Wow that's way to much for a 12 volt looks nice a glad to see 12 volt moving forward but that's nuts

it is the exact opposite of what we learned.. but when these lith cells die it damages them. think that is y my dad has prob all the time I cant break him of that... they should educate a lil more.. with my lith rc batteries if they aren't properly cared for they catch fire and burn incredibly hot. same thing with those damn boards that keep burning up. diff ball game with this extra power. good luck to u hope u can get the prob fig out and join us on the quest to cut the cord lol.. well until its needed again gotta charge them that way lol.. corded saws are the way to go but when u have to run as much cord as u did that is a pain the the behind..
-
and I know I had issues with batteries coming from tti so u could have got some messed up ones. do they happen to be under warranty still? I didn't know mine were until they told me when I was buyin new ones I got some new ones free it took the sting out of my failing batterys a lil bit
-
ya sounds like u need the bigger batterys atleast 4.0 the 5 would work way better tho (obviously). u should have been able to get that done with 1 battery... the saws do drain them faster but should have made it. sounds like a frustrating day in the back 40. hate that!

lol ya that was a weird post for 3 words

That looks nice!!

Its funny you mentioned that because I have stopped using the hammer function once I started using my rotary hammer, no comparison, so no I do not

rotary hammer would be sweet to have.. I would find reasons to use that!

does anyone really ever use the hammer function on a compact drill? I don't usually recommend much hammer use for one ....
I went out and bought one and have used hammering action 1 time lol so not really.. guess it is nice to have when I do have cement to drill into tho. I should have got a bare tool instead I could have went without the hammer drill that 1 time lol.. reg drill driver would do most of it just not as fast
-
I still think the pc is a good deal and good way to go with the tools and all included.. but I know how u feel its such a big decision always have that lil voice sayin well maybe that one is better... hmm good luck to u sir lol

if u are already happy then grab a diff tool could maybe get bare tools since u have batteries, Milwaukee has sweet tool selection. I'm sure u would notice a diff but could get somethin pretty cool for 230 bucks lol. like grinder and circ saw lol
-
it is prob the same compressor diff color lol. same parent company u get a staple gun brad nailer and finish nailer for same price as the dewalt with just the brad nailer

i see your more professional than diy, so chriss and protoolnut would be more inline than what i said earlier. you would probably be more happy buying in the brushless line, than not, especially in the torque'e tools like saws and your bigger drills, this is where the brushless really shines
would be nice but not for that $ I never have a issue tho my pc runs strong all day.. maybe when they come out with there brushless tools ill grab those I did see they have been talking about it. and I think they will be closer to what I can feel comfortable paying u know.. I do see the benefit and would be awesome but ouch lol
-
that is a good looking compressor just wasn't looking that size. the husky 20 is comparable at 170 but this one is rated with better cfm
-
ya I was looking also lol, ic that the pc pancake is on sale at hd for 129 and the huskey 8 gal on wheels is also 129. hf has on also but that's 100 bucks. so ya guess if u get a good coupon would help.. I almost got that pc combo at hd has the three air guns and compressor for 200 that always looks nice

I guess the 3 gal is pretty cheap also but that is small..
-
o I was looking at the small ones like he had 21 gallon is pretty big.. the pancake was like 100 tho.. that is a good deal for that beast tho forsure
-

James, are you talking diy or more woodworking? What kind of projects are you planning on?
just In general I make living with my tools but just hard to spend that money. I do kitchens and recently been doin decks with my dad between the two of us we can stay pretty busy doin those, we will do pretty much anything but that's what we enjoy doing. so brushless for me would just be nice but def no needed like Mohawk said just buy more batteries so work doesn't stop. guess would just be less trips to the charger with brushless lol

Kobalt SCMS
in Power Tools

that is sweet!! I have always looked and just wondered how well it worked. Looks like it works just like the 10in kobalt I have. great video man now someone should make a vid about the new brushless kobalt vs the big boys yellow and red hint hint lol.. if I had the cash I would buy u some for that video lol. good work look forward to the next video..
