Is the DCD799 family compact enough for tighter spaces?

Yes. Amazon reviewers repeatedly describe the DCD799 as compact, easy to maneuver, and powerful enough for everyday drilling and lighter masonry work where a larger drill would feel bulky.

Will these variants work with DEWALT 20V MAX batteries?
