No. No. No. A 15A breaker doesn’t trip at 12A. You are confusing a continuous rated breaker with a non-continuous breaker. A non-continuous breaker can only be loaded to 80% as per the CEC/NEC. A continuous rated breaker (expensive) can be loaded right to 100%. Residential code is based off the assumption that non-continuous rated equipment is installed and almost all home loads are cyclical. (A continous load is one where the maximum current is expected to continue for 3 hours or more, non-continuous load is less than 3 hours.) Hence the 12a load on a 15a breaker limit. Also, the first thing to look for with GFCI related nuisance trips is electronic loads. Electronic Dimmers, occupancy sensors, etc. Combine that with an inductive load you are asking for trouble. GFCI monitors the current and trips when there is 6mA or greater ground fault. Also, sometimes you just need to replace the breaker. Over time and multiple trips, they can get temperamental! I have a GFCI in bathroom that loves to trip when you turn off the LED lights while the fan is running!

You’ll get exactly what you paid for. It will get the job done, just be mindful that is not built to last. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Packout wish list: - 10” Tote that has fixed pockets. - Compact Packout Backpack - removable shallow parts organizer that fits into wheeled box - Open top “milk crate” box like Ridgid and DeWalt Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I want Makita to steal Milwaukee’s USB charging idea. I love that the M12 power supply can charge an M12 battery and serve as a USB power bank. It’s not a fast charger, but it’s super convenient. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I store my tools in airtight boxes when possible. I use silica packs because I live in Canada and winter condensation is a real thing. I have all Ridgid and Packout boxes. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

There is nothing Meh about it! Especially for $280 CAD. https://www.hilti.ca/cordless-systems/cordless-impact-drivers-and-wrenches/r4265 https://www.hilti.ca/cordless-systems/cordless-impact-drivers-and-wrenches/r4659308 (I know they are half the power of the Makita brushless, sarcasm obviously.)

Bad brushes, damaged commutator, failing switch. Just a couple things that also cause power loss. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Have you used any x2 tools? The Makita SDS Max is a beast. It isn’t bulkier or heavier than a corded model. The power of newer 18/36/54v cordless tools is nearly identical to their corded counterparts. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

We take it for granted, the power and portability of these tools. Batteries are becoming comically large and heavy, and for what? People want tools that are awkward and heavy just to save a battery change? Those batteries just aren’t practical on most small tools. I love the size and weight of Makita batteries. I really hope they don’t introduce boat anchor batteries. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I run 5.0 in my rotary hammer drill/hammer drill/recip saw, 2.0 in my service impact and lights. I like light and portable for service, big batts for all day use. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Multimeter is your friend. Test your switch, conductors etc. The deadman switches are prone to dirt etc. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

It is directly related. The space around the batteries would appear to support a larger pack. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
