## Questions & Answers

**Q: What will the 2.25 HP Dewalt router do that this will not? Differences?**
A: Well it depends a lot on what purpose you are using it for. 
The HP claims are pretty much worthless as both will be equal in terms of mid-size routing. 
 
The major flaw the 2.25HP (DW618. I'll refer to it as "618". Whereas this is the DW616... SO, "616") has is it cannot be used in an upside down router table without blowing up bearings in it. THE 616 is fine in a table. 
 
Also, the 616 has a quick start vs 618 which is a slow start. This means the 616 is running full speed at start, while the 618 starts slow and takes a second or two to build up speed. Both have advantages, and disadvantages. 
 
The BIGGEST issue for myself and others is that the 618 motor has... well... fire problems. Lol. That motor does not like extended use and with eat up brushes like mad. The 616 might have a bit less power, but its basically unnoticeable if you are using good sharp bits.  
 
Most importantly... the 616 (the "weaker" of the 2) tends to handle a lengthy runtime without catching fire lol. 
 
Personally, I prefer the 616 when it comes to mid-range routers. It has plenty of power, even with hardwoods, and larger bits. 
 
If you are planning on closing giant bits, or surface planing, I'd recommend neither and point you to a larger plunge base style of router with much greater strength, but a much higher weight.

**Q: can this model be used in router table (no dust protection)**
A: Yes, the spindle detaches from the base and can be mounted in a router table. I am using it with the Kreg Precision Lift.

**Q: Hello good days I need all that weighs this article to be able to square the cost of sending towards venezuela**
A: Hola! El router pesa 10 libras ... eso si, no se si hacen envíos a Venezuela. Debes verificar con Amazon. Saludos desde Puerto Rico!

**Q: Does this dewalt router have a light to allow you to see the work area better while the machine is running?**
A: No it has no light.
