It's a viscous cycle as when you move to one manufacturer another comes out with better stuff I have just learnt to buy a few different brands rather then all of one brand Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
overanalyze Posted June 19, 2016 Report Share Posted June 19, 2016 I read the battery voltage on the hole hawg was 20v but on the table saw it was 60v...so either a typo or the holw hawg can run on the 20v max too... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still run some Dewalt 18v l-ion stuff. My partner just upgraded his tools to team red but has had a ton of trigger issues. Granted they were all fixed for free but it has been a hassle. I ran some Bosch 18v stuff for awhile but sold most of it because I just didn't like the saw handle feel and the drill was a bit weak. I loved the brushless impact!!! I also like their brushless sds but the handle on the Dewalt is much better so that is going to be sold too. For compact tools I do like my Bosch 12v stuff!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We get our pee pee slapped if something comes out early unapproved from the manufacturer. Then they release on their own channel, teasers. I totally get that Dewalt has done all of the R&D, they have come out with new products, they have invested I'm sure millions of dollars, they want to pop the news out. I hope Acme didn't screw up. I can't imagine they did, I mean Dewalt released info in Europe. It's hard to figure out what they want us to do here if they release the info. All I can say is I am griping ear to ear. Dewalt doesn't release their tools regularly but I am certain it's because of the R&D they put into their products, coming out with proven winners, constantly. I'm stoked about these new tools, I just wish they had a friggin Brad released!!!!!!! Anyways, I'm posting mine up in the for sale section. Daddy needs a new recip!!!!! Even if they didnt want this info "leaked" or whatever, what is the harm in releasing this 2 days earlier then when they wanted? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveJr. Posted June 19, 2016 Report Share Posted June 19, 2016 If you can't use the current 20V batteries with the new tools i'm gonna be pissed! If you can use the new batteries with the old tools, then why not be able to use the old batteries with the new tools!!!! Maybe because the new battery is more expensive ($200 each) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like the 2 pack of the new batteries will sell for $200 which isn't too bad considering what they can do. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They didn't make the old tools extinct with the new platform like they did with the 20v max change. All your old tools will work on the new platform which will let you upgrade to newer tools as you see fit while still using your older stuff with the newer batteries. Smart on their part. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instead they will expect you to use one of these new batteries. I hope they still release some new 20V tools. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whenever the wife thinks about buying something I encourage her to get it so that when she sees my tool boxes in the garage she doesn't bat an eye. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kornomaniac Posted June 19, 2016 Report Share Posted June 19, 2016 Really interested to see how dewalt manages to switch voltages in the battery. The battery is labeled 20v / 6 amp. Going to 60v should arrange the cells in a different order. Interesting times..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimboS1ice Posted June 19, 2016 Report Share Posted June 19, 2016 So that's their answer, introduce a new line, brushless tools into available with their new packs... Way to crap on their 20v users. Yea ta nice you can use new packs on your old tools but say I wanted the new brushless recip saw I might as well throw my batteries at the garbage truck on Friday... Yea it's cool but it just pisses me off a little bit, I've made the right choice with Milwaukee recip and circ saw and I definitely don't regret it now. You do realize they will probably focus all in this line now and leave 20 and 12 sitting in the shadow... Sorry for negativity guys but hope some of you share my feelings or can understand them Jimbo Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turner85 Posted June 19, 2016 Report Share Posted June 19, 2016 Can anyone tell what sort of runtime we can expect on 60v tools on a battery that's basically 18v 6ah or am I even making sense 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm no marine biologist, but I think that 6ah at 20v(18) only be like 2ah at 60v(54). The grinder claims 13amp power. I hope that's not draw because that would result in less than ten minutes of runtime. I mean that would be more than their current grinder, but still. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
