Overview
The DEWALT DCE555B is a 20 volt cordless router weighing 2.05 pounds and spinning up to 26,000 RPM, sized for compact trim and edge routing work.

Who it's for
Suits anyone already on DeWalt's 20 volt battery platform who wants a light, cordless router for trim or edge work away from an outlet. Less suited to buyers who need a complete kit with battery and charger, since that is not confirmed here.
Pros and cons

- Light at 2.05 pounds
- Cordless on DeWalt 20 volt platform
- Battery and charger inclusion not confirmed

Performance notes
26,000 RPM on a battery-powered router is a strong top speed for trim work, and at 2.05 pounds the DCE555B stays light enough for extended one-handed use along edges and templates. Battery power trades outlet dependence for portability, useful on job sites without ready power.
