KnarlyCarl Posted January 10, 2016 Report Share Posted January 10, 2016 Dan did a periscope of the dewalt green lasers on the 7th, but it's gone now, you can try the link but I couldn't get it to workhttps://twitter.com/ToolsInAction/status/685256256693624835Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Glassey Posted January 10, 2016 Report Share Posted January 10, 2016 Yes I watched Dan periscope on the green and red lasers from DeWalt and the green one was awesome in a very brightly lighted garage. Don't know if they are in stores yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DPSElias Posted January 15, 2016 Report Share Posted January 15, 2016 The red laser version is significantly cheaperSent from my iPad using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimboS1ice Posted January 15, 2016 Report Share Posted January 15, 2016 I think the Reds just come with the AA battery packs as well.JimboSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DPSElias Posted January 15, 2016 Report Share Posted January 15, 2016 Yes it does can use the 12v batteries too, I think that is actually a cool feature incase you're not near an outlet and the battery dies you can get AA almost anywhere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to have that as a back up.JimboSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you all think ?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk When I watched the reviews of this power tool in YouTube, they are just discuss or explain the usage of this tool. Also they mention the package included of this power tool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimboS1ice Posted January 21, 2016 Report Share Posted January 21, 2016 At least you can use the 12V packs on the 20v chargerJimboSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffmcmillan Posted January 21, 2016 Report Share Posted January 21, 2016 With something drawing that little current there's no good reason not to make it dual voltage. It would take maybe $5 of parts (much less for a manufacturer) to make it dual voltage. Even if it was going to be single voltage their 12V line is practically nonexistent.

DR99 Posted January 21, 2016 Report Share Posted January 21, 2016 Why this ins't 20v is the mystery of the day IMO. I mentioned that when Dan showed them on Periscope earlier. Dan mentioned to keep size and weight down, but make it only compatible with compact 20v batteries. With how stagnant the Dewalt 12v line is besides the occasional test and measurement tool added recently this would have been better served being on the 20v platform. At least you could save a few dollars and get the bare tool version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be a car battery, who cares when you only handle it to put it up and take it down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
