I've a friend that has one. It's not the most powerful one around but he already had dewalt batteries and is happy with it, gives it some abuse too.

Mine is a makita, I find his dewalt to be lighter but haven't noticed any disadvantage to be honest and does what I've asked of it. I think you very rarely use their capabilities to the max.

Got one here too, had it a couple years now and can't fault it, the 3 settings are very handy as well because it's easy to strip threads with it on M12 bolts or smaller.

Had one for 3 years or so, wouldn’t be without it now. Had batteries already so made sense to stick with same brand.
The flexvolt batteries are excellent. Tad more expensive though.

I bought one and used it on a 1957 Ferguson FE35 and there was not a bolt it did not shift . The 4 bolts that held the rear wings resisted my attemps with a ring spanners and length of tube, but DeWalt hammer action soon had them off
