What can one say about the specific DeWalt DCK266P2 set with 18v, 5.0Ah batteries, it's worth the money for what it offers in terms of the most economical and honest choices in the market out there, with a 3-year warranty (1+2).
Good and high-quality construction and materials, very powerful batteries that get the job done.
I find the comments referring to the battery attachment completely insignificant, they have a very, very slight shake.
It's really nothing special and not annoying at all, it won't affect you during your work, you have absolutely nothing to fear!
Both DeWalt tools have a BRUSHLESS motor.
Both the Drill/Driver and the Impact Driver.
At work, for some years now we have been using another DeWalt set, the DCK2062D2T series with 2.0Ah batteries, which also includes a drill/driver and an impact driver but with smaller batteries.
So it was at least a one-way street for me personally to choose this brand and this specific DeWalt DCK266P2 set for personal use.
Also, for those who choose it, prefer the official DeWalt sellers in Greece.
And also, immediately after purchasing the product, make a direct declaration on the official DeWalt website with the store receipt to get an additional 2 years of warranty (total of 3 years, 1 year from the purchase date and 2 more from the time you declare it to DeWalt), make the declaration relatively soon and quickly because there is a 10-day margin from the purchase date.
Both DeWalt tools have clips to attach to your belt, and on the other side they have a magnet to hold Phillips bits, screws, etc. for quick access.
Both have LED lights to see markings better for drilling, screwing, etc.
The drill/driver has 2 functions for the LED light it has, the first two levels are for the intensity of the light (high-low), and the third level is for a flashlight-like function with a stronger light that remains permanently on in that level without turning off the light.
The impact driver has 3 speed settings.
The first setting is considered ideal for screwing screws.
In terms of weight, it's relatively okay (the situation is manageable, I would say).
Don't forget that due to the size of the batteries (5.0Ah), they make it heavy, both the impact driver and the drill/driver.
A small drawback, in my opinion, is the carrying case.
DeWalt could have done a much better design on the inside, especially in the part where you place the drill/driver, the impact driver, the batteries, and the charger, that's mainly what I'm referring to in that part of the case.
You could fit some more things inside the case, you lose space in that section and it's not negligible.
The good thing is that there is an independent compartment integrated into the lid where you can put some things (mainly for drills and extensions for bits for screws, etc., those are the compartments it has, it doesn't fit anything else).
Some older suitcases I have the impression that they did not have this compartment??
Also, the suitcase of the set has an elastic band around the lid, making it waterproof and dustproof.
Also very important to check the manufacturing date of this set.
It is written on the batteries and on the 2 machines above them.
It is good to prefer batches as much as possible within the year to ensure greater durability of the batteries.
For example, my batch now is 2022 (June)
