I'm sorry but Dewalt transmissions are quite powerless actually. The power is being applied by the motor through the transmission. If anything, the transmission actually decreases the output power of the system to do inefficiencies.

So, a dechip will have the same power as an andymark with 1 cim. More power comes from more motors (like this) not different transmissions.
