DeWalt 20V MAX Price List by Tool Type
The 20V MAX platform covers more than 300 tools, so the list below focuses on the core cordless categories buyers search for most. Bare-tool pricing assumes you already own batteries.
| Tool category | Example model | Bare tool range | Kit with battery(ies) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Compact drill/driver | DCD800 (Atomic/XR) | $90–$140 | $160–$220 |
| Hammer drill | DCD805, DCD999 | $140–$230 | $250–$360 |
| Impact driver | DCF850, DCF860 | $100–$170 | $180–$280 |
| Impact wrench (mid/high torque) | DCF891, DCF900 | $230–$350 | $330–$450 |
| Circular saw (6½”–7¼”) | DCS570, DCS574 | $150–$220 | $230–$330 |
| Reciprocating saw | DCS382 | $140–$200 | $220–$300 |
| Angle grinder (4½–5″) | DCG413 | $130–$170 | $200–$280 |
| Oscillating multi-tool | DCS356 | $130–$170 | $190–$260 |
| Brad/finish nailer | DCN680, DCN660 | $300–$400 | $400–$520 |
| SDS rotary hammer | DCH273 | $250–$380 | $400–$550 |
Pattern to notice: “Atomic” compact models sit at the low end of each range, standard XR brushless models in the middle, and POWER DETECT or premium-spec tools at the top. If a bare tool is priced within $30 of a kit that includes a battery and charger, the kit is almost always the better buy.
FLEXVOLT 60V MAX Pricing
FLEXVOLT tools run on packs that switch between 20V and 60V, and the tools cost more — the math only makes sense if you genuinely need the extra power for framing, concrete, or extended rip cuts.
| Tool | Example model | Bare tool range |
|---|---|---|
| 7¼” circular saw | DCS578 | $250–$300 |
| Reciprocating saw | DCS386 | $190–$240 |
| 4½–6″ grinder | DCG418 | $170–$210 |
| 8¼” table saw | DCS7485 | $380–$470 |
| 12″ sliding miter saw (120V MAX) | DHS790 | $600–$750 |
Hidden cost: a bare FLEXVOLT tool still needs a FLEXVOLT battery, which adds $120–$330 depending on amp-hours. First-time FLEXVOLT buyers should budget accordingly or buy the tool in a starter kit.
Battery and Charger Prices — and the Cost-per-Watt-Hour Trick
| Pack | Capacity | Typical range |
|---|---|---|
| DCB203 (20V) | 2.0 Ah | $60–$80 |
| DCB205 (20V) | 5.0 Ah | $90–$120 |
| DCB208 (20V) | 8.0 Ah | $140–$170 |
| DCB210 (20V) | 10.0 Ah | $160–$200 |
| DCB606 (FLEXVOLT) | 6.0 Ah | $120–$160 |
| DCB612 (FLEXVOLT) | 12.0 Ah | $210–$260 |
| DCB615 (FLEXVOLT) | 15.0 Ah | $270–$330 |
| DCB115 charger / DCB1104 fast charger | — | $40–$60 / $60–$90 |
Here’s the calculation worth doing before buying packs at full price. A 5Ah 20V pack holds about 100 watt-hours. Bought singly at ~$110, you’re paying roughly $1.10 per Wh. A two-pack of 5Ah batteries frequently drops to $99–$129 during spring and holiday events — that’s about $0.55–$0.65 per Wh, literally half the cost for the same energy. Batteries are the single most discounted item in DeWalt’s catalog; paying list price for a single pack is the most common way buyers overspend.
Combo Kits: What the Prices Really Buy You
- 2-tool drill + impact kits (compact, 2×small batteries, DCK240C2/DCK278C2 class): $160–$240
- 2-tool XR kits with 2×5Ah packs (DCK299M2/P2 class): $330–$420
- 4–6 tool kits (adds saw, light, grinder): $450–$600
- 9-tool kits (DCK940D2 class): $700–$900
The savings are real: a typical 2-tool XR kit at $350–$400 replaces roughly $600–$630 of separate purchases (hammer drill ~$180, impact ~$150, two 5Ah packs ~$220, charger ~$50, bag ~$30) — about 40% off. But large kits only pay off if you’ll use most of the tools; a $750 nine-tool kit where four tools never leave the bag is worse value than a $400 kit used weekly.
What to Buy Based on Your Situation
| Your situation | Smart buy | Realistic budget |
|---|---|---|
| Occasional DIY, a few projects a year | Atomic compact 2-tool kit + buy bare tools later | $180–$250 |
| Regular renovation/home projects | XR 2-tool kit with 5Ah packs, add bare saw/grinder | $450–$650 |
| Framing, concrete, heavy cuts | FLEXVOLT saw/rotary hammer + 9–12Ah pack | $500–$800 |
| Automotive/mechanical work | Mid or high-torque impact wrench + 5Ah | $300–$450 |
| Already on 20V MAX, expanding | Bare tools only; batteries exclusively during 2-pack promos | $100–$250 per tool |
When DeWalt Prices Drop
- March–April (spring promos): bare-tool deals and early battery bundles, typically 15–25% off.
- Late May–June (Memorial Day/Father’s Day): historically the best battery two-pack and starter-kit pricing of the first half of the year.
- September (Labor Day): moderate markdowns, mostly on kits.
- November–December (Black Friday through the holidays): the deepest cuts of the year — 25–45% off kits, free-bare-tool-with-starter-kit promotions, and sub-$130 battery two-packs.
- January–February: clearance on leftover holiday kit configurations; selection is thinner but discounts can be steep.
If a purchase isn’t urgent, pricing history says to wait for June or November rather than pay list.
Ownership Costs the Sticker Doesn’t Show
- Batteries wear out first. Expect noticeable capacity loss after roughly 300–500 charge cycles or 3–5 years. Store packs at partial charge, not dead or fully topped off for months.
- Wear items: keyless drill chucks loosen over time, impact-driver anvils/collets wear with heavy bit changes, and recip saw shoes bend. None are expensive fixes, but they show up before motor failure on brushless tools.
- Warranty: most DeWalt cordless tools carry a 3-year limited warranty, 1-year free service contract, and 90-day return window — factor that into value versus cheaper brands.
- Common mistakes: putting a heavy 12Ah FLEXVOLT pack on a compact drill (fatigue outweighs runtime), and buying nailers or miter saws bare without accounting for the big battery they need.
How This Compares to a Hilti Power Tools Price List
Shoppers cross-shopping pro brands should know the two price structures are fundamentally different. Hilti’s 22V Nuron platform sits roughly 2–3× higher: a Nuron drill/driver like the SF 6-22 runs about $240–$330 bare versus DeWalt’s $90–$140, a rotary hammer such as the TE 4-22 lands around $450–$550 versus $250–$380 for DeWalt’s SDS, and B 22 battery packs run approximately $130–$220 each. Hilti sells primarily direct with relatively stable pricing and little seasonal discounting; the premium partly buys fleet services, repair logistics, and jobsite support aimed at commercial crews. For prosumer and residential trade use, DeWalt’s retail pricing — especially during sale windows — delivers a lower cost per tool by a wide margin.
FAQ
Is it cheaper to buy a DeWalt kit or individual tools?
Kits save roughly 35–45% versus buying the same tools, batteries, and charger separately — but only if you’ll use everything in the box. Once you own two batteries and a charger, bare tools are the efficient path.
Are FLEXVOLT batteries compatible with 20V MAX tools?
Yes. FLEXVOLT packs automatically run at 20V in 20V MAX tools (at reduced amp-hour output) and 60V in FLEXVOLT tools. 20V MAX packs do not work in FLEXVOLT tools.
When is the absolute cheapest time to buy?
Late November for kits and multi-tool bundles, late May to June for battery two-packs and starter kits. Bare tools discount modestly year-round but rarely more than $20–$40.
