DEWALT DCD771C2 review
A general-purpose compact drill/driver kit with two included batteries.
The DCD771C2 combines a compact 20V MAX drill/driver with a two-speed transmission rated at 0–450 and 0–1,500 RPM. DEWALT lists 300 UWO and a 1/2-inch chuck.
Its biggest practical advantage in this comparison is the kit configuration: two batteries, a charger and contractor bag. That can reduce downtime for users who want to keep one battery charging.
- Two batteries included
- Two-speed transmission
- Compact general-purpose format
- Strong all-round kit configuration
- Brushed motor rather than brushless
- Does not include the large accessory assortment of the BLACK+DECKER kit
BLACK+DECKER BDC120VA100 review
A home-DIY oriented package with a large accessory assortment.
The BDC120VA100 package is built around BLACK+DECKER’s 20V MAX POWERCONNECT drill/driver platform. It includes a 1.5Ah battery, charger and a 100-piece accessory kit.
Its 24-position clutch is designed to provide control across common drilling and screwdriving tasks. The standout reason to consider this package is breadth of included accessories rather than a premium motor design.
- 100-piece accessory kit
- 24-position clutch
- Good fit for first-time home DIY buyers
- 20V MAX POWERCONNECT ecosystem
- Smaller included battery than the DCD777D1 kit
- Brushed motor
DEWALT DCD777D1 review
The brushless option in this three-product comparison.
The DCD777D1 uses a brushless motor and DEWALT lists 340 UWO. It has a two-speed transmission and comes with a 2.0Ah XR battery, charger and belt hook.
This is the option to look at if brushless motor design and the higher stated UWO rating matter more to you than receiving two batteries or a large accessory kit.
- Brushless motor
- 340 UWO
- 2.0Ah XR battery included
- Compact 7.6-inch length
- Only one battery in the kit
- Fewer accessories than the BLACK+DECKER package
How to choose a cordless drill
- Motor type: brushless motors generally reduce mechanical wear from brushes and can improve efficiency.
- Battery setup: two batteries can be more useful than one if you regularly work for longer periods.
- Accessory kit: a large kit can be valuable for a first-time buyer, but only if you will use the included bits and accessories.
- Speed ranges: multiple speed ranges give you more control for different drilling and driving tasks.
- Chuck size: a 1/2-inch chuck is common on general-purpose 20V class drill/drivers.
- Platform compatibility: if you already own batteries from a brand, staying in the same battery ecosystem can matter more than small spec differences.
