Jronman Posted November 27, 2017 Report Share Posted November 27, 2017 we have a winner. 3 was the correct guess. @kornomaniac or @comp56 can be up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BMack37 Posted November 28, 2017 Report Share Posted November 28, 2017 Are you serious? 3 cups? Wow, that's kinda awful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jronman Posted December 13, 2017 Report Share Posted December 13, 2017 Guess I will keep this going Name 5 tools from DeWALT that are hybrid meaning corded or cordless. Cannot include radios. Avoid similar tools like drill vs drill with hammer mode or fixed saw vs sliding. Something like a spot light vs an area light would be different enough to count as different guesses.

fm2176 Posted December 13, 2017 Report Share Posted December 13, 2017 Wet/dry vacuum, miter saw, area light, portable power station (plugged in it acts as charger, batteries provide power source), fan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jronman Posted December 13, 2017 Report Share Posted December 13, 2017 @fm2176 I thought the vac was corded too but I checked and saw nothing mentioned about being able to plug in. I could be mistaken though, I'll give it to ya though. Your up. The other one I was thinking of was an old 18v fluorescent light. There was this 18v/20v led light I thought was corded but same deal as the vac. No mention of being able to use a cord. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the cheaper battery only version. Next, I'll offer a convoluted question with an easy answer: What did early ni-cad to lithium battery conversions require the purchase of? What would happen if the original equipment were used? To clarify: Ryobi, Porter Cable, and other manufacturers offered 18v ni-cad systems that later adopted lithium ion batteries. These batteries were not compatible with all components of the original ni-cad kits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dwain Posted December 15, 2017 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2017 OK new question: What's the best brand? . . jk. Which 2-speed cordless drill has the highest no-load RPM? (Make and model) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jronman Posted April 6, 2020 Report Share Posted April 6, 2020 @dwain Makita has their premium brushless at 2100 rpm and Bosch aso has the 18v brute tough drill at 2100 rpm. any over 2100 rpm I saw did so via 3 or 4 speeds. I am guessing I am missing one but I am not sure what it could be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beatrice_mom Posted September 8, 2020 Report Share Posted September 8, 2020 I did not find information in the topic, maybe I missed it. But what about cordless brush cutters? Hand brush cutters never fail. But hands get tired brutally. How do rechargeable batteries show themselves? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric - TIA Posted September 15, 2020 Report Share Posted September 15, 2020 Corded or cordless. For corded, I love my Bosch. For cordless, it depends what batteries you all ready have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SFLDave Posted June 10, 2021 Report Share Posted June 10, 2021 Quick question, this seems like the right thread. In the film The Driller Killer, the killer adapts a mains power drill to run off a power pack on his belt. How feasible is this? How practical would it be to run amok with a power pack on your belt?

Asking for a friend In 1979, when the film was made, it would be impractical. Now, maybe not so much. While not designed to run power tools, Milwaukee and Ryobi both make cordless single-battery inverters, while the DeWalt power station could easily run a drill and would be able to fit on a harness or in a backpack. Tell your friend to invest in a cutoff saw instead. They'd probably be much more effective, even if a lot messier. 👶 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good question. I'm no expert, just a lowly Soldier who did some quasi-electrical work in my civilian job twenty years ago, but I'd say that some sort of DC converter would be needed, and a smallish car (motorcycle, perhaps?) battery would be the most optimal for power versus size/weight. I'll have to check out the movie, but if I go on a spree I'll be glad I've got multiple cordless drills and saws along with numerous bits and blades. I know (hope?) your questions are theoretical and meant to add some dark humor to the forums. Even so, I'll state that my responses are in no way to be considered advice. As an American I own a few dozen firearms, none of which have taken a life since the mid-Twentieth Century (Mosins, and Mausers, and Enfields, oh my!).
