We need more BOLTR. It was your bread and butter, what built the channel. Always entertaining and informative.

I’ve had this impact since it came out and I ABSOLUTELY LOVENIT. The #1 setting is for pre drilled holes and cabinetry. It automatically detects the millisecond that the fastener bottoms out flush and stops immediately. Then if you keep holding the trigger it will give you single/individual impacts slowly if you want to snug down another 1/8-1/4 turn. It’s genius and a pleasure to work with. Hands down the best impact for the money right now.

What's best? Bears or BOLTRs? Answer: BOLTRs; bears would get a thorough tear down.

You're using #1 wrong... Keep holding the trigger after it stalls. It will go into a higher torque/slow hammer mode. Super useful for not blowing out fasteners on sheet metal, setting screws to a consistent depth and most tasks that would normally prefer finishing with a hand driver. Had mine for over a year and still haven't figured out a use for speed 3 yet...

Mr. WoodGears Matthias was speculating that those batteries should not be drained all the way down if they have been sitting around less than fully charged. If they are a little out of balance, the lowest cell can get discharged past critical mass and be damaged. He suggests charging them fully if you plan on draining them fully, so that the charger has a chance to top off and balance the cells.

I LOVE my stubby dewalt. Clearly better than the older units. Number 3 perfect for bolts/nuts, number 1 perfect for shisty Phillips, number 2 perfect for general use. Glad to see this BOLTR

I have the stubby compact 1/2" impact wrench which looks pretty identical and it's a beast. I'm a mechanic for a water company in the UK so it's standing up well to quite a harsh environment so far

I'm on my second one of these. I use it pretty regularly as a general contractor. I think they are awesome, but they seem to fail slightly faster than the larger counterparts. That said I'm not going back to the larger drivers. This little one packs the same punch or better while being able to fit more places. Its a win for sure. The only 60v battery I've ever had fail was submerged in water for a few days. I've been using 60v for 4-5 years now.

I noticed you have to use a ton of touch on how hard and fast you run it. I’m a year into my first one and it’s good but has choked a few times, and a buddy has the exact same experience. Milwaukee has a compact impact that is hands down better, and Makita has one that’s even better than that.

Ya I'm a contractor that builds outdoor structures like gazebos and such and I've broken one already. It only lasted about 3 months and I think the drive axle snaped when I was driving a big lag. I got a second one and it's also doing some weird things. It's like slipping out of speed 3 occasionally. I'm kinda disappointed because I'm a big Dewalt platform guy and my 4 old 885 impacts worked amazing and were so durable over like 8 years. But every impact I've had since including two 887s one 840 and now two 850s have all had issues. My 887s and my 840 have collet issues where my 2" bits get stuck in them. I do use Makits Impact XPS bits so maybe that has something to do with it but if that's the case that kinda sucks that I have to use all Dewalt bits. Can't beat the XPS magnet that works with their bits. Or you could but Makita doesn't make the best original Mag Boost bit magnet anymore.

Batteries last longer than some relationships, it makes cool spaceship noises, and Smol-n-torquey fer getting into those spots baby dearest would never go. That said, a couple extendo-options bits come in pretty handy for adulting some fasteners that are a couple two-tree inches away, if ur picking what sellin. Highly recommend for anyone that doesn't like to F around. The 850 will dab-n-do-ya, as well and give er big ol gobs. Thanks for doin a BOLTR on the 850, Uncle B!

“A mistake you’ll only make once.” I’ve been proving you wrong for years.

This is on my list of future tools to replace my XR impact that the handle is glued together. Dewalt has a lot to of issues but I’ve dropped my impact from well over 10 ft more times then I care to admit but it still chooches all day.

Dewalt saw the last couple BOLTR vids and took Uncle Bumblefuck and his large audience to heart

Got this as soon as it came out. It took a spill off a 2 story roof straight onto concrete. Took some scratches but still going strong. My favorite impact for sure.

Sir I love your videos you crack me up

I think if you read the manual... You will find that if you use number 1 and screw until it stalls, then keep the trigger pressed for a second or two, it will start to drive to fill the gap between 1 and 2.
