Craigh9916 Posted June 21, 2016 Report Share Posted June 21, 2016 I'm looking forward to dan and Eric putting these to the test , would like to see the circular saw being compared to 20v Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveJr. Posted June 21, 2016 Report Share Posted June 21, 2016 I haven't seen anything on social media yet about new 20V tools. Only the new 60V/120V lines Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T75R Posted June 21, 2016 Report Share Posted June 21, 2016 Definitely have seen a lot of Milwaukee commercials on YouTube recently but I for one am excited about the new cordless DeWalt platform! I hate cords and love DeWalt so this is a game changer for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stercorarius Posted June 21, 2016 Report Share Posted June 21, 2016 Looks like second half of day is 20v time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T75R Posted June 21, 2016 Report Share Posted June 21, 2016 BTW who wants to place bets that Jimbo is the first one to buy a flexvolt tool! Lol 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PKDEWALT Posted June 21, 2016 Report Share Posted June 21, 2016 I don't know what to think yet i am glad i didn't buy any of the 40v tools seems like such a waste to even put their time and money in the line to then come out with 60v tools. Kinda like their 36v line and the 24v. As far as the amp hour battery i am sure they will have it up to 9 amp hour in no time look how fast the 20v system went from 3 to 4 and now 5&6. Some stuff i really don't think you need cordless and there just doing it to one up other companies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KnarlyCarl Posted June 21, 2016 Report Share Posted June 21, 2016 The competition will be good for every consumer. Dewalts 9ah will be out in January and then it will be a better comparison. Im partial to Dewalt because I like their miter saws and table saws so much. Yes, this is something they are very good at, I don't think many relate the word miter or table saw to Milwaukee Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DPSElias Posted June 21, 2016 Report Share Posted June 21, 2016 These are exciting tools, but I wish they expand the 20V line would like to see a 20v 7 1/4 Brushless circular saw, but I do like the 60v/20v idea this way you don't have a special 60v battery pack that can only be used on that specific tool like the old 24V and 36V dewalt stuff, still have a 24v Circular saw but no batteries. About time someone made an AC adapter for these cordless tools, this is great for the DIYer that like the cordless aspect but the tool doesn't become useless if the batteries die or get discontinued.

PKDEWALT Posted June 21, 2016 Report Share Posted June 21, 2016 It sucks to because when i first seen the leaked photos of the stud and joist drill i said i sure hope they could make one that would run off the 20v battery system now you have to pretty much buy another battery line to use one tool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now lets see what other 20V tools they release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DPSElias Posted June 21, 2016 Report Share Posted June 21, 2016 Yea, which these 60V tools would be compatible with a 20V battery in some capacity even if the power was a little less, but if you have a 20V line up you'll have several of those batteries and if you have one 60V tool, i.e. circular saw in my case, you'll have several 20V batteries and 1-2 60V batteries, but hey 20V tools can last nearly all day on one battery maybe the 60V will be just as good if not better but a circular saw usually chews through batteries....I'll wait for some video proof. But if I was going to need to invest into another line up I might just go to another brand......using 60V batteries on a 20V tool is nice.

MikeInCtown Posted June 21, 2016 Report Share Posted June 21, 2016 So am I understanding this correctly, they have come out with yet ANOTHER battery platform? This is one of the reasons why I ditched DeWalt to begin with. Others started to settle on one platform while DeWalt was still selling two styles of 18V batteries and tools. As far as voltage, it means nothing without the amp hours to back it up. Which is why i suspect Milwaukee put out their comparison pictured above. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't disagree, but at least you can use them on the 20V tools so it's not a completely new platform, but yes 60V tools will be a new platform....It's nice to see some bigger badder tools but at the expense of convenience. But honestly think this would make someone look at Milwaukee/Makita a little harder when deciding on a platform Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
