For industrial work the 850 is great. The compact design really makes a huge difference when you are working inside a machine. It may seem like that extra inch or so of clearance doesn't matter but it really does.
Never had an issue w/my 887 works as it should but i still bring out my 885 still going strong 10 years after i bought it. Change brushes is all ive done+get the job done a tick slower but runs strong as the day i bought it.
Atomic dcf850 has a special function on lowest power setting 1(on setting 2 and 3 it works as soon as you touch trigger). However on 1, you can press it all the way down, and first second it will turn a smidge first(like engaging into the grews of a fine screw) and then will start screwing it down. It does it only on 1st power setting.
I've never had a problem with my 887. It's always handled everything I've thrown at it including taking the lugs off of my cars and it definitely seems like mine works faster than yours in this video. It also didn't sound like your 887 was impacting, which is strange. But, I recently did an anvil swap and put the ⅜" square drive on my 887. Now it's straight up a little beast! I can't believe how fast it takes the lugs off the wheels now.
Does a couple of seconds really matter really. I don't ever time myself when driving screws Ive had my 887 for many years and Ive driven everything Ive ever need to.
I like the idea that i can have a smaller tools that's more powerful but if it means spending twice the money then its not worth it to me. My 887 has lasted years, no intention on getting rid of it
Love the 840 best driver, of all i have over 15 models, It's a combination, lightweight, but enough power and very comfortable. Even better is probably the cheapest
El 845 es mejor que el 840? Estoy por comprar un atornillador de impacto pero tengo esas dudas! Cual es más potente y mejor calidad entre los 2? Y sabran sus precios actuales...
Thank you for the honest review. This is the first time I hear about that downside of the 850. I am new to DW and that really put me off. Guess I´ll stick to my Makitas!
@@craignbros That is so true! The 850 has a really attractive format and power but to me triggerfeel is way more important. Most drivers are powerfull enough for me. Something that I think isn´t weighed in enough in tests here on RUclips.
The reason why you guys have an issue when screwing those screws (impact gun jumping off head screws) is becouse you are using PH2 (philips) bit when these screws are designed to use on them PZ2 (pozidrive) bits.😉
@@jacobsebastien3910 I'm going to retest them and switch 1.7 and 5.0 power stack batteries back and forth but to me the only difference is the 845 has a Speed control

Driving any lag bolts that long, I would use the dcf 921 impact wrench

Oh that's interesting, I haven't seen any videos of that function 🤔 I'll definitely check that out

That sounds awesome! I'd love to see that in action if you could make a quick vid on it

Check out Man Caver Tools and the Torque Test Channel.
That's where I got the idea from.
@@joshuaewalker Agreed. I've had 2 887 for years, and completely trouble free until the collet just wore out. Replaced it with the same model.

When you do 500 screws a day yes
Stop pulling the trigger like a little bitch that might help

There are up and down sides to any tool, I'm just tryna share what I know and take you guys with me to learning new things 😁

Dcf 840 the best driver Dewalt makes , I pared it with a 6amp battery and it’s even better.
Привет 🖐️
Недавно купил себе 850 он очень хорош.
Never had the “ weird thing” happen on my 850. Ive used every mode.
yeah it's properly defect. he should get it repaired
I love the Craftsman version, CMCF820. Using the newer v20 6AH battery.
Dcf887 love it💯
dewalt tools been held with milwaukee gloves nice move 😂
😉😉🤣🤣

Mantap
You can't use a screw gun worth a shit 😂
My 850 sucks! Poor power band. Cams out bad when used on screws. Will be returning it.....
Please stop using phillips screws for these tests, we all know they are crap. Also I would do a warranty on that DCF850.
I bet you that xr was no on speed 3
It was, out of the three I like the XR the most so I wanted it to win but the 840 is just stronger
You should get the 845 I got it it's not much faster than the 840 and it will get smoked by Milwaukee and RIDGID and FLEX have my own RUclips channel
Definitely planning to, prolly sell my 887. I'll do a vid once I do get it 😁. Nice I'll go check out ur channel!
I seen a video where the 840 was the Same Speed as the 845.
Lol you said the 845 is much faster Smh quit lying to yourself'
I said hopefully 😞

Dcf 888 is dewalts best impact
