  1. I need not buy them, they are obviusly shipped with the radio

    hence I have three tough system radios

     

    I would not call it external tranformer, that is missleading

     

    same priciple as  chargers or otheres

    the plug is country specific, 110V plug, internally ttransforms down to the required volage

    voltage

    sometimes it is 12v, 9,6v or 6v

     

    cheers

     

  2. unbelievable Black Friday price at ACME tools

  3. The thoughsystem radio is one of the best radios on the market at this time

     

    to consider:

    are you moving towards flexvolt system ?

    this radio can´t charge flexvolt batteries

     

    2) therefore an option is also the flexvolt radio/charger dcr025

     

    they are the same price !

     

    plus promotion going on right now !

     

    cheers

  5. don´t you mean the dewalt 6,0Ah batteries in this thread ?

     

     

    they are just "around the corner" !

     

    anyone know this date ?

     

     

    also the flexvolt 9,0Ah batteries to be released when ?

    what I know for sure is the abbreviation

    = x

    so a x2 kit willhabe 2x flexvolt battery with 9,0ah 

     

    cheers

  6. Flexvolt Radio

    DCR025

    available 1. Nov 2016

    approx. $199

    The DCR025 is designed to be the most versatile Jobsite Radio Charger on the market. The unit is able to run off and charge DEWALT slide pack battery packs including 20V and FLEXVOLT packs at 3 AMPs when plugged into an AC outlet. The unit is designed to include woofers, tweeters and air ports to provide clear and rich sound at all volume levels. An over sized device storage box protects devices from worksite conditions and includes an Aux and 2.1 AMP USB charging port for convenient device charging. 2 AC Power outlets on the side of the unit allows you to plug in additional tools or chargers without occupying additional outlets on the wall. AVRCP (Audio Visual Remote Control Protocol) allows you to control your device from the radio interface so you can keep the device in a safe place and skip to the next song or hit replay on the radio interface.

  7. I have the NEW flexvolt brochure that is available at the Demos at HD as a handout

    (when a rep is onsite)

     

    on the back page of this brochure further flexvolt tools are listed  with "coming soon"

    as an example

    dch481x2 Rotary Hammer

    dcbl770x1 blower

    both state "includes flexvolt 9.0 ah battery"

    so we can also conclude that the 9.0Ah batteries contained in kits is "X"

    x1 = 1x 9.0ah battery

    x2 = 2x 9.0ah battery

     

    also listed is the tracksaw, as kit it will ship with 6.0ah battery ( dcs520T1)

     

    I also received a free battery with each flexvolt purchase !

    this is part of the onsite promotion

     

    cheers

    If I was to guess I would think they were worried about price points on the new system, and overwhelming people with the need for a monstrous amount of batteries off the hop. I don't really know though. The hybrid option adds a decent chunk to the cost from my understanding; maybe easier to sink that cost into an expensive mitre to start with. Just guesswork on my part of course. 

    DCS778 also in Germany

    larger cutting capacity

    max. cutting specs

    90/90 deg = 305x85 mm (270x60mm in comparision to DCS777)

    90/45 deg = 305x58 mm 

    45/90 deg = 215x85 mm 

    45/45 = 215x 30 mm 

     

    sawblade is 250x 30

    17,2 kg compared to 14kg of DCS777

    cheers
