Power and Performance
The DC618K's engine design allows the tool to work as fast as you do with consistent nail penetration into both soft and hard joints. The 20-degree angled magazine (with up to 120-nail capacity) will accept DEWALT and Paslode 20-degree nails, and it has a rear-load magazine. You'll have easy access to the nosepiece for the removal of jammed nails without the use of screwdrivers or tool wrenches, and the contact trip lock-off allows trigger to be disabled when not in use.
Comfort and Convenience
You can select sequential operating mode to ensure precision placement of each nail or a bump operating mode that allows you to harness top speed. A 6 position dial enables you to move between applications without having to re-acquire exact depth setting. And at just 8.5 pounds, this tool is lightweight for easy maneuvering and reduced operator fatigue. This nailer also includes integrated LED lights for perfect placement in low-lit or shadowy areas.
DEWALT's XRP Extended-Life Battery System
A tool's only useful if it runs long enough to get the job done, and the DEWALT XRP extended run time batteries keep the DC618K running at full tilt. They provide up to 40 percent more run time than standard Ni-Cad batteries, and any XRP battery can be used with any 18-volt DEWALT tool, which allows you to expand your system by adding other DEWALT cordless tools (sold separately) as the demands of your job grow.
The DC618K comes with one 18-volt XRP battery and a 1-hour charger.
Warranty
This DEWALT tool is backed by three-year limited warranty covering any defects due to faulty materials or workmanship (from the date of purchase). It's also covered by DEWALT's two-year free service contract, where DEWALT will maintain the tool and replace worn parts caused by normal use--for free.

DeWalt Scores First Time Out!
No, I am NOT a pro finish guy--former pro-painter guy. I have remodeled about half my house so far, so I would most likely just be a DIY guy. HOWEVER, my experience with interior painting on high-end, high-production tract home projects has made me expert in making the finished product look great no matter what (even though the popular phrase around the jobsite was "the painters will fix it").
Just picked the nailer up August 31st from H.D...
First impressions: This thing is freakin' heavy! I compared it to my Senco FramePro 702XP framing nailer (with 1 stick of 3 1/2 nails in it) and they weigh the same (about 8 pounds). My neighbor has a Senco AirFree cordless nailer, it feels like a toy in comparison to the DeWalt.
Pro's:
* Cordless! Don't have to drag out the air compressor.
* Cool headlights. Good for doing trim in darker areas.
* Shoots 16 gauge angled stick nails (Paslode nails were all I could find to...

it works good!
Just bought this tool in sept. and used it to frame several door jambs and casing. it works good. a little heavy, but a lot lighter than a compressor, hose etc. if you buy the angle gun the price of the nails are about 50% more than if you buy the other dewalt straight nailer. because at hd you can buy paslode nails for this angle gun or with the straight gun you can buy senco or porter cable nails. however the angle nailer is better for reaching into corners. As with most dewalt tools you have to use them for 15-30 days to make sure they do not fall apart or break down. but so far I recommend this gun. GUN UPDATE:>12-1-04: IT WORKS GREAT!. have done several jobs no compressors or hoses, entire house molding, casing and the gun works great. no hassels with hoses and watching out so nothing gets knocked over. I have used this gun now for 90 days and have had great success. good job dewalt.
Good tool and It makes a lot of sense if you own 18V tools now
This tool is solid and works as advertised. So it weighs 8.5 lbs... if you are going to be nailing over your head for hours straight then break out the air hose. I did the same when using my Paslode.
This tool replaced my Paslode Impulse Finish nailer. I've not looked back. Ample power and drives nails well with very predictable depth control.
Get the angled nailer, easier to place and nail in tighter spots. With the size of the gun, you'll need it.
If you are looking for the possible negatives...
Somewhat costly to purchase
It is heavy, but the tool compensates me for this with performance and convenience
I miss being able to sit the tool down on the front face like the Paslode. The Dewalt rolls over sideways if you try. This makes it difficult to set it down and retrieve from the floor or a ladder shelf. I glued rubber feet to the front, problem solved.
If doing production, long nails, hard wood... keep...
