Prismatic cell, a good idea, a long time coming

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Definitely the technology of the future, these batteries are lighter and slightly smaller than an equivalent conventional cell. Prismatic cells fill the battery case in a way that the usual round cells do/can not. Another strong benefit should be the ability of the cell to keep cooler during high discharge - lots of big holes in harder materials in other words. However, the DCBP034 battery says on the packet 50% more power then the DCB203 -...

Small package BIG performance

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The size of this battery and power it has is amazing. Super small and compact, I love that they put rubber on the bottom of the battery for grip. The new battery indicator is in a good spot. Overall this battery is amazing. Looking forward to adding more to my setup.

My best purchase of the year!!!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First impressions are great!! I love how light weight this battery is, it makes holding a tool all day a lot easier on the hands! Charge time is excellent as it tool use time. I definitely need to pick up more of these. Definitely a game changer.

Compact and powerful

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very compact yet still powerful. Performance is second to none. I like to use the smaller batteries for my drills. This battery is perfect when paired with an impact drill. Expect this battery to perform beyond your expectations

Professional Specialty installer

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I reveived this order very quickley. I was surprised at hw light and powerful the stack battery is. I have used it with some of my tools and so far it is a superior option to the older heavier batteries. It charges quickly and lasts under constant use so no changing batteries as often. We use the Deewalt cordless tools as professional installers and am very satified with the results.

Excellent power to rate ratio

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The weight of this battery gives you an advantage over other batteries with the same amperage output. When using continuous, for example, putting slats on a privacy fence, I've always preferred the 1.5 amp hour batteries. This battery gives you the best of both worlds. With it's light weight and added performance and life, it's an excellent choice for those who require their tool to be in their hands for extended period of times.

Lightweight Powerhouse

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A new 20V battery platform has arrived that uses stacked lithium-ion polymer pouch cell batteries. alled known as qPowerStack, this battery is lighter, smaller, and more powerful. Designed with stacked pouch battery cells instead of cylindrical cells, this battery mimics a stack of smartphone-like cells protected in an armored battery housing. Traditionally, DeWalt 20V batteries use either 18650 or 21700 cells. Wjile the PowerStack battery us...

great little battery!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Battery is noticeably smaller. I feel like it makes for less bulk/weight on the tool. That makes a big difference when you need to hold it up for more than a few seconds. The battery holds a change for a very long time which is great! . Charger provides a full charge in no time! Overall a great product!

Love it.

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] At first look I liked the size, I could just put it in my tool bags for an easy switch on the go. Then I took it to work and used it and almost all of my dewalt tools.except my angle grinder, and deep cut band saw.it definitely had long lasting power with my impact and drill and with the impact I was tightening 3/8 inch no hub coupling but it lasted all day and with the drill I was drilling 3/4 inch holes but it also last all day and I didn’t ...

Lightweight & powerful! It’s my new go to

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Lightweight and powerful don’t usually go together. But this new power stack battery is both lightweight and powerful! It’s my new go to battery. Incredible how lightweight it is. I’ve had the other ones that are smaller but they just don’t last as long or have the power this one does everything

LIGHT WEIGHT AND POWERFUL

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The 20v max starter kit was very impressive to say the least. I was slightly disappointed when I opened package to see this little battery and Dewalt charger. I was expecting a bigger battery like the 5amh 20v for size comparison. At first use I noticed the weight difference between a 5amh 20v vs the new 20v max. This new battery is seriously half the weight of a 5amh. Now onto run time. I did 2 of the same tasks to prove which battery was bett...

Great Battery!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This little power stack is the real deal! Smaller than even my 2 AH batteries these are flush with the grips of your tools. Much lighter and a full charge got me through all day lasting what would normally require a battery swap. Lastly a molded rubber base has been added to the bottom of the battery which is a nice touch, softening when you place it down and grips to prevent slips and slides. Nice touch! Will definitely replace some of my cu...

Wood working with Dewalt’s power stack battery .

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used the power stack battery out on my drill using torque screws while replacing my steps the battery supplied a lot of power and it doesn’t weigh half as my 5 amp battery I can’t wait to try it on my grinder,

My new go to battery pack

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After using this new battery pack for the last 5 days, I have to say It’s my favorite battery pack over my 2.0 4.0 5.0 XR packs. Not because of it’s increase in power but, because it’s lighter and compactness. One new feature it has that I wish all dewalt batteries should have is the rubber overmold. Putting down the tool on concrete standing with an incline keeps the tool in place, not slide down and fall off unlike the my other dewalt batteri...

Best lightweight battery out there

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve used both of the last two styles of batteries, but this new battery is better than the others. I like how it has the rubber on the bottom and it has already saved me from dropping my impact driver off a ladder multiple times. It is as advertised, by that I mean it lasts longer and weighs less than the current model of battery. It provides the same amount of power which it great as well. I have nothing negative to say about this product and...

Great starter for dewalt tools

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After useing this battery for the past few days on my job sites i will say that the run time and power on this battery are great. Great for all dewalt tools, lightweight with great run time. Best if used with a drill or impact

Well suited for short-term lightweight jobs

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Summary: It's a decent battery that does what it's supposed to. It's great on flashlights and tools where you don't set it down with the battery as a base. It's great for short term projects because of it's high current delivery, but lower capacity (1.7Ah) restricts it to the kind of project you'd use the normal DCB203 (2Ah) for. If it delivers on it's promise of 2x lifespan (charge cycles) then it is worth the purchase for those tools you go t...

Genuinely Impressed

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Power Stack battery lasted and lasted and lasted! A SIGNIFICANT improvement in performance. I do woodworking and furniture building so I truly appreciate not having to switch batteries all the time. All my Dewalt cordless tools ran longer using Power Stack. It was like getting the runtime of an 8ah battery from a 2ah. Amazing!

The Beast

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the best battery I have ever seen. Received it 2 days before a peer outage. It charges my phones and flash light. Then work 3 10 hour days before I had to charge it again. I will start to switch over to these. They are definitely worth it.
