DeWalt DCH966 54v XR FlexVolt Cordless Brushless Demolition Hammer Breaker
The DeWalt DCH966 54v XR FlexVolt Cordless Brushless Demolition Hammer Breaker is a high-performance tool engineered for intensive demolition and breaking applications on construction sites. Powered by DeWalt's innovative FlexVolt battery technology, this cordless breaker combines the runtime and power output of a corded tool with the freedom and flexibility of battery operation, making it ideal for tradespeople working in locations without mains power access.
At the heart of the DCH966 lies a robust brushless motor that delivers class-leading impact energy of 41 joules, providing exceptional breaking power through concrete, brick, and masonry. The brushless motor design offers enhanced runtime, superior durability, and requires minimal maintenance compared to traditional brushed motors, reducing downtime and operational costs for contractors and groundworkers.
Operator comfort has been prioritised throughout the design, with a fully encased floating mechanism that reduces vibration levels to just 6.1m/s², significantly minimising hand-arm fatigue during extended use. The ergonomic design ensures excellent balance and control, whilst the smaller, less intrusive 28mm hex tool holder improves chisel visibility and reduces overall weight. Removeable side handles provide versatility for trench work, and compatibility with the DWH052 dust extraction adapter enables cleaner, safer operation on sites requiring dust control.

• Brushless motor offers increased runtime and durability with reduced maintenance requirements

Battery AH Explained
The best way to describe battery amp hour is that this is effectively the size of your fuel tank, the more amp hours your battery has then the longer the battery will last between charges. More amp hours does not increase the power of a given tool.
Battery Voltage Explained
A tool with a higher voltage than another is a bit like choosing an engine in a car, the higher voltage will generally mean higher power & performance. As with cars though a bigger engine does not always translate to better performance so it is important to compare the specifications of tools at different voltages between different manufacturers.
DeWalt Flexvolt
DeWalt 54v Flexvolt is the new DeWalt dual voltage system. A 54v Tool can only use 54v batteries, however your new DeWalt 54v Flexvolt battery is fully compatible with all DeWalt 18v Li-ion Power Tools as it is capable of stepping into 18v mode for this purpose.
So upgrading to 54v means you can still make use of your 18v power tool range. 54v batteries are currently available in:
6ah (18v mode) / 2ah (54v mode)
9ah (18v mode) / 3ah (54v mode)
12ah (18v mode) / 4ah (54v mode)
The DeWalt Flexvolt system opens the door to types of tool becoming available in cordless that would never have been considered before such as Table Saws.
