  1. Hi,

    more news for you guys out there !

     

    I can now speak of several new products

    watch out for  different posts

     

    NEW DCN680 brad nailer (EU), not sure if USA has same model number

    Brushless XR 18 Gauge Brad Nailer

    DCN680 Brushless XR 18 Gauge Brad Nailer has a compact, lightweight and ergonomic design that makes the tool easy and comfortable to use but durable enough for the work site environment. Mechanical rather than gas operation offers low running costs and consistent performance, even at low temperatures.

    Fitted with a brushless motor that offers increased runtime and durability. Trigger and contact trip lock-off prevent accidental discharge of fastener. With tool free stall/jam clearance to minimise down time. The depth of drive can be easily adjusted using the thumb wheel depth adjuster.

    Two modes of operation: Sequential mode allows for precision placement, Bump operating mode provides the user with production speed of up to 4 nails per second.

     

    DCN680D2: 2x 18 Volt 2.0Ah
    DCN680N: Bare Unit

     

    Specification

    Magazine Capacity: 110.
    Fires: Nails: Length: 15-54mm. Diameter: 1.25mm.
    Nailer Operating Mode: Bump & Sequential.
    Magazine Angle: 20°.
    Weight: 2.4kg.

  2. Hi 

    just browsing my favorite stores, I noticed flexvolt price reduction

     

    HD

    flexvolt kits , T1, 1 battery lowered from $299 to $249

    this includes

    DCG414T1

    DCS388T1

    DCS575T1

     

    the mitre saw and table saw are also lowered at least bz $100

     

    I assume the main reason is the competition !

    Milwalkee has a similar new set with the new battery also priced at $249

    so not a coincidence

     

     

    cheers

  9. looks my questions were overlooked with so many comments in this thread

     

    Does anyone already know with what tool(s) this battery (20V max 6,0Ah)  will be bundled with as a kit ?

    hence, we would also then know the abbreviation of battery (type)

     

    e.g.

    M2 was 2x 4,0Ah

    P2 was 2x 5,0Ah

     

    Reminder: one of worlds largest building fairs/trade show in Munich Germany as of Jan16th 2017

    Dewalt (as all other major tools companies) have a big booth

    I know some product managers there, maybe some "disclosed secrects"  to be heard of;

     

    For sure the new flexvolt sds hammer will be shown !

     

    cheers
