I saw a video somewhere about it awhile ago. It seems like they decided to drop it for some reason. They didn't send any reviews or do any marketing for it.
It is bran new, I think it just started shipping.

What generators used 18v batteries? Was it for electric start or something?
Yep, electric start.
-
18v Tools that won't accept the adapter:
- Nailers
- Radios
- Chargers
- DC020 & DC022 Lights
- Generators
- Vac & Lasers (will work but the doors won't close)
- Earlier model 18v band saws (don't have a date code yet)

Actually, the lights on the XPS saws has 3 LED's and because of that, is a lot brighter than the add on light.

I've heard the area in the store that has the power tools referred to as the "tool corral". In some higher theft stores, there is only 1 entrance/exit to the area, that is why I thought it may be refereed to as that.

I don't know if a retailer requested specifically requested Dewalt make the DCD771, or Dewalt knew that stores want to sell a drill kit for around 100 dollars for the holiday season. Milwaukee sells a bushed model its the same model of brushed tool they offer for sale, but they only include one battery at that cheap price.
You hit it on the head with the $100 dollar idea.
-
I don't personally sell CribMaster but it is part of the Stanley Black & Decker company that Dewalt belongs to. Let me know if you need some contact info.
-
Dewalt does not change anything about a tool to hit a lower price point. They will sell a different tool (DCD771 for example) that may not be as powerful as the DCD780 and may come with different batteries and a charger that doesn't charge as fast, in order to hit a lower price point. But you won't find a cheaper/more robust version of the same model number tool.

Yes, the 895 is going away.

I would like one of those totes for my cordless collections my current tote can't hold my daily use cordless tools and batteries.
Where did you get this?
Anyone have a link to where I can find one of these?
Google Search:
DWST08205I saw one US online retailer that is stocking them. They just started shipping out.

1) A more expensive solution would be to use CribMaster cabinets. you can read about them here: http://www.cribmaster.com/solutions/tool-control/prolock
2) Dewalt's new bluetooth batteries allow you to lend a battery out to someone for a specified amount of time along with typing in who you lent it to. After the lend time is up, the battery will disable its self.

I'm not sure if big box stores carry the brushless compact drill. If they carry the DCD790D2 I'm sure they will carry the 791 when it becomes available. Because the 791 is replacing the 790. Same with the 886 and the new 887 impact. ETA December. Sorry, I'm not on the big box side, but i'm willing to bet you'll see both new tools there.

whats the model or sku number for the dewalt radio?
DWST08810
-
The newer ones are, I think they started making them here this summer. I just visited the manufacturing facility a few weeks ago and saw them being made in person.

I currently have the Makita small handheld blower. I am seriously eyeing the DeWalt if it is any better as 90% of my tools/batteries are DeWalt. The blowers appear to be nearly identical though.
The small blower is pretty identical to the Makita and Milwaukee... If you need something more powerful the 20v DCBL720P1 has 4X the power at 400 CFM.

In case you didn't know, Dewalt makes a dust collection unit like that. http://www.dewalt.com/tools/hammerdrills--hammers-dust-extraction-systems-dwh050k.aspx
It even has a suction cup (utilizing suction from the vac) so it will stick to a vertical wall.
-
It's 100CFM if that helps.
I don't have one yet though.
-
anybody know when these will be available?
Should see it in December

How quickly does it stop when you release the trigger? If it feels like a braking grinder, grinding down whatever it's catching on and/or greasing the bearings should do the trick.
If you've ever hit the wheel lock on a grinder right after shutting it off, you'll notice the nut loosens and sometimes files off along with the wheel. This is the principle for some tool free grinders because it loosens the nut, but those have a notch in the nut and spindle so it doesn't spin all the way off, just loosens. I'm guessing the brake on the new milwaukee grinder is part of the reason it can use the tool-free nut, because if you've ever tried to remove a grinding wheel that's been worn down without changing you know that little twist handle won't cut it. Slowing quickly isn't so much of a problem if it is smooth, but if the spindle or motor or anything is catching somewhere it acts sort of like an impact driver to loosen the nut.
That was a lot more rambling than I expected.
tldr: Slowing down reverses the force of speeding up and can loosen the nut instead of tightening it.
I've had this problem before on one of our grinders. The spindle lock was malfunctioning and was catching the arbor as it slowed down. This caused the nut to loosen up. Listen to the tool as it slows down and see if you hear any scraping or other noises.

It's a great vac, hope you like it. For anyone in the US. The part # is DWV012

You can use "wedge bolts" aka concrete screws. What's nice about these is they are removable. Expansion anchors are not, you have to cut them.

This radio is "Awesome" ............if it had a bottle opener it would be perfect!
I am soooooo glad I went with DeWalt's Toughsystem.

This is the new Milwaukee radio: http://toolguyd.com/milwaukee-m18-jobsite-radio-2890/ - It has no bluetooth
This is their bluetooth radio that came out early 2014 that I think you are talking about: http://toolguyd.com/milwaukee-m18-bluetooth-jobsite-radio-charger/
All bluetooth is similar, they advertise up to 100 ft of range, when in reality you get about 30'
The new Dewalt radio is a charger as well.
-
Are you able to give a timeframe? Say before or around Q2 2016?
I have not heard a date for it yet, but i'm hopeful.

People who are saying "I'm still waiting on a 20v brushless recip and circ saw"... The new 60v recip and circ are brushless and while they run on the 60v battery, you can still use those 60v batteries in your other 20v tools. So the only down fall is you have to buy new batteries when you get these new brushless saws. But those batteries will work in your other tools. So there really isn't a big problem in my opinion. The 60v batteries are retailing for $10 more than the 5.0 20v batteries, so you can almost consider these new saws part of your 20v system (almost). You also get a lot more power than the Fuel.
