Key Features
Atomic Compact Size: At only 5.1 inches front-to-back, it is 18% shorter than the standard brushless model, allowing access to confined spaces.
Brushless Motor: Provides efficient performance and longer runtime compared to brushed motors, with 1,700 in-lbs of torque for handling most fastening applications.
3-LED Light Ring: Features three LEDs arranged around the chuck to provide shadow-free illumination of the work area.
Variable Speed Trigger: Allows for precise control of speed (unlike the 3-speed selector on the XR models, this uses trigger pressure only).
One-Handed Bit Loading: The 1/4″ hex chuck allows you to push the bit in to lock it without pulling the sleeve back.

Common Use Cases
This tool is perfect for HVAC installation, cabinet assembly, and deck building. It is designed for users who need a lightweight tool for repetitive driving tasks but do not need the extreme power or 3-speed control of the premium “XR” line (like the DCF887).
*Note: “20V MAX” refers to the maximum initial battery voltage (measured without a workload), which is 20 volts. Nominal voltage is 18 volts.
