DeWalt PowerShift Backpack Vibrator DCPS310
The first of two concrete vibrator tools, DeWalt’s backpack vibrator has a working weight of 25 pounds, including the DeWalt PowerShift battery. A roll cage protects the tool, while a hi-vis harness design keeps the operator more visible.

DeWalt PowerShift Powerpack Vibrator DCPS320
Designed to sit on the ground or have a second person carry the Powerpack, this vibrator takes the majority of the weight off the operator. When you’re using it solo, DeWalt Tool Connect gives you the option to activate the unit remotely. There’s also a shoulder strap to make transportation easier.

DeWalt PowerShift Power Screed DCPS330

DeWalt PowerShift Core Drill DCD150 and Stand DCPS151
Part of DeWalt’s Perform & Protect lineup, the core drill includes bind-up protection to prevent over-rotation and reduce the risk of injury. The overall size of the tool and stand lends itself to close wall or ceiling applications. Pair it with DeWalt’s 20V Max water supply to avoid having to find a hose bib and dragging long hoses around.

DEWALT 12V/20VMax XR High Precision 3 X 360° Line Laser DCLE34033
DeWalt took the basic design of its previous 3 x 360 laser and boosted the accuracy by 40%. The same features we enjoyed on that model are still present, such as the 12V Max/20V Max multiple voltage capability and fine adjustment knob. The big change for the DCLE34033 is that it’s now rated to ±1/8-inch at 50 feet. The previous model was ±1/8-inch at 30 feet.
Price: $699.99 with the laser, laser detector, laser detector bracket, 20V Max 2.0Ah battery, charger, ceiling bracket, and target card
DeWalt 60V Max Premium Low Noise Leaf Blower DCBL777
DeWalt made a couple of big upgrades to its flagship 60V Max blower. On the performance side, you get an outstanding 780 CFM and 157 MPH for blower force. The design team also turned to the noise-reducing qualities of foam to bring the rated noise level to less than 63 decibels in all three operating modes. Both areas were points of concern with the DCBL772, and it looks like DeWalt is vaulting into the conversation concerning the best cordless leaf blowers.
Price: $269 bare, $399 kit with a battery and charger
