Re: DeWalt: 36 Volt Tools!!
Ok lets look at this from the practical standpoint, 36 volts is definetly useful sometimes, but it's way tooooo heavy to use on your average task, 18 volts are often too heavy for your average robot work. If your drilling and screwing, and doing basic fabrication like that, get a 14.4 volt drill, it's lighter and cheaper, which will lead to less fatigue and more productivity. If you are worried about battery life, take the money you saved and buy another battery! The 36 volts does give you some good applications, like with the Impact Wrench and Rotary Hammer, but come on people, what are we drilling that requires a 36 volt Drill?
What's next? They give you a car battery, with a Cim straped to a DeWalt Transmission? 18 Amps baby! It even shifts on the fly! Take that Makita!
Two things I would like to get my hands on though, are the Transmission that they got on the 36 Volt Drill and the Impact Wrench, that could lead to some good fun.
