DT70619T Impact Rated Right Angle Drill Attachment & 8 Bits

Bought this to use with my DeWalt impact driver. First impressions were good, after opening the bubble pack I was very impressed with the quality and feel of the tool. I have only used it for about a dozen inaccessible screws so far, but it performed brilliantly. Would definitely recommend.

Groundhog day has just arrived, again the item sent was not the model shown (but different seller).The item number on the package is DT70619T-QZ, but whats inside is not as pictured in ad (or on Dewalt UK site).The item advertised, looks like the Dewalt DT70619T-QZ (on Dewalt UK site) and DWRA100 (on dewalt.com advertised as '5x longer life', and gets good online video reviews).What came (pictured) appears the same as DT71517T (on Dewalt UK site) and dwra60 (on dewalt.com advertised as '2x longer life'). Apparently an inferior model which wouldn’t work with majority of the 25mm PZ bits I already owned, including the Dewalt ones!Item supplied :On this model the body handle is attached using 2 radial screws.The magnet height is fixed, which can stop bits fully engaging into the screw head recess. The resulting poor grip causes slipping on tight PZ and PH screws.I'd previously ordered the adaptor from another Amazon seller and received what seems exactly the same (DT71517T) WRONG thing, with fixed magnet.But that had DT71517T stamped on front and back of package, while this one has DT70619T.No identification number on tools. Both tools look identical and packages identical apart from model number.What's up Dewalt? Looks like they dont want to let UK buyers have the working model.I didn't open the package, but expect measurements would be similar to these from the apparently identical Dewalt right angle attachment, from the other seller:It seems ‘25mm’ long bits vary quite a bit in length, and the adaptor only works with bits on the long side of 25mm. I didn’t have any long enough PZ3 bits, so had to add in an extra magnetic bit holder! This is frustrating, and defeats the point of buying a compact; magnetic right angle adaptor.The Dewalt torsion bits supplied in the set were all long, (longest 25.16mm with around 3.5mm projecting from the tool), and were the only ones to make solid contact, but set didn't include PZ3 (which I needed).No bits in my toolbox, from Dewalt; Bosh; Wera diamond, were exactly 25mm, An old set of unused Dewalt PZ2 were the shortest at 24.03mm, with around 2.5mm projecting from the tool (1mm less than needed).Other slight niggle is that the hole, where you push in something to eject the bit, is quite small. M6 screws either didn't fit or were a struggle, annoying when you're up on the roof and haven't brought anything smaller.What I wanted: Dewalt DT70619T-QZ (dwara100 on dewalt.com):On this model the body handle is attached using 4 axial screws.The magnet ring is floating (on black arm visible under adaptor head). This should allow the magnet to firmly hold the screw while allowing movement to properly engage the bit.Maybe I’ll go for a Milwaukee 4932471274 (bits stick out further, though doesn't have strong magnet screw grip).

good

Best one I've used so far

This is excellent

Excellent tool

Wrong model advertised DT706192-QZ but received DT706192. The model received hasn’t go the release trigger. But the one advised has.

Pleased when arrived to find it a lot smaller than the photos suggest, so would be good for use in tight space.Then, looking it various markings on the device, no idea what they mean. No instructions on packaging. Spent ages online looking for a user manual only to find the official DeWalt site does not even recognise the existence of the item!!!So, will use as best as can with no idea of things like, “what IS that funny plastic collar for ?” (Even the chap on YouTube doing a strip down report couldn’t make it out!)Very poor effort from such a large company as DeWalt
