Someone posted in the Milwaukee deal thread (post 5714) that the next hd promo will be 299 for 2 ho 6.0s and a bare tool, one of them is the gen 3. I heard it’s kicking off May 24th but he didn’t mention that

Been a bit quiet here so I figured I would show my new addition, the gen 2 mid torque (2962). I was bit nervous to pair it with the 3.0, but after 2 days of use at work, I’m sold. I bring along a 6.0 just in case I encounter something the 3.0 can’t get but I have yet to need it. Unbelievable...
I noticed in my hi torque there is some serious battery play. I know this isn’t a unique issue with mine. What I am curious to know is if its damaging my battery. The reason I ask is because I saw a video where someone showed a rubber band that held the battery more snug to the tool. What do...
I think they are great deals. The general rule is that if you’re paying around 10 bucks per amp, it’s a good deal. Plus the 3.0 compact rarely goes on sale and eBay doesn’t have such a selection of them. During November/Black Friday the past 2 years they’ve have a sale for (2) 2.0 and (2) 4.0...
I got it the dcw210. I use it for woodworking. I don’t think it’s up to speed for auto body but I have little experience

Idk about oscillating tools but regarding the sander, I felt the same way. I went with dewalt in the end bc I found it for 80 bucks. I rarely use it but I like it a lot.
Each tool company has there pros and cons. As annoying as it is to be invested in more than one batt platform, being able to...
Sorry to backtrack a little. There was a recent discussion on the high output batteries, specifically that the 6.0 and the 8.0 are the same size so it would only make sense to assume the 8.0 is the better of the two. I watched this really informal video that did a test with the new mid torque...
That is really interesting regarding size and weight of the the 6.0 vs the 8.0. I got 2 6.0+router in November for 175 and I got the new gen 2 mid torque that I planned to use with the 6s. I also bought the 2853-22 packout deal that had 2 3.0 HO that I also considered for the mid torque for...
Best deal now which I think overall is very good is at hd a 6.0 and compact 3.0 for $99. A little above the $10/ah rating but the compact 3.0 is hard to come across a deal without needing to buy a tool

While the deal posting on sd wasn’t right, I wouldn’t be so concerned. There’s a website that sells dewalt tools for a crazy discount-50-100 bucks a tool- that’s been posted on sd multiple times and the site is still up. At least we all know the code name “Clark’s” now so hopefully the inventory...
Just to make sure we are talking about the same tool. K was talking about the gen 2 mid torque. someone found this item on clarks for 169, to which I responded that shipping to NY is 18 so for the mid torque, it was a better on Napa. The only reason the backpack vac was mentioned was the fact I...
The website is the biggest pain in the ****. I was able to find the 3/8 mid torque but not the half inch. So what I did was type in the search bar:
MIL 296220 and it came up as 213. Don’t know why but I wasn’t asking questions lol. I asked a rep about the rebate and he said you can file for the...
I looked how much shipping would be to New York (chose the backpack vac) and it was 18 so the Napa deal at 213 was better for me with the free batt. Btw it’s a 5.0 not 6.0
