DEWALT 20V MAX Drill and Impact Driver Combo Kit (DCK240C2)
Product Information, Not A Review
Quick Specs
What Stands Out
What To Check
The DCK240C2 is DEWALT's two-tool starter kit: a 1/2 in. drill/driver, a compact 1/4 in. impact driver, two 20V MAX batteries, a charger and a bag to keep it all together. It is the number one seller in Amazon's Power Tool Combo Kits category, and it is the kit a lot of garages start with.
The pairing is the point. The drill makes the hole, the impact driver sinks the screw or lag bolt, and nobody swaps bits back and forth in the middle of hanging a shelf.
The Numbers That Matter
Two speeds, 0-450 and 0-1,500 RPM. Low speed is for driving screws and boring bigger holes, high speed is for small holes in wood and metal. The 1/2 in. chuck takes the full range of common drill bits.
5.55 in. and 2.8 lbs. That is the impact driver, and it is the size that gets into a cabinet corner or up under a truck bed. The LED ring stays on 20 seconds after you let off the trigger.
Two 1.3Ah batteries. Compact packs keep both tools light. Two of them means one can sit on the charger while the other works.
| Spec | What it decides |
|---|---|
| Drill plus impact driver | Drill and drive without swapping bits |
| 0-450 / 0-1,500 RPM | Driving control versus drilling speed |
| 5.55 in. impact driver | Whether it fits in tight spots |
| (2) 1.3Ah batteries | Light tools, shorter runs per battery |
| 3 year limited warranty | How long DEWALT stands behind it |
Who It Is For
The dad whose weekend list includes a TV mount, a garage shelf and a loose bolt on the swing set. Pair the impact driver with the DEWALT FlexTorq 40-piece bit set so the bits hold up to impact. The same batteries run the DEWALT DCL050 work light, and the Franklin Sensors ProSensor M150 finds the stud before the first hole. For keeping screws in reach while you work, the RAK magnetic wristband is a small add-on.

The Short Version
The DCK240C2 is the starter kit that covers most of what happens in a dad's garage: shelving anchors, lag bolts on a smoker stand, hardware on a squat rack, a swing set that needs tightening. It also starts a battery platform that other DEWALT tools and lights can share. If you already know you will run it all day, look at a brushless kit or plan on bigger batteries.
