  1. Power detect weaker than the flexvolt?

    in Dewalt

    Posted

    What I’ve seen online is the POWER DETECT has more power with an 8ah 20v than when it has a 9ah flexvolt. 

     

    The FLEXVOLT ADVANTAGE has more power with a flexvolt than a 20v battery

     

    But at the end of the day, a sharp (or dull) blade is really going to be the biggest difference, no matter what tool you have.

    Anybody see the Home Depot 20v trimmer "deal" . It's dcst925. I'm guessing it's a diy Home Depot cheap version Compared to the original one like I have: dcst920 that's been working great since initial release.

    Little clarification, I left out few helpful words: I tried using my DCN682 Flooring Stapler for the first time, owned it for a year now. 

    Customer must have bought some real soft 3/8" engineered wood. (3/4 osb subfloor). It easily sends the 1-1/2"  staple 75% thru the board. Way too far.    

     

    Using a pneumatic Bostich 18 gauge Stapler, with 1-1/2" staples at the lowest air pressure (70-75), it  sets them ok. 

    I have the Dewalt's depth as shallow as possible, and the foot adjusted to the flooring. I don't think I'm pushing too hard on it; I'm used to rapid/sequential mode and a quick nailing pace.

    I'm no landscaper but doesn't the string trimmer just do the edge while the lawnmower does the bulk. What's the point of a longer string trimmer when you only need 10-12 in ,mower gets the rest.

     

     

    The longer the string is, the higher the speed of the end of the string.

  11. dcb206 or flexvolt batt?

    For this question, I have 5AH's and XR 6.0AH's. 

     

    The XR 6s last quite a bit longer in my Grinder and Circular Saw. The 5s show a little warmth, the XR 6s stay cool. 

     

    I just got my first Flex 6.0 because it came with the power station. Haven't used it much yet.
