What to know before buying
Listing details to confirm
Listing torque details are inconsistent: the specifications state 1500 ft-lb, while the product description states 1,500 in-lbs. Confirm the applicable torque figure and unit before comparing or selecting the tool. The listed 1.3 amp_hours battery capacity also differs from the included-components claim of a 2Ah battery, so verify the battery supplied with the selected kit.

Who is it for?
A good fit for
- Buyers seeking a cordless 1/4-inch impact driver for fastening work, particularly in tight or hard-to-reach spaces.
- Those who want a brushless motor and a listed battery-and-charger kit rather than a bare tool.
Less suited to
- Buyers who need a confirmed torque rating or battery capacity before purchase, unless the seller or package details resolve the listing discrepancies.
- Those seeking a drill-driver for general drilling rather than an impact driver.

Customer feedback describes the driver as powerful and durable, with reported long charge life, compact size and ease of use. Some buyers specifically mention driving long screws and bolts and appreciating the quick-release bit holder. These are reported experiences, not performance guarantees. The feedback may matter for fastening tasks that benefit from a compact cordless tool, but it does not resolve the listing's conflicting torque units or battery-capacity figures.
Positive themes
- Customers describe the tool as powerful, durable and easy to use.
- Feedback reports long charge life and a compact size.
- Some customers mention effective driving of long screws and bolts and value for the price.
Frequently asked questions
Does the DCF787D1 listing include a battery and charger?
The title says a battery and charger are included, and a manufacturer contents claim lists a DCB203 20V MAX 2Ah battery, a DCB107 charger and a belt hook with the driver. Confirm the selected listing's kit contents, because the specification table gives a different battery capacity.
What torque does this impact driver provide?
The listing conflicts: its specification states 1500 ft-lb, while the description states 1,500 in-lbs. Check the correct unit and figure for the specific kit before purchase.
Is this tool suitable for tight spaces?
The manufacturer describes it as compact and lightweight for hard-to-reach areas, and customer feedback also mentions compact size. The page does not provide a tool-only weight or dimensions, so use the listed overall dimensions cautiously.
Does it have variable speed and an LED light?
Variable Speed is listed as a feature, and the feature claims specify an LED light with a 20-second delay after releasing the trigger. The specification table also lists one speed setting.
