  1. With 5ah batteries fast chargers aren't really needed IMO it would be hard to use a full battery in a day unless you're driving lags all day. The faster chargers charge a 5ah battery in about 30 mins I believe. 

  2. I would recommend 18v 3 speed impact driver as the speed adjustment allows for a huge range of flexibility. Even with variable speed trigger it is very easy to over drive a screw in softer woods. I would recommend the Milwaukee 2753 it is super compact and extremely powerful. Dewalt DCF887 is also a great impact driver with plenty of power and excellent ergonomics but I still would recommend the Milwaukee due to there overall better 18v lineup.

    If I recall correctly they went from just plain blades, to calling them "ax", "torch", etc, to putting "ax", "torch", etc. on the blades, to calling them "ice hardened".  The only change of blade design I know of are when they added thin kerf blades in there somewhere and started stamping a hexagonal pattern on some of the blades and neither of those were correlated with a marketing change.

    This isn't nearly as bad as the new "tracking point" diablo is marketing that has actually been on some of their blades for at least a year.  Their blades are still good but that sort of bs grinds my gears.

     

     

    The Hexagonal pattern isn't stamped its the bi-metal design. 

  4. I just got my new 2704 last week after my first one had some pretty bad chuck wobble. This one is extremely loud it sounds similar to a roots or screw type supercharger and its probably twice as loud as my first one. I will try to post a video of it tomorrow any of you guys have this issue.
