At first glance, this seems like a screaming hot deal for the 921. Currently $229 for the tool only at HD (which I would never suggest paying). I am so tempted to just grab it despite being in the market for the big brother mid-torque 891....decisions, decisions.

I also believe this bare tool was part of the (now expired) HD promotion. After hack, that would have put the tool only price around $120-$140 (I cannot confirm as the deal is dead). https://www.homedepot.com/p/DEWAL.../316627128

FWIW, this thing beats Milwaukee, which was surprising to me. TTC video here:

That's a typo apparently. Dewalt is frankly about as simple as anyone for MUST USE, slightly more complicated for BEST PERFORMANCE. In a nutshell:
All batteries have a capacity (1.5-15ah currently available) and a maximum amperage discharge which isn't exactly documented. Bigger and more batteries can increase both, but there are tradeoffs. Below are the current lines as best I can summarize in a quick post.

12v line - AFAIK 12v is 12v for the most part, bigger batteries may perform a little better
20v line - regardless of LMNOP alphabet soup they all can use 20v or 60v batteries
Flexvolt/60v line - must use flexvolt 60 v batteries
All tools pretty much benefit to a degree from using a larger battery as more and larger cells can typically discharge at a higher amp rate. There are two specific sub model lines with added benefits:
Flexvolt advantage - performs best with flexvolt batteries (15 cells per battery) but also gains performance from larger capacity 10 cell batteries like the 5ah and up
Power detect - similar to flexvolt advatange but not optimized for flexvolt specifically.

Essentially all dewalt batteries other than this one are made from one of two cell types 18500 and 21700s, 21700s have more capacity and can discharge more amperage, adding more cells adds to the discharge ability. You can tell by the "width" of the pack which cells are used, and the height of the pack you can tell how many cells. All current flexvolt batteries I'm aware of use 15 cells (4v x 15=60 or 20 when run as 3 sets of 5 in series) where 20v can use any increment of 5 cell sets in series. Powerstack being the exception, currently available as a 1.7ah but a larger version is coming, they use "pouch" batteries that take up a lot less space and have a high discharge limit, but the current unit at least has a very low capacity.

Traida2 is pretty spot on.

Previous sales value this tool at $100. There's not a good price metric yet for powerstack batteries, definitely spendier than your standard 20v $10/ah baseline. $17 shipping might tip it out of slick range, but definitely a decent deal if you need the tool, battery, and charger right now.

Well, looks like shipping may no longer be available. I spent too much time trying to find addition cash back 😩 FWIW, I am not in CA

I'm in for one. Thank you OP!

Just had to help the parents replace all their brake pads. This will make next time much easier.

I got the same message, but it didn't actually remove it, and let me proceed with the purchase. I wish the shipping wasn't so expensive, but the 10-off coupon softened the blow a little.

I own this tool. It's incredible for its size, you won't be disappointed. I also have the 891 for extreme circumstances but find myself hardly ever needing it, 921 is a beast!

You may have just convinced me. I was worried about needing the extra torque for wobble sockets, etc, but I am just a DIYer (not typically in need of 800ft lbs break way like the 891 can offer).

Haha, good call. I just exited. Should have attempted to proceed 😁


Update: I had to do it. Oddly, (perhaps because I live outside of their market?), my sales tax was $0.00 despite having tax in my state. Saved $8.33 from the cart price. Shipping also dropped to $16.99 from the $17.99 in the cart. Odd.

I wonder if sites are dynamic enough now to tack on price increases automatically (like increasing shipping) when they see a increase in interest/click-throughs to a specific product. 🤔

To chime in, I ditched my DCF894 and DCF890 when I got the 3/8 version of this guy (923 I think) as it's 90% of the 894 in 110% of the footprint of the 890. And the powerstack batteries, while imho overpriced at the moment outside of kits, are pretty darn good. Low total energy capacity, but tiny and very high amperage discharge capability. Basically it's a tiny battery that hits like a double stack (5ah size) battery but doesn't last as long. Feels great on a 887 impact driver and I bet would be a great match to this, haven't put it on my 893 yet.

Can some tell me what this means? Will my XR batteries not work with this? "Requires 20V MAX POWERSTACK Compact Battery - included"

I'm a diyer slowly moving brands from Ridgid to DeWalt and it's been difficult to understand all dewalts product and battery lines. Currently have a few of the XR tools but have also been looking at the latest atomic drill/drivers.

Saw a review at DeWalt - "purchased to use for work to take off lug nuts. wouldn't break free lugs at 160ftlbs despite 450ftlbs rating."

Is this accurate?

Not the least bit. Probably someone that doesn't know what they're doing and / or a tire shop tightened the lugs way beyond spec.

My 2021 f150 is rated at 150 ft lbs and I tighten them to spec. This little gun zaps them off without any hesitation.

I also just helped my brother in law do rear brakes and new calipers on a 10 year old kia. Everything was rusted beyond belief, Pittsburgh winters to blame. This little gun knocked it out of the park. Kia optima's require removing a few suspension components to access the caliber bracket bolts in the rear. It removed everything I tried. Truly a remarkable gun for its size.
