![]() If you want the jigsaw and don't need the battery, just sell the powerstack starter kit. At that capacity, it might actually be worth checking out. Well, eager to see everything except the price. And I am also eager to see the new 5Ah powerstack. But for the vast majority of us, powerstack is pointless (from a cost/benefit analysis).ĭon't get me wrong. If you are a pro, or otherwise really using a tool to the limits of its performance envelope, AND space is constrained, AND price is no object, then sure, the powerstack might *almost* make sense. And I can hardly tell the battery is there-it's not too heavy or bulky. Not only because it has less juice (1.7), but also because it will be using it as fast or FASTER (that's how they get the increased performance).Įven from a 2Ah, I get plenty of power out of my tools to do everything I need. Indeed, under almost every circumstance, it will won't last nearly as long as a 2.0Ah battery. The DEWALT DCBP034-XJ 18V XR Compact Powerstack Battery is a small but highly powerful compact battery compatible with all 18V tools, with 50 more power. ![]() And any claim that the powerstack has LONGER battery life is an outright lie. $35 for a battery and charger is a damn good deal but I already have six 2ah, two 4ah, four 5ah, one 6ah, and two 8ah so I might just be spending extra money for something that's inferior to over half my batteries as is.Īm I missing some fancy features or is dewalt just over hyping these things? Amazon has it on sale for $165 but HD has it for $200 with a free powerstack starter kit. Plus, the barrel grip style adds variety. ![]() I dont necessarily need it because I have a perfectly fine dewalt top handle jigsaw but it's not cordless and the only hand-held power tool I ever have to plug in. Engineered to get into tight spaces without sacrificing performance, our most. This battery features an impact-resistant, rubber overmold base and utilizes revolutionary pouch cell battery technology to provide twice the lifetime. ![]() I only ask because I'm going to buy the brushless barrel grip jigsaw. The DEWALT POWERSTACK 20V MAX Compact Battery is 50 more powerful, 25 more compact, and 15 lighter. I've only half ass researched them so forgive my laziness and ignorance but as far as I can tell the only advantage is it's compact size and it's slightly more powerful compared to the 2.0ah lithium ion? It seems the only powerstack available so far is 1.7ah so wouldn't it be next to useless in most larger tools? ![]()
