These compact 1.7Ah DeWALT Powerstack batteries are best for lighter tools where size and weight matter, especially drills, drivers, wrenches, and power pruners. The smaller form factor makes extended use easier, and the pack can still briefly handle higher draw tools like impact wrenches. Runtime is the main limitation, since circular saws, angle grinders, and chainsaws can drain them fast. The branding has also changed over time, with newer packs showing XR and older ones showing Power Stack labeling.

  • These 1.7Ah Powerstack batteries deliver sustained power over the course of a charge in a compact form factor.

  • These batteries can briefly run higher-draw tools like impact wrenches without needing a larger pack immediately.

  • These batteries can be a practical fit for power pruners because the smaller pack helps avoid added weight.

  • These batteries can work fine for drills and other lower-power items even when the received labeling is older.

  • Some shipments may include older-labeled packs, which can create uncertainty even when the batteries still function.

  • A circular saw can drain 1.7Ah Powerstack batteries quickly, making them a poor match for long cutting sessions.

  • High-draw tools such as angle grinders or chainsaws can consume these batteries much faster than lower-draw tools.

  • The 1.7Ah capacity can feel too small to be worthwhile for many users' needs.

I wonder if this is the typical Lowes old stock or if these are the newer design batteries.

Are 1.7Ah power stack batteries better than 3.5Ah and higher batteries and are they recommended for a 6hr job on circular saw. Impact driver and impact wrench?

Depends on what you are doing during your 6 hour job

A circular saw is gonna drain these in an instant. If you plan on cutting for six hours you're gonna want at least a pair of 5AH or just go corded. They're great for a driver or wrench, but again it all depends on how much work you plan on doing. Some people will use more battery in 30 minutes than others will use in six hours. For example going hog wild with an angle grinder or a chainsaw

30 minutes of work, 5 1/2 hours drinking beer and you'll do just fine in those 6 hours.
You're better off buying 6ah batteries when they go on sale near $10 an ah.
Also recommend a 6 amp charger, so you're not waiting 3 hours for them to recharge.

The battery "badging", should show on the packaging as well. If it has "XR" on the side its newer. If it has "Power Stack" in big letters with the blue lines next to it, its the old versions.

I like these for my power pruners as you're working with the tool arms fully extended so the big batteries weigh you down after a while

I ordered a pack at 8a. at 930a 2pack set delivered to front door.
My package is the Old labeling no XR branding just Power Stack. I had a set from a few years back. No issues. These are fine for drills and other lower power items.

The power powerstack batteries are the newer one (they use cell pouches), and XR are older (they use the traditional cylindrical batteries, like shape of AA)

Edit - looks like I was wrong. Can't keep track of Dewalts branding changes.

I think Loudog504 was right:

https://toolguyd.com/dewalt-20v-x...nges-2026/

"Now, the PowerStack branding is completely gone, with XR branding in an even larger font size."

DeWALT has really changed their labelling on these a lot. For a long while they were PowerStack. Then they shifted to XR and PowerStack both being printed on the battery. Now, on the latest batteries, they will only say XR with the new label.

Also a lot of the tools that used to be labelled XR have now had the XR designation removed. Same tools, just different badging.
