DeWalt Cordless Cable Stapler | Tool Lab | This Old House

From the creator

This Old House electrician Heath Eastman takes a close look at the pros and cons of a unique, one-of-a-kind tool aimed at making electrician’s work easier. SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse. The DeWalt Cordless Cable Stapler is designed for electrical contractors and anyone who runs significant amounts of electrical cable. Electrical codes require that wires be secured to framing structure. This usually means hand-stapling hundreds or thousands of staples. Nothing comes close to delivering the power and consistency to streamline the wire-stapling process like this stapler. The stapler runs on DeWalt’s 20V Max battery platform and comes kitted with a 2 Ah battery, case, and charger ($249) and is available as a tool-only if you’re already vested in the platform ($199). The stapler utilizes the latest in cordless tool technology: brushless motor and lithium ion battery. The two combined make for a powerful gun that does what it’s designed to do (in most cases). I asked DeWalt to send the stapler to us to test out. I’ll be passing my sample along as a donation to our friends at YouthBuild [youthbuild.org]—not because I don’t like it, but because I have no use for it on a daily basis. Our electrician Heath Eastman got a sample to test out as well. Heath put the stapler to the test throughout his jobsites along with his crew.
