  1. There's a supermarket with one in the town I go to school at.
  2. How bright is that light? I'm not a fan of Ryobi but that garage opener has some pretty cool features. I haven't seen them on other openers.
  3. Looks great. A job fit for a wide belt
  4. I might try the 22 in ego normal trimmer. My current trimmer is an old corded b&d.

    New Kits

    Just noticed some new combo kits. These 2 aren't quite out yet. One is the entry level compact brushed drill and impact, two 1.5 batteries and a ds130 case. Another is a dcf887, dcd996, 2.0 battery, 5.0 battery, and ds130 https://shoptoolreviews.com/news/home-depot-tools-media-event/29412/attachment/home-depot-prospective-2017-event_34/#main I like the mixed battery kits. You get a compact for tight spaces and general use. You got your big for more runtime and power. The ds300 is a nice bonus. Another combo kit I seen on acme. it includes a dcf887, dcd996, dcl040, dcs367, two 5.0 batteries, charger, and bag http://www.acmetools.com/shop/tools/dewalt-dck494p2 I think DeWALT is finally starting fazing out the brushed 4+ tool combo kits with brushless tools. It's too bad the new kits come with a bag and not a ds300 or ds400.
  6. I hope the track saw will be included in this deal if it gets released by then. I don't need either of the free things but I could at least sell them.
  7. why not buy the trimmer then sell the trimmer but keep the free hedge trimmer? I'm sure someone here could use a string trimmer.
  8. maybe split up the handtools section into 2 subsections similar to how the tools by manufacturer is setup?
  9. I heard about adjustable shoes breaking.
  10. I could see them having less holding power @kornomaniac

    Work light

    Could I say DeWALT's selection of lights is similar to Ridgid? How do Bosch and Makita compare to DeWALT? Makita has about as many flashlights as impacts.
  12. not all on paper measurements are apples to apples. Each company has their own way to get their numbers.
  13. hmm maybe the battery is defective? My two 2.0 batteries haven't given me problems but they get medium light use in my drill and impact. I really like the 2.0 batteries. They are my favorite battery DeWALT offers. A 2.0 in my drill or impact lasts me quite awhile with light use. I used some 2.0's in a 20v circ saw last summer and the runtime was terrible. A saw is a higher demand tool than a drill and impact. I would guess the adapters are limited to 2.0 batteries and smaller because they are 5 cells vs 10 and 15 on the other DeWALT batteries.
  14. you guys talking about track saw or 20v brushless circ saw?
  15. @Fletcher94 an m18 2.0 battery is like a 4 cylinder gas pickup truck. It's the smallest of the bunch but also has the lowest power. Upgrade to an m18 4.0 or 5.0 and you are looking at something like a v6 pickup truck. A bit more power but also bigger in size and weight. An m18 HD 9.0 is like a v8 gas pickup. Lots of power and bigger as well. When you get into the dedicated ope batteries like the 54v and the 36v lines you upgrade to diesel engine trucks. More efficient when under load than the smaller batteries, more power, and much bigger. Pull a big trailer and the 4 cylinder will be able to pull the trailer but will perform the worst between the trucks.
  16. @Cr8ondt with DeWALT you have the option of switching out the mechanism for various tube sizes. Not sure if you can do this with Ryobi
  17. what is this nightmare fuel? Does it perform as well as a Milwaukee?
