Why it matters
The DCE050B runs on DEWALT 20V MAX batteries and primes itself. DEWALT rates it at up to 10 GPM, 25 ft of lift and about 4.5 GPM at 45 ft of head with tap water.
It can move a 60/40 water and propylene glycol mix for HVAC work, and DEWALT says it transfers up to 300 gallons of tap water per charge. It's sold as a bare tool.
