Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between DeWalt XR and standard batteries?

XR batteries use advanced lithium-ion technology to provide extended runtime compared to standard battery packs. They maintain consistent power output throughout the charge cycle and can be used across all DeWalt XR cordless tools. XR is purely about battery performance and is independent of whether a tool features brushless motor technology.

Are DeWalt drills suitable for masonry work?

Yes, DeWalt combi drills feature a hammer function specifically designed for drilling into brick, block and concrete. For professional masonry applications, choose models with higher impact energy ratings and ensure you're using appropriate masonry drill bits.

Can I use my existing DeWalt batteries with new XR drills?

DeWalt maintains excellent compatibility across their 18v battery platform. XR tools accept both XR and standard 18v DeWalt batteries, though XR batteries will deliver superior runtime and performance.
