Dewalt 20V Cordless Impact Wrench Review – DCF899P1
Choosing an impact wrench is hard. However, choosing a good cordless one is probably the hardest. Not only are there thousands of models to select from, but most of them also are not durable. The biggest complaint when it comes to them is that they cannot generate enough power and speed like an air impact wrenches, and are not long-lasting. This is why we set out to look for a cordless that is not only strong and durable but robust and be able to handle heavy-duty tasks. After checking hundreds of models, we decided that Dewalt DCF899P1 was really promising and this is our Dewalt 20V Cordless Impact Wrench Review.

It comes with a switch button to set 3 different speeds. Not only is it lightweight and ergonomically designed, but it also has LED lights with 20 seconds delay system. It requires a battery of 20 volts to function. The packaging includes a tool, a 5.0 Ah battery, and its multi-voltage charger.
