What is the decibel level for the saw running alone with the blade that comes with?

I don't have a decibel meter, but its loud. Like yelling to talk loud. still an awesome saw

In an enclosed area (garage), the Dewalt's noise level is about 106dB at three feet with no load as tested with my SPL meter...

It's open design, so the motor is right in front of you. I would say it's above 100 db when it's running. Louder than my Bosch 4100 for sure.

it gets pretty loud, I'd say around 100 decibels. not as loud as my circular saw, but you can hear it from 100 ft away.

Max. cut depth is 1 1\2". Also,the saw is surprisingly quiet for a circular saw! I've been happy with mine so far.

I don't know decibel wise but I don't find it loud at all. There's no clicking or whirring of the motor. What you hear is the breeze blowing.

I can't tell you in decibels, but my experience is that it is typical for a cordless vac. Quieter than a shop vac. Would buy this again in a heartbeat, the only thing I wish it had was a constant "on" switch in addition to the trigger switch.

It is quiet, but you can hear it running. It might be a distraction if used intermittently in a home theater environment. I have no way of measuring actual decibels.

No, not by far. It's not extremely loud, but loud enough. You won't be able to hear much else while cutting.

I'm using both saws on this addition today. They both have the same noise. I have f-18 jets fly over all the time. Noise doesn't bother me far as these saws I have. This is a easy handling saw. I would buy another one but I already have 3 other ones

No. No need to either. This thing runs like a champ! Just follow the starting instructions and you won't have any problems with this saw!

I don't know the exact db's, but it ran in my back yard and I could barely hear it inside the house. You can stand next to it and, to me, I don't think it is anymore than a lawn mower.

I can't speak to the actual db level, however this compressor is extremely quiet. I can run it in my basement and not disturb my wife on the next floor up.

It makes some noise, but I wear ear protection as often as possible. The saw is great.

As I have no decimeter the answer is it is not very loud. You should not have a problem with the noise level.

About the same as most clippers, I think. I use this to cut my own hair, and don't find it particularly loud next to my ear, but it is noisy.

not sure what the db level is but it is very quite I would have to say it is about the same as a circiler saw in noise and if you do not have a shop vac it is a little messy you have to clean it very well as you are planning the boards so it does not get cloged

Hi, since I don't have either a decibel meter or a Makita to compare it too, I can not answer the question very precisely. I found the noise level very tolerable when working out side and did not feel the need for ear protection like I do with my chain saw. I really appreciate the fact it is definately lighter than the Makita and since I was doing a lot of precise notch cutting on posts for a post and beam building. And the Dewalt left hand handle worked much better (fit my hand better for control) than the Makita. Note that I have several Makita tools that I really like.

65 sounds about right. Its a great saw. Would thoroughly recommend it. It is big though
