  1. New XR recip saw

    The new range of DEWALT 20V MAX XR tools with POWERDETECT tool technology maximize performance when used with high-capacity XR batteries.  Using the 20V MAX 8Ah battery, the DCS368 Reciprocating Saw will output up to 44% more power and get 60% more runtime than the standard XR Reciprocating Saw DCS367P1.

    • POWER DETECT™ Tool Technology detects high-capacity batteries to maximize tool output
    • 1-1/8-in stroke length delivers a fast cutting speed
    • Keyless lever-action blade clamp for quick and easy blade changes
    • Varible speed trigger with 0-3000 SPM provides blade control and fast cutting speeds
    • Bright LED light for increased visibility in low light work areas
    • 20V MAX; Maximum initial battery voltage (measured without a workload)

  2. I believe the 2ah battery uses Samsung 20r cells but not sure what cells the 3ah is using... Would the 3ah provide some extra power over the 2ah? I'm guessing the 3ah might be using 30q cells which have 15ah continuous where as the 20s is like 22ah continuous

    The 6.0 xr has the higher output cells versus the flex volt 2.0/ 6.0 running the older 18650s

    You will get more performance and runtime on the xr 6.0 because of those cells compared to a flex battery. If you go into the 3/9 FV they have HO cells in it. You won’t notice those too much in lower demand tools but in an angle grinder you’ll be able to push a little harder.

    Hoping it gives that extra juice on impacts, drills etc Grinder will be in the future for sure 

  4. Looking at picking up a new 6.0 and was wondering what kind of difference there is between the 6 and the 5 power wise in high draw tools....Anyone ever notice much difference? Looking to see if I'd notice on the impacts like the mid torque, high torque and maybe the 996 etc... Are they worth the money?

    There's some concern on the verbiage about the drill/driver's capacity for a "half inch spade bit," and I'm really hoping it's a mistake instead of saying it can chuck a half inch bit. If the EU nm specs I saw posted somewhere, were remotely accurate, then these 12v XRs are more capable than the current gen 2 fuel m12s. To boot, the marketing imagery for the drill shows it using a spade much larger than a half inch.

    Probably something like that for legal purposes etc I'm not worried

  6. I know the 5ah could supply more runtime but with the new high end 21700 cells in the 3ah compact, do you think it could supply the same type of performance in the bigger tools like the impacts? Could it supply more amps compared to the the 5ah?

  7. Ooh and as far as the felling dogs (spikes) go... Come in handy on the bigger saws, but these smaller saws you don't really need them IMO... 

    Milwaukee I think added them in to make the saw look tough more then anything like it's going to do serious cutting back in the woods with the big boys haha

  8. My dad recently picked up a flexvolt chainsaw, it's a been a great saw so far... The worries about the plastic chain tensioner are totally overblown, Ave on YouTube has everyone scared like it's going to come apart and the whole saw is useless..

    He has already cut over a cord of wood for heat in the garage over the winter on some smaller trees with his and no issues. Adjusts fine and very easily which honestly was a big selling point and it doesn't really feel cheap in the slightest. The amount of times you will actually use the saw and effectively need to adjust the chain, it doesn't even matter.

    Would I use it as my standalone chainsaw in the woods to cut my 5 cords of winters wood for the house, Probably not... We got a 450 Rancher for the big stuff.

    Its a great saw with a ton of power to do many a jobs around the house, take with you to the camp, on the ATV whatever you need to do. Its not going to replace your big pro saws but it's great at what it's meant for... It made a believer out of me for sure. I wouldn't hesitate to buy one, but dad has one so I don't need too haha

  9. If the drill will get to the point of smoking before the OP kicks in it is a FAIL on Dewalt's part.

    I don't care what 07Sierra tells you :lol:

     

    Puffffttt, rather my drill try to be able to do the job then a drill then has a hard time to pass through a 2x6 without looking to shut it self off because the manufacturer used the cheapest motor on the market and can't handle any work 

  10. Still working on the review for this drill. I know the 20v max platform is supposed to have overload protection, do all dewalt 20v tools have it or just some?

    I'm running several tests on this drill and managed to make it smoke under a high torque application. I doubt the drill is defective though as it works great for all applications it's meant for Even after it smoked

    I'm not trying to bash the drill or the brand just sharing real world experience and when the motor should have cut off, it just kept on trying and started to smoke. The application was driving a 2" lag screw into a 2x4 without a pilot hole on speed 2. Now I know this should be better done on speed 1 which it can do it successfully on speed 1 I just wanted to see if it could sink the lag in speed 2. On speed 2 it could only sink the lag screw halfway and that's when it started to smoke. I'm surprised the electronics didn't kick in and shut the tool off.

    I wonder if overload protection was canned in order to cut costs?

     

    Dewalt's overload protection is not as invasive as some other brands and will really take the tool to the limit before it will look to shut off but maybe this kit has none
