Good catch, didnt even think of that route. Good thing I posted here first
Some of us don't need the "latest and greatest", even though the marketing department says otherwise. The 4th-gen tool costs $139 at HD (tool only). Is it worth 74% more dollars than the 3rd-gen? Some say yes, some say no. I just ordered the $80 version at Amazon.
I probably should have bought it. No hack but I need the M12 battery and charger. Showing today at $199
This one only appears to be the tool and battery
That is correct.I snagged one earlier today. If someone needs a charger they are plentiful on Facebook marketplace for $10-15 atleast 5 per week here.
I use and like this one, it's an "Autohaus" brand from amazon.
Yes it's the non fuel version. Is the fuel version that much better? I was under the impression that the non fuel model is pretty good for most task and smaller in size so easier to fit in certain places.
I'm not 100% sure as mine is an older model and they've gone through some changes. But, at least for the generation of my tool the fuel version was much more powerful.
I have the plain ol' non-Fuel version, and I like it fine. It never leaves me wanting for more power and I appreciate the smaller head size, but I might upgrade to the higher speed Fuel version because the regular one is just a smidge slower than I like, but I'm also impatient. It's still one of my favorite tool.
That's good to hear I'm on the right track, lol!
Quoting myself, but think Im going to go for it, down to $139 now, and I can think of 3 projects that I can use it on:
I'm quite certain it's in-store as well, but you can also order online for pickup instore. save you the worry
back in stock again
Got a credit to use, so I have to do in store
If you want to return the battery, make sure to don't pay more than the portion you are keeping, otherwise that return will also require your ID. Something one should try to avoid
Will do, thanks!
I'd use that credit only on something you're definitely keeping.
So I ordered the M12 light with the M12 starter battery pack for $129 intending to return the batteries so the light would be about $45, but when I went to pick up today, HD said I could not return just the battery starter kit. So for me, at least at my HD, the deal was not hackable. I don’t really need more batteries and have a small pile of chargers. I returned everything and will wait for another deal on the M12 light.
It has to have the red free battery/free tool symbol in the upper left corner to be hackable. If it has a big + sign in the add, it’s not hackable. And like the previous poster said, it has to ring up with two sku’s with a discounted price for each item.
Thanks for the heads up ATC, I jumped on for the batteries also!Picked this up. Mainly wanted the 6.0 batteries for my M12 Hatchet, but I think I will get some good use out of the light as well
