Overview

The DCD701F2 is a battery powered drill from DEWALT running on a 12 volt system, drawing 2 amps at up to 1500 RPM. At just 1.9 pounds, it is built as a compact drill driver for tight spaces and one handed control.

The 12 volt platform trades some torque for lighter weight, which fits users prioritizing maneuverability over maximum drilling power.

The 12 volt, 2 amp motor spins up to 1500 RPM, giving enough power for driving screws and drilling smaller holes while keeping the tool at just 1.9 pounds for extended one handed use. That lighter platform trades peak torque for reduced fatigue.
