n00b Posted September 28, 2016 Report Share Posted September 28, 2016 Dewalt trimmer crapped out on me. Local Lowe's only carrying 40v line of outdoors. Anyone know anything? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DR99 Posted September 28, 2016 Report Share Posted September 28, 2016 I didn't hear anything maybe a new version is coming out or Lowes is not going to sell it over the winter. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jronman Posted September 28, 2016 Report Share Posted September 28, 2016 I seen listed in the new section on Dewalt's website the 20v outdoor power equipment. I'm guessing no? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickB Posted September 28, 2016 Report Share Posted September 28, 2016 Local home depot still has the 20v outdoor yard tools 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bremon Posted September 28, 2016 Report Share Posted September 28, 2016 I would say it's end of season and no need to warehouse things people don't buy for 6 months. With FlexVolt OPE either the 20v or 40v stuff will disappear I would think. I thought 40v previously but 20v getting the axe potentially makes more sense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grumpy MSG Posted September 28, 2016 Report Share Posted September 28, 2016 I never saw the 20V at my local Lowe's, only the 40V. Meanwhile the nearby Home Depot has had the full 20V line including the hedge trimmer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffmcmillan Posted September 29, 2016 Report Share Posted September 29, 2016 End of the season? pffft. Here it just means you can get by with every other week. Chances are it didn't sell well so they just didn't refill stock. It's even more confusing on Home Depot where they actually stay "discontinued" when in reality they just stopped stocking the product. 20V OPE is unlikely to disappear because it sells well with people who don't need a dedicated OPE line. The large 40V 7.5Ah pack has 30 cells and two 60V packs have 30 cells so I have a feeling there will be 120V OPE. 40V won't be discontinued but neither has the 12V "line" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bremon Posted September 29, 2016 Report Share Posted September 29, 2016 lol end of season for retail means something completely different than it does for normal people. Fall gear gets cleared out for Halloween crap which in turn gets replaced by Xmas gear before the kids are done their candy. Those trimmers and blowers are taking up valuable real estate in the "seasonal" department. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickyMcGrath Posted September 29, 2016 Report Share Posted September 29, 2016 Here in Houston, Lowes hasn't ever carried 20V yard equipment that I've seen. Home Depot has had the 20v yard equipment on an end cap for at least, all summer. They just moved it all over to the OPE section in the past few weeks. Seasons changing and depending on your location, every region will do different things. I little birdy told me there may actually be an EXPANSION to the 20v OPE around Spring 2017. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bremon Posted September 30, 2016 Report Share Posted September 30, 2016 I want a FlexVolt mower badly. 2x 60v (with the 3.0 batteries) would do just fine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
