Discuss Dewalt Cable Stapler... DCN701 in the Electrical Tools and Products area at ElectriciansForums.net

Honest opinion is that it has it's limitations.

Nowhere near as neat as hand clipping.

One clip size only, will do single T&E's up to 6mm.

Will do 2* 1mm T&E's side by side 1 clip with a bit of care.

Can clip smaller cables closer together by moving the previous cable with the gun.

If cable restraint is required then you can mange it by keeping the gun completely parallel with the joist and exerting force on the head of the gun or tapping the staple with a hammer.

I am honestly happy with it and am glad I coughed up for it. :)
