  1. Spanish Q1 On-Site now live. Think the final page shows new router and RO sander officially in EU for the first time. Also confirms the rotated battery for the EU sander. https://www.dewalt.es/partage/brochures-ES/Brochures/Folleto-ONSITE-Novedades-y-Promociones-Q1-2019.pdf
  2. Assume $249 is bare tool?
  3. New Dutch Q1 brochure: https://www.dewalt.nl/partage/brochures-NL/190025_DeWALT_OnSite Q1_NL-NL_dig.pdf Has several of the new tools although I’ve never seen anyone ‘freestyle’ with a jigsaw like the guy on page 15! (Crazy Hollanders) Not seen the backpack/rucksack before.
  4. Flip the nut over (opposite to the guidance stamped on the nut) I have to do this on my first-gen 4.5” Dewalt grinder. Never worked out why!
  5. LinK here quotes a ‘capacity’ of 210CM³ Seems like an odd unit of measurement! https://www.dewalt.com/products/power-tools/rotary-and-demolition-hammers/rotary-hammers/20v-max-brushless-universal-dust-extractor-tool-only/dwh161b
  6. Personally, I don’t need it. .......but I do want it! 🤩
  7. What’s the model number? Can you take a photo of underside? Where did you buy it?
  8. None of the EU 2019 brochures/catalogs released so far include the DCW210 cordless sander. UK online retailers have it listed for pre-order with delivery in April 2019.
  9. Portuguese 2019 Catalog (148 pages) https://www.dewalt.pt/DWbrochureStorage/catalogue/6/ebrochure.pdf List price of the new DCL074 light and the 12Ah battery both showing as 268 euro (ouch!) But I'm not seeing any new game-changers.
  10. As Jimbo has pointed out, DeWalt have already thought of that! 😂 My garage/workshop is populated with a mix 'n' match assortment of 18V XR (EU) and 20V Max (US) tools, sourced and collected depending on price and availability. I try to buy bare in US as much as possible to avoid junking perfectly good (but useless to me) chargers.
  11. French Q1 2019 brochure: https://www.dewalt.fr/partage/brochures-FR/DEWALT_Best-Of_catalogue_S1-2019.pdf
  12. £269 each!?! I live in UK but buy most of my Dewalt gear in US. Currently sat on a 747 heading home with a 60V blower in the hold. Have two 12Ah batteries ($199 each) and two 20V sanders ($94 each with BF code) on order and will pick those up when I’m back in February.
  13. I’m in the UK and around 80% of my Dewalt cordless kit is purchased in the US and shipped back personally (I take around 4 business trips to Miami each year). I buy mainly bare tools and have only ditched one US charger. So yes, you’ll be fine but consider two factors: 1) Kiss goodbye to any warranty. I’m a keen DIYer so my tools are all (relatively) lightly used. 2) Take ALL batteries in hand luggage. Check your airline’s Li-Ion restrictions carefully and take a copy with you in case CBP get picky. With the Flexvolt batteries, make sure the transport cap is fitted. Again, take a copy of Dewalt’s guidance on the transport cap in case CBP take interest. I’ve carried 3-4 5Ah batteries and 2x 9Ah flexvolt batteries no problem. EDIT: Sorry, just re-read your post. You need to check if the batts can be shipped in the container.
  14. I think Acme are saying end of November
  15. The unit shown on Northern Tool is different the the one shown in the OP? 🤔
  16. Good spot. Looks ideal for emergency purposes.

    2x20V lawn mower

    I ended up buying the mower ‘bare’ here in the UK (where that is an official Dewalt option, rather than a reseller removing the batteries/charger from a kit and selling separately). Expensive but allowed me to just throw in 2x 9Ah batts I already owned.
  18. But does it come with a rafter hook? 🤣

    2x20V lawn mower

    I meant, damaged if I fly Miami to London with my mower (in original packaging) as checked luggage. ✈️

    2x20V lawn mower

    Amazon says 74lb shipping weight. Minus 4lb for the batteries and charger puts me bang on my single item limit of 70lb. My only real concern is box strength and the mower being damaged in transit.

    2x20V lawn mower

    UK resellers are selling it for £349 bare but at that price I may as well buy the kit in the US, keep/sell the 5’s and toss the 110V charger. (I travel to US pretty regularly and travel hand luggage only. My checked bag allowance on the return leg generally has a ‘Dewalt’ flavour)

    2x20V lawn mower

    Does anyone know of a US retailer selling the 2x20V mower as a bare unit? I see the 40V version available bare but cannot see anywhere offering the ‘homeowner’ version on the same basis.
