My typing speed just makes it easy to say a lot of words, in a short amount of time. Seems like I’m angry or hyperactive, but I just type fast. I’m counting past models as still being actively sold, not just new ones, and not just the current quarter, year, or sales cycle. No no… I intentionally exaggerated actually… I’m calm, it’s just… I’m confused. A smaller and lighter Bluetooth radio sounds good to me, and I can live without the built-in charging feature, something I never use except in product testing. Personally, I felt that the DCR025 was huge. I wouldn’t think the sound quality could change much between models, but you never know. Sound-wise, the DCR025 is described as having 20W per channel woofers, tweeters, and air ports, but I can’t tell you how this compares to the DCR028’s 3.5″ woofers and 1″ tweeters. Additionally, the DCR025 had 2 AC outlets, but it doesn’t look like this feature made it into the DCR028. It doesn’t look like the new model has a bottle opener, a feature the DCR025 had on its left side.Ĭompared to the DCR025 the new Dewalt DCR028 Bluetooth radio has smaller footprint, is lighter, costs less, is compatible with 12V and 20V Max batteries, and does not have a built-in charger. Update: I missed it – the press sheet does confirm that each of the new products (this radio and a new LED light) are compatible with FlexVolt batteries. It’s worth noting that it looks like the newest higher capacity and wider Dewalt 20V Max batteries should be able to fit without issue as well. There’s no specific mention as to whether the new radio will also be compatible with FlexVolt batteries, but seeing as how the battery connection is open and at the rear of the radio, I see no reason why it wouldn’t be. The new radio can be powered by 12V Max, 20V Max, or FlexVolt batteries, and also comes with an AC power cord. Antenna slot in the top handle for safe storage.Works with Dewalt 12V or 20V Max batteries.Not only is the new Dewalt DCR028 radio smaller, its 45% lighter too (without battery). The absence of the charger is at least partially responsible for the smaller size of the new Dewalt Bluetooth music player, and it also costs less too. There’s no indication that this model is replacing any other Dewalt jobsite radios, and so you can still buy their Bleutooth charger radio if that’s what you want. This is a new Bluetooth radio, but it’s not a charger. No complaints so far.Ah, but there is a catch. Found youtube by The Shack breaking down the DWS780’s features and examples for measuring and adjusting calibration to be helpful. Big heavy tool and my current space limitations mean I need to bring the saw out and put back to store each time I use it so the rolling stand and battery power have been very convenient. The various locks have been tight and held true. Shadow cut guide has worked as advertised. Used it a bit on battery and corded and didn’t feel a difference (but I’m not cutting anything close to 200+ boards at a time either). The two bevel stops and 45 override clip (to go beyond 45 degree bevel) on each side work well. On the cusp of a larger scale upstairs remodel but have only done small jobs w/ it so far. This is more tool than I’m likely to need (glorified DIYer – not much need to cut 16″ lumber) but was on sale for 699 and it got me excited.
