Got this on in on Monday. Fuck that has a lot of torque .

They are for different purposes really. Do u need to cut firewood or down a smaller tree now and then ? Then get the X2. Just for trimming ? ( Is that the correct word ? ) Then the 18v brushless ( which is amazeballs ) Both are great tools on their own

They only need 5 mm more really I think ? 21700 cells are only 5 mm wider then the current 18650. Bosch's procore are a fine example. Only 5 mm bigger then the ' older' batteries I've just measured the duc254. Single battery brushless chainsaw. There is a 3 mm gap next to the battery between it and the housing. If 5 mm more is all Makita needs ( 2.5 mm to each side ) then a 21700 celled battery would fit the chainsaw

That info has been on the official Bosch press release website for a few months tho 😃

It's indeed 5 mm extra. What you would need for 21700 cells. On the latest circular saw I find it strange indeed well have to wait and see

Agreed on the grinder. And obviously noone was talking about that age old top handle X2. We're talking about the brushless X2 chainsaw

Yes only aws

True. But that doesn't prove that bigger batteries are needed. An updated rotary is needed

Dhr264 is just a waaaay too old inefficient 2 pole motor from 9 years old or so

The X2 chainsaw does have room for larger batteries and there is a newer version of the grinders coming . That's why the old one is so cheap

Everything could. Don't find it a necessity for rotary hammers. The runtime on rotaries is ok imo

Not much but the large grinders and chainsaws are the tools at the moment that overheat Makita batteries. They could use bigger battery packs for runtime prefably with 21700 cells so they won't overheat so quickly. On other tools I wouldn't see the need for bigger heavier packs. A convenience perhaps in some situations but not needed

Yup she is fine addition for the Bosch guys

Ow yeah. As a grinder you can't hold it. Didn't even think of that

Spec wise the midi and CT 36/48 have exactly thesame specs/power/motor ?

If the blade isn't parralel anymore then it will struggle yes. Your should check the black metal bar at the back where you set the depth with. With the depth marking on . If you drop that saw that metal bar is the first thing that will bend. And then your saw isn't parralel to your base anymore

Yeah I looked it up on the internet looks Abit like the Lidl Parkside tracksaws we have over here

There is the flexvolt cut off saw tho. Basically a different shaped 9 inch grinder

They have tho. In Belgium we got the ls1019 ( that had the problems at initial launch ) half a year after it got available in America. Not a single problem from any of my customers since then. The cordless version followed real close here. No problems neither. Since yesterday we finally have the 12 inch version LS1219. Sold 2 but since only a day old that's too soon to have an idea. The display model I put out is accurate tho

Just a normal discussion with arguments and no bullshit isnt possible on this forum anymore right ?

So which of these kapex features do you think is still unique ? Not sure what you mean with the twist adjustments. It is also lacking in motor power, lacking in cut capacity, only 60 ° to 1 side ( meaning you'll have to be carrying around your wood to the other side of the saw for those ( atleast in Belgium) common 30° cuts used in roofs ). No detent override, rather smaller table and thus lesser workpiece support. Even Festool reps aknowledge that a few of the newer features in the smaller saw should be updated to the 120

Only a 6 inch tho. That's a big difference from what he needs

Don't overblow it. First batches a year ago had a chance to need some recalibrationg. Those same professional Al trim guys you mentioned have been using them for a year now to grezt success. Rob robbilards crew, kruger from instagram. The first batches of flexvolt batteries also had many that died remember ? The cordless version dls110/dls110 that has come later was perfect and so is the 1219. Out of the box you have Hitachi/deWalt precision. Want a kapex ? Take a square and half hour of your time. And you'll have a better mitre saw then a kapex which is a rather old mitre saw by no lacking functions

No issues that can't be solved with half hour of your time to tune it up. Except for the kapex you should really do that with every mitre saw
