I did notice some of the prices for the new Dewalt tools are kinda pricey the bare tool mud mixer is more than the Milwaukee.

70,000 BTU? Good grief that is some heat...but if it's propane, what's necessary for the battery exactly?

The battery is for the ignition and blower motor more than likely

Anyone still interested in the Metabo drill or Multimaster please make an offer I really need to get rid of them for cold hard cash sadly
-
I don't know if your from the usa but its probably not economically worth it to get the drill to work on AC power. I would find the cheapest new lion or nicad drill you can find locally

The M18 jig saw is the biggest disappointment for me. I picked one up recently as I wanted a cordless jig saw for convenience. That thing needs a serious updating.
I kept the box, so I may return it.
It's funny they have a nice barrel grip but they never brought it over to the USA. I think Makita did they same thing they have a barrel grip that's brushless but they never brought it to the USA but its sold in canada.

Hrmm, surprised they were able to change the voltage most countries besides the USA are not cool with "max" voltage ratings for tools.

Ebay has rebuild kits or just brand new after market packs that are not priced too bad. I'm sure Snap on wants a pretty penny for a replacement. Soldering new cells in is a huge pain the ass from what I have seen https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=m570.l1313&_nkw=snap+on+battery&_sacat=0

With Ryobi pushing out more premium but well priced brushless tools they are definitely looking more prosumer than for the DIY person. I had early lithium Ryobi tools before Milwaukee and they did the job but the designs or performance were not optimal.
-
Metabo is pretty niche when it comes to most of their tools except for their grinders.

Please make an offer I really need the extra cash at the moment!!

The Fuel guns use a sealed nitrogen canister, to the best of my knowledge. Not a replaceable gas canister like Paslode, maybe thats where the confusion is coming from, but they sure as hell aren't flywheel tech like Dewalt's.
You can defiantly feel a flywheel gun

I think the hydro makita is pretty bulky

I can't speak for the traditional cordless tools, however, I have heard that their miter saw and table saw have not sold that well... which slightly makes sense to me because those tools are not your typical tools that move all over... unlike a grinder, recip saw, drill, etc. I saw a live demo on the table saw and I thought it was pretty nice to be honest, plus the miter saw is pretty cutting edge in my opinion ( no pun intended?).
The idea of those tools being cordless is nice but most of the time bigger tools are set up as a cut station with AC power anyways or a generation is being used in the first place. It's cool but in reality its a narrow market I can see some of these tools being nice for re modelers because of space and access

I don't know if you noticed but I hardly see any free tool offers from Milwaukee anymore. They seem to have gotten a lot more stingy this year

None of the Lowes in Michigan ever stocked Metabo
-
Some UK stuff runs on 110 because they run that voltage on job sites.
-
Makita seems to put out the best impact drivers regarding size and power. That old brushed Milwaukee looks huge!!

The 2017 is a whole new truck. The super duty cab is based off the F-150 now. Ford did it so they could update things more often.

I wonder if today is the first day? Tomorrow might be the day with all the workshops and demo's.

Milwaukee was a little crazy for a moment on the pricing on their lighting.
