DeWalt DCE040 Tool Connect 20V MAX Bluetooth Tracking Connector

The DeWalt DCE040 Tool Connect 20V MAX Bluetooth Tracking Connector is an IP68-rated wireless inventory management adapter engineered to add asset tracking and anti-theft lockout to existing 20V MAX cordless power tools. Mounting permanently between the tool foot and battery, this 4.1-ounce connector communicates via Bluetooth over a 100-foot line-of-sight range to stream last-seen geolocation data to the DEWALT Inventory Manager web portal. Powered by an internal coin cell battery with a 3-year service life that recharges automatically upon inserting a 20V MAX lithium-ion battery pack, this compact hardware adapter solves equipment loss, tool hoarding, and jobsite theft challenges across commercial contracting fleets.

Best Used For:

  • Commercial Construction Fleet Management: Assigning, tracking, and auditing tool inventories across multiple active jobsites using the mobile app and web portal.
  • Jobsite Theft Prevention & Asset Security: Enabling out-of-range automatic tool lockout to disable power tools when moved beyond authorized jobsite boundaries.
  • Misplaced Equipment Recovery: Locating missing or misplaced tools quickly within a 100-foot radius using street-address last-seen GPS logging.

Key Performance & Safety Features

  • Universal 20V MAX Tool Foot Adapter: Converts standard non-connected DEWALT 20V MAX power tools into smart tracked assets without increasing tool body profile.
  • 100-Foot Bluetooth Wireless Range: Long-range signal broadcasts tool location updates to any mobile device running the Tool Connect app within 100 feet.
  • IP68 Dust & Water Ingress Protection: Completely sealed weather-resistant casing withstands heavy jobsite dust, mud immersion, and driving rain.
  • Out-of-Range Anti-Theft Lockout: Remote tool disablement function automatically cuts off battery power transmission if the tool leaves authorized jobsite zones.
  • Auto-Recharging Internal Coin Cell: Internal rechargeable battery boasts a 3-year standby lifespan and recharges whenever a main 20V MAX battery is attached.
  • Visual Blue LED Pairing Indicator: Integrated blue LED light flashes to confirm active Bluetooth pairing and diagnostic connectivity checks.
