DCK385C2 (Discontinued)

Dewalt DKC385C2 is the 3 piece combo kit from the Dewalt 20V Max product series and is often referred to as the ‘Dewalt combo kit with radio’.

It includes 3 tools and related accessories like a battery charger and a bag.Dewalt DKC3852

The included gadgets are:

  • DCF885 1/4-inch impact driver
  • DCD785 compact hammer drill
  • DCR018 worksite radio

The cool thing is all these tools share the same lithium-ion battery pack. The kit comes with 2 batteries.

Here is an interesting thing. The worksite radio can be powered not only by the included 20V Max battery but also by 12V Max or 18V NiCad/Li-Ion batteries, and it also can be plugged into the wall outlet. That means you will not waste the battery power on listening to music if you have a wall outlet at hand.

If you have paid attention to the recent new Dewalt product, you should notice that DKC385C2 is very similar to DKC285C2. The main difference is that the 385 kit features a radio.

If you compare the prices of these two products you will see that the price difference is several tens of dollars.

Is it worth to pay extra for durable radio with a digital tuner, LCD display with clock, five AM/FM presets, a USB power port you can use for charging your other gadgets, and an auxiliary port for connection to digital audio devices? I believe it is a sweet deal.

Dewalt DCS380 vs DCS381

I noticed that people are often searching for differences between DCS380 and DCS381 reciprocating saws and I decided to look into it.

When I compared DCS381 vs DCS380 it was difficult to see any differences. The product descriptions on Amazon and Dewalt website are identical, so I had to dig deeper.

Here is what I found. According to user reviews, the DCS381, in fact, features shorter stroke and lacks 4-way blade holder. DCS381 is believed to be a cheaper version of DCS380 specially designed for including in combo kits.

5 Things To Consider When Buying A Tool Set

Budget

One of the first things that you need to do is to think about how much you are willing to spend on the tool set. If you do not have the luxury of financial resources, settle with the basic toolsets, which may be limited in terms of contents, but reasonable when it comes to the price tag.

Contents

Make sure that the tool set contains all of the materials that will be needed for the projects that you anticipate completing. It is impossible to have everything in one box because of the limitless tools that can be used depending on your intent. It will be good to first have an idea of your projects to know the tools you need.

Durability

To be provided with the best value for your money, you can make sure that the toolset is durable, which equates to its ability to be functional for a longer period of time. This means that you will not need to buy a new one and that you can expect the toolset to maintain its best possible quality for a long.

Motor

Many of the tools that you will need in the completion of specific projects will be required to be powered by a reliable motor. In this case, make sure to choose a model with a motor that provides high output and the ability to tackle a wide array of tasks and materials to make it flexible on various projects.

Ease of Use

It is also good to make sure that all of the tools will promote convenience on the part of the user, which means that it will not lead into fatigue when used, especially for an extended period of time. It should also have a case that will provide storage and will make it easy to carry depending on where the job is to be done.
