes.👌
All three have plenty of power to do any reasonable jobs. But the size of the new atomic makes is so attractive. They will sell a ton of these.
#Beltsandboxes
#beltsandboxes I’m very anxious to test the new tiny atomic driver. I’m waiting for the bare tool, I don’t really need another 5ah battery.
