Will the worklight turn on when the trigger is pulled if the light switch is at the off position? the manual says yes, but mine doesn't.

Yes and no ... there are three settings: 1) always on 2) always off and 3) on only when the trigger is pulled (plus ~10s delay turning off when trigger released).

Is this hammer drill compatible with the DCB201 battery?

Thank you for your question. It is compatible with the DCB201 battery. All DeWalt 20 volt Max batteries and chargers are interchangable with all DeWalt 20 volt max tools. We would suggest if you will be doing a longer project, you may want to consider upgrading to a 3 (DCB203) 4 (DCB204) or 5 (DCB205) AH for less charging time in-between work but the 201 has worked great for the small-medium projects I've done. It also charges fairly quickly (about 30-45 minutes in DCB107). Another added benefit of the DCB201 is that it's a lighter weight battery which doesn't add as much weight to the drill. Great question!

what is the power of this drill?

Thank you for your question. Here are some specs regarding the power of the DCD805b. High-speed transmission with variable trigger and 2 speed settings (0-650/0-2,000 rpm). Maximum Speed is 2000 RPM. Max torque is 796 in-lbs. Blows per Minute is34000 BPM. Hope these stats help you make your purchasing decision. Great question!

What type of drill bit will fit this to drill through concrete ?

The DEWALT SDS+ Hammer Bit, Rock Carbide, 1/2-Inch by 16-Inch by 18-Inch (DW5440) would work for this application.

My favorite new tool

My old drill died and I was very sad. I thought it could never be replaced. We had such a good life together. My new drill arrived -This drill/hammer drill is awesome. It's powerful and has great battery life. The led light is movable so you have the perfect light. The chuck is well balanced and is easy to operate. The hammer drill operation worked perfectly. Chuck clutch is easy to adjust.Buy this drill. You won't be disappointed.

Value

I’m a Dewalt guy, I make my living with these tools and they never disappoint. The batteries were always the most expensive item, but I found them on Amazon for much less and they work exactly like they should.

Good hammer drill. Needs a way to attach a side handle

I bought this for a small project that I would need to put in several concrete anchors for a fireplace surround. Regular drills just won't cut the mustard for drilling concrete.The drill, like most Dewalt stuff is well built and feels sturdy in your hand. It drills concrete anchors of up to about 3/8 of an inch with no problem but most decidedly needs a side handle attachment for the torque required for larger holes.Doing some research I found there is no side handle attachment that can be added, either OEM or aftermarket as there is no good place to attach one, even those that have the metal band that tightens down.Overall its a good unit for the average guy who needs that extra power to drill concrete or cc blocks but if you need to drill bigger holes or were going to use it all day for work I' say jump up to the bigger unit with the side handle. It costs a bunch more but would be worth it as a contractor.Battery life seems pretty good with my existing dewalt batteries but I found the 5ah battery had more power and lasted much longer than the standard 2ah battery. I have actually found myself using this in place of my drill driver for most applications as it just has more oomph.
