Aside from the voltage difference is there really a big difference in tool quality between the DCK655X and the premium set (DCL592L2)?

Hello Michael, I don't familiar with DCL592L2 tools quality, but pay attention one tool (4-1/2" Cut-Off Tool) is missing from this set. Anyhow, I am vey satisfied with my tools set quality.

Dewalt has 2 battery types for some of their 20volt Max system tools and label the differences with the letters C, L, D and M for the sets. The tool alone has a B designation. The regular Lithium Ion batteries are labeled C (1.5Ah) and L (3.0Ah). The XR batteries (33% more capacity) are D (2.0Ah) and L (4.0Ah). I own the DCF895C2 set and it is an outstanding tool. Also you need to consider the weight of the battery. The 1.5Ah and 2.0Ah weight 0.8 pound. The 3.0Ah and 4.0Ah weight about 1.4 pounds each. Take into consideration the fatigue factor with the heavier batteries. Dewalt now has a 5.0Ah battery at the same weight as the 3.0 and 4.0. You have a lot to consider with the 20 volt tool system. I am happy with each one I won.

The difference is the extra tools included. I've used all of them and am glad to have the right tool for the job.

They are the same compressor under a few different names for some odd reason. Get whichever one is cheaper

I found only a price difference. This tool was priceless!!! I used mine for my entire house, my friend used it for two rooms and my neighbor is using it now for his house and cant say enough good things about it. Money well spent!! I hope this helps.

Both kits include the DCF886 1/4" impact, but the DCK281D2 includes the DCD790 1/2" drill/driver, and the DCK286D2 includes the DCD795 1/2 hammer drill. The latter is especially good for masonry drilling. Both sets are of the "compact" variety, but the DCD790 is a bit shorter which you could find useful in tight spots. DeWalt also sell heavier duty models which are heavier (heh, heh) and have bigger batteries for longer lasting charges. For the typical weekend warier the compact models are probably perfectly adequate. Beware DeWalt also still sells models which are NOT brushless. They're cheaper, but I'd definitely go for the brushless models.

It doesn't look like there is any difference. I'd save the money and go with the less expensive ones.

Its a different brand...although same manufacturer, its different. Also we base our price off Dewalt's price for us so their's were probably higher for this kit as well.

No, the battery is $99 additional. If you get into this tool systom, you'll get used to the expensive batteries. The tools' performance is worth it.

You know, it is not the simplest answer. The DC17 has more flexibility and power (easier to turn, etc). Not sure if it has more attachments. My DC 14 came with the same attachments my Mom's DC15 came with.

The battery size is the only difference as far as I know.I have heard that the drill isn't producing the full torque it's capable of when using the smaller batteries; not sure how true it is. For household projects, you'd be fine with the standard white set that's currently amazon's deal of the day. I'd only grab the LXT version if you're dead set against the color white, and will be running it all day every day. I have the white drill and love it.

As far as the individual hammer drill and drill driver there is no differance. The only differant is the case the DCKTS 290 (TS- Tough System Kit Box constructred from 4mm structural foam with removable custom fit tool tray, accessory storage, steel latches and water-tight seal.

No difference. As far as I can tell. Just a new part number, many Makita tools have had a number change in the last two years.

I can't tell you what the differences are as I am not acquainted with those models. However I love the one I have. It has plenty of power and is very user friendly. Switches easily for different cleaning needs. I have no regrets with this vacuum.

The DCS380M1 comes with the new 20v Max 4.0 ah battery versus the 3.0 ah for the DCS380L1. The tool is the same. The "upgrade" is in the new extended life battery.

The former are the smaller size and will only work with items that require less power such as the flash light and driver. The latter are the bigger, standard size and can power BOTH light-duty AND heavy-duty tools. There is a physical barrier on the heavy-duty tools such as the circular saw and sawz-all which prevent the BL1815 from being inserted because it would under-power the tool. (still a good buy in my opinion; I keep 2 of each battery in my tool bag so I always have one charged no matter what tool I'm using)
