    Any info on the m18 gen2 high torque impact wrench? Are the Size and weight any different than the gen 1?  Is the 1400ft/lbs a nut busting vs the gen 1 1100ft/lbs?

    1000 fastening, 1400 nutbusting. Haven't seen info on size and weight but I'd imagine same ballpark. 

  2. Yeah, really seemed to me that they don't have the tech this year or don't want to invest the resources to properly take on FlexVolt and expand market share and they instead decided to absolutely hammer down on their core trades, which isn't a terrible strategy. You don't want to go out on a limb for conquest customers and leave yourself open to bleeding your core market.

     

    Things I'll be buying before NPS18:

    gen2 Fuel high torque impact wrench

    carbide Big Hawgs

     M18 Fuel Hackzall

    M12 Fuel ratchets

     

    Maybe pile is gen2 M12 Fuel combo, M18 Fuel 7.25" mitre, M18 heat gun, M12 soldering iron, and M12 stapler. 

     

    @Jronman think how many of the current mitres they have in the retail distribution channel. A year to sell more of them rather than admitting they stumbled is likely up their alley. I was shocked to see no expansion of OPE. Next year will likely be 21700 cell battery blowout with X2 tools out the wazoo.

    Any idea when Milwaukee usually releases the specs and dates they go on sale?

    Influencers on Instagram will revisit all the stuff they've seen in further posts over the next while and generally are good about giving specs and dates (quarters at least lol).

  4. I agree with you @The.Handyman, the DS130 is not meant for that abuse; I carry lightweight stuff in mine, while impacts and sockets, Sawzalls, etc are in a DS150 which should be notably tougher. They are  2 years too late for me as I already have hundreds of dollars of ToughSystem but for a small setup I may be tempted to grab a few boxes and a tote; I love that compatibility. Also love the versatility of so many sizes vs standard width of other systems. 

     

    Im anticipating them being priced in the Systainer range if RedStick is anything to go off of lol.

    That radius light had 2 battery slots... very interesting. I beat it drains 1 battery, then auto-switches and drains 2nd battery. I'd also bet that it charges at least 1 of them. Then the bigger question... what else might get 2 batteries??

    9000 lumen, sequential charging. You're a smart man.

  6. M18 Fuel Mud Mixer. Looks like a futuristic take on your typical corded drill used on mud. Looks ergonomic. 

     

    M12 Air Snake compressor for clearing clogs. 50 psi. 

     

    M18 Fuel Hackzall ?

     

    M18 Fuel 7.25" dual bevel mitre. 

     

    MODULAR STORAGE SYSTEM ? Dropping cinder blocks on ToughSystem, obliterating the box. Bounces off the red version. Easy to use recessed latch; one touch connection like Systainer instead of plastic crap yellow latches. 

     

    M18 Fuel drum cleaner

     

    M12 Fuel ratchets ? 1/4", 3/8" and 1/2"

     

    gen 2 M12 Fuel drill and impact

     

    carbide Big Hawgs that can handle "hundreds of nails"

     

    m12 soldering gun

     

    m18 heat gun

     

    m12 power source v2, charges m12 via USB as well as powering other devices via USB.

    The way it sounded from Toolaholic, Milwaukee was skipping 20700 and going to 21700 but that wouldn't occur for another year or so.

     

    Doesn't mean they couldn't have some made for the show to reveal.

     

    We will see in 6hrs!

     

    Well gives me a lot more time to make money to spend on whatever we see today lol.

  8. Yes, I'm aware, back to the way it was in the 90s until the 99-16 rule of terror. My comment was in regards to the "three generations" of super duty that saw fewer aesthetic differences than the current and last generation of Camaro. There's very little not to like about the redesign, the F150 cab has always blown the SDs away, and the new model finally moves into the present with a fully boxed frame. Now that GM has weird hood scoops Ford takes the crown in the looks department away from the GMC imo (sorry Ram fans).

    but it did include a refresh.

    Upgrades and mechanical updates sure. New headlights and grills don't count for much though. Truck barely changed, if at all, from the A pillar back.
