Asking here because bepis has an autistic knowledge of power tools and deals Anything decent in the ridgid lineup for Black Friday this year? I know 2024 was all about ridgid using tabless 21700 cells in their 4ah Max output exp line But I’m just on their cheap ass brushed tools so I won’t see any benefits probably Anything else that’s a major pickup ?
>>2957693Because you called my name…The Octane and other Max Output packs have the second set of + and - contacts. The lower draw tools typically don’t have the second set of contacts to match the high demand packs. So… I have no clue.Better cells = less voltage drop under heavy loads = more powah. That’s a big ol’ bit they’re running in that test though. I don’t even care anymore. I’m currently fighting the battle to make them buy OE DeWalt packs because Chinese 9.0Ah packs are never really 9.0Ah.
>>2957711>Chinese batteries Fuck dude do we work at the same place ?! I’m the buyer for a company and they just don’t let me buy good shit… they make ass backwards decisions they will risk damaging tools to save $3 But then a “emergency “ part order where they overnight a part and leave it on a desk for a month
>>2957711And thank you for the info, I did some digging and I missed the deal… 2 of the old octane 3.0ah batteries for $49.95 which is the only battery pack from the octane line that used 21750 cells apparently? So was hoping I don’t miss on anything else since every battery I have right now is just a basic bitch 18650 cell
>>2957693Ftfy again
>>2957715> 21750Level up to the forty six eight hundo.Maybe next year, gotta buy all the in-between scams before getting to the boss level I guess.
