William S Posted August 12, 2015 Report Share Posted August 12, 2015 I see the new m18 hammer drill available online at acme and home depot but I cannot find any in stores. My question is , is the new hammer drill out , if not does anyone have the release date. Acme has the old fuel hammer drill and impact on sale so the new ones must be close. Also does the impact driver come out along with it or do we have to wait until Sept to buy the kit? thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DR99 Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 I think they are going to be out soon I think the original eta was mid august. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
William S Posted August 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 thanks Jason, I wonder if the first batch will be one key compatible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DR99 Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 The Fuel and One Key brands don't cross over. Tools that only Have One Key branding will be compatible so far. It might change in the future though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
austinthecity Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 I think I read somewhere the first one key tools (besides the crimper) will come out 2016 earlyish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DR99 Posted August 15, 2015 Report Share Posted August 15, 2015 I just seen HD on the product page say that they are going to ship on September 10th Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
William S Posted August 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2015 Oh so the drills are a month behind than, I recall the drills were august and the impact is sept. That's fine though because if I am going to buy one I'm going for both in a kit.The $250 sale on the current hammer drill and impact is hard to resist.

William S Posted August 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 ok thanks Jason, I recall them saying August for the drill and sept for the impact. They must have just pushed the drill back so they can offer the sets right away. Either that or they are waiting so they can implement one key right away just so people have that option at release.thanks for the replies and don't worry Ricky I still love my Dewalt lol!

William S Posted August 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 congrats on the new Milwaukees, my local Acme never had them on the shelf this last weekend. The guy I was talking to never knew anything about them, but he never knows a darn thing it seems.Anyways enjoy the new tools Bremon, post some pics please and try not to snap your wrist off !
