I'll wait until black Friday. The best offer is when you buy a starter kit. You get to choose 1 free tool for 199. Pick two free tools for 299 or higher price kit.
The difference between Milwaukee 18 V and DeWalt 20 V tools is kind of a lie by DeWalt. They both have the same number of LiOn cells. Milwaukee uses the nominal voltage rating of the battery and DeWalt uses the max charged voltage.
@EfficientRVer yea really. Also no1 talks bout how 12v tools are only 10.8v but dewalt says max while milwaukee doesnt. And dewalt aint the only 1 doing max rating but i guess they were first hence the hate
@@EfficientRVeryes but just because you and I have been around for years doesn’t mean everyone has. New people enter the tool market every day. And to the guy who just started yesterday this might be new information.
Its “hackable” any time you add to cart and it splits the total across the individual items. Make no mistake, this isn’t taking advantage of home depot. We are talking about a company worth hundreds of billions of dollars. They are not stupid, and it has become obvious they are using it to their advantage. Win-win in my personal opinion.
I think he meant he didn’t look into whether these kits had alternate product pages that are hackable obviously the pages shown aren’t hackable. It’s only the free gift versions that are. But HD usually has non hackable versions of thier hackable deals for some reason. Case in point, the m12 drill deal for 169 is hackable if you go to the right product page and choose the ratchet as the free gift.
They used too much of the silicone over molding in that spot and it was putting pressue on the led strip causing it to cut out. I just took it out, let it expand and cut it to fit.
The m12 stubby on sale, I wouldn't buy it, I know its great but the new gen releases in a few weeks with double the ft lbs for the same base price of $200! If you're in the market and can wait a while, do so!!!
Tbh I think it’s more of the batteries that come with it that makes it a great deal, but yeah I’m on your side, patiently waiting for it too, thing will be sweet
None of these deals compare to the HF Hercules deals you posted - got that $180 high torque long anvil torque wrench for $50 (with 2nd tool for $50 also) and also the two 8Ah 20V batteries for $100. That deal is still going on. Also got a Bauer 20V brushless cordless SDS+ rotary hammer for $30, and went to eBay to grab some Hercules-to-Bauer battery adapters (and a Hercules to Ridgid adapter also) so I can use those Hercules batteries with the lone Bauer tool. Currently in 4 battery ecosystems - Ridgid, Ryobi, Flex, and Hercules, don't need another!
I just bought the Milwaukee M12 stubby with battery combo. I wanted to wait on the new stubby with 500ft lb but this was such a good deal with two batteries I couldn’t pass it up. Thanks for sharing about it!
Any of the Ryobi batts with the gray accents are the HP line. That deal with the Ryobi Die Grinder and like 19 batteries is awesome, 😆. Also, the Red M12 rotary tool is a freaking MONSTER. My fave "Dremel" of all time.
Ridgid LSA, I just filled two claims. It took them two tries to fix a faulty switch. It’s fixed, so I guess it worked. I didn’t have to pay for any shipping, I’m glad I have spare tools when it’s done for repairs.
I got the surge w/ 4ah and 2ah for $97 via the hack and also the 3/8 stubby with a 4ah and 2ah batteries for like $110 via hack. Building up my m12 collection for a pretty good price... got the m12 dremel tool for like $50 with the hack awhile back, installation driver kit for like $110 with hack etc... good stuff!
I have a Ridgid 21 degree 18v cordless framing nailer and like it a lot. It's probably as heavy as the Milwaukee but unlike the Milwaukee, it has a schraeder valve where you can top it off with compressed air if it needs it, similar to the Senco. Has plenty of power for sure.
The surge with the ratchet that he mentions hackable or not is not. The pages that display a “+” is not the same as “free gift”. Basically to see yes/no is add it to cart, the whole package will show as one item. When it’s a free gift deal when you add to cart it will show as two items then it is
I have the ridgid line of battery powered nailers and I love them. I don't use them as much as I did the pneumatic because my work load is lower but they have performed great. As far as batteries I've transitioned over to the max output line. Far better than the standard batteries but not as good as the "Octane" line IMO.
Great info, Bear. But even on sale, those prices are too high & seem to be aimed at pros rather than DIYers, like me. I mean, drive over to the nearest HD to grab an occasional use $280 impact wrench? I think a lot of us DIYers are willing to give up some quality on Amazon (though some are 4/12 stars with 0000's of reviews) to get a no-name for < $100.
I wasn't going to chime in on this until I saw the first Ryobi offer. That kit with the standard (not HP) 4ah and 2ah batteries with a charger is normally $99. Sure, during Ryobi Days it was 99 but WITH a free tool. Point being, it's $99 regularly while the HD website is showing it "marked down" from $203.94. There's no way, NO WAY that kit was ever that much! Which proves my theory that HD makes up ridiculous numbers before being "marked down" for a high percentage off. Cmon HD!
They are going off of manufacturer's suggested retail prices for the biggest % OFF deal they can list but they never sell these tools at suggested retail so it's not really as good a deal. Most of these look like regular prices to me. Just marketing gimmicks.
@JustNobodyButME Yeah, I think these are legit deals just not as good as HD claims. Maybe $20-40 off their regular prices. Lol. Like, the Ryobi starter kit that started my initial comment is now $79 vs $99 for instance.
I got the saw, 3" I'm going to make a fence using pvc pipe. I feel like I paid around the normal price at $179.00 , Acme with tax and $6 shipping was $200 exactly. It's a decent deal , but not 40 or 60% I feel like they really inflated those base prices. $400, never saw that price. The 3/8th impact is a little work horse. Id say only if you need it. Keep your money if you don't
The thieves and HD's piss poor remedy to it have made tool shopping near impossible, wait 20 mins for someone to come unlock the cage, pull the item(s), then wait in line while that person totes the tools to the checkout person, then wait for the one live person checking out to sort through the tools they have been brought for the ones you want, only to play the game with the door alarms because they didn't deactivate all of the anti-theft devices in the package. I understand they need to respond to thievery, but if the remedy turns a 5 minute run for X into close to an hour... it's just not worth it any more.
I bought the Ridgid 18 gauge brad nailer about 6 months ago. I'm not happy. Every few shots it refuses to fire for some inexplicable error. Enough of a hassle to go back to the air brad nailer when in the shop. I still lug the unreliable bass turd around the house, though. Just my recent experience.
I've got the DeWalt 20v system, 2 5ah XR batteries for $150 not long ago. Went Milwaukee M12 on a Screwdriver for $80 and an M12 Fuel Hackzall for $150 with a 4ah battery. M18 Fuel Polesaw with 5ah battery Is going for $269. HF has a Bauer leaf blower for $99 with 2 5ah batteries. Not into Bauer though.
Hello again, Jeff and Mrs. Bear 🐻 Thank you for another Great Video 👍 Now you done it, I have to go to Home Depot. And I think you said the 22nd there starting Labor Day sales 😅. Again thank you
this sale , like all other sales except for the christmas stuff , is only available on line , at least when it comes to Ryobi tools , none in stock at my local store ... ever .
i have a ton of m18 tools i have NEVER bought a battery by itself.. always wait for the free battery or bundle deals. the batteries are insanely expensive by themselves. Those milwaukee deals are basically buy batteries get a tool free since the 2x6.0ahs and the charger kit is 270 alone. throwing in a jigsaw or the inflator for free. That's how they're calculating it as a discount.
I have a cordless Ridgid framing nailer. It worked good for a box of nails and then started constantly jamming afterwards. Should have bought a paslode.
Weird thing is if i just go through my Home Depot app I cannot find the Milwaukee die grinder, ratchet, battery, and charger deal anywhere. Then I click the link, app opens, and it’s there. Strange.
The product pages shown here aren’t hackable but some tools might have hackable versions of the same deal. For example the m12 drill kit for 169 has another product page where you get to choose the free tool you want. The ratchet shown is the most expensive and drives the price of the drill bats charger and case down to $89. That’s a pretty great deal for the top of the line m12 drill a 4 and a 2. That drill is super compact too.
Snapon is of course the leader in that market but Milwaukee has taken a huge market share away from them. Dewalt woke up about two years ago and started to really compete especially as MAC who is also owned by SBD started carrying Dewalt tools on their trucks.
Jeff - I sell used hand tools for past two years. Today I had a ‘Buyer’ on FB marketplace reach out and elaborate on what is a warranty scam that blew my innocent fragile mind. I am seriously disturbed by it. I am not typing it out cause - bad. There are people that are going to ruin the warranty process for rest of us.
That power stack kit has both the small battery and the 5AH, not just two small ones. That was a good deal. I haven't tried the 5ah one yet. I will add it to my collection tho
@@GannDolph I agree, in comparison videos and seeing it locked in a case at the store, I can tell. I remember thinking it shouldn't be that much bigger then the 1.7 and it was a turn off with the size difference. I still want one just to say I have it.
@@PDillz i think torque test channel found it takes up more volume than the 5Ah XR pack, and may even have weighed more. I havent taken one apart yet, but I'm guessing the unexpected excess bulk and weight is created by all kinds of puncture protection - since pouch cells lack the inherent puncture resistance that cylindrical cells have.
I'm not impressed with the Ryobi sale. I already have half a dozen chargers and even more 4 AH batteries. All I want are the actual tools themselves at a really good price.
Is it just me or is this really not much of a DeWalt sale? Everyone of those tools is usually about $250 as a complete tool/battery/charger combo. With normal batteries, of course. Feels like they added a Power Stack battery to the normal kits, left price alone and called it a sale lol
QUESTION..are the current ryobi tools when you get the battery deal, a better deal than ryobi deals a month ago whne you could get a tool then either the starter and the other higher output battery kits?
What makes you think they could do that? Do you have special insight into the manufacturing process as well as their financials love to hear this explanation
My Bosch from the 80s will still run. The first Dewalt 18v driil that came out still works. Tried some Milwaukee tools, three are broken in about a year. As far batteries, they who use the best cells perform the best.
@@aayotechnology the mini band saw has a new screw holing it together. Have not replaced yet. 12v driver, back to Dewalt 12v driver. 2 proximity voltage testers broke on exactly same place. Back to fluke. Oh, the belt clip broke on my rechargeable flashlight, but will have to live with that on pocket. Coast belt clip is better but not the light itself.
The Milwaukee deals aren’t so great. I got better deals for bare tools off Amazon. You usually have to wait longer even with Prime, and they often cancel your order even though they claimed to have it in stock. As far as batteries, I can’t tell the difference between Milwaukee and 3rd party brands, so I only buy 3rd party now.
So there's 74 comments here so hopefully you see this. This is with regards to your video one paid reviews. Back story. I bought a cheap pair of binoculars on Amazon a couple weeks ago. Today I got a post card in the mail from the seller asking me to give a 5 star review in return I would get a gift or be put on their "try this " list. How in the world did they get my mailing address?
I've received offers like that too, it always seems to be from a small chinese seller. It really sours me on their entire brand and makes me question the integrity of other reviews, thinking that they are secretly paid for and dishonest.
Some deals let you choose a free tool or battery when you buy a kit or tool. This gets priced on the receipt as two separate items. You can then return one and get a portion of the money back. For example the m12 drill and ratchet combo shown for 169 has an alternate product page where you buy the drill battery and charger kit for 169 and you get to pick a free tool. The ratchet is the most expensive so if you pick that the recipe will show the drill kit as $90 and the ratchet as 80. You can then return either the kit or the ratchet and get that money back if you only wanted one of them. This would be a great price for that drill kit for $90 when it’s normally $169. So do you want the ratchet or do you want to save $80? That’s what we call “hackable.” And sometimes they are packed together as a inseparable kit that shows as one item on the receipt / shopping cart. as the product page shown in this video. Those are not hackable.
@@CarlYota or you could buy the tool you want that is broken from eBay for 1/4 of the store price or even lower. Then buy a brand new identical tool online or Home Depot or any other retailer. Step 3 is, you swap the innards and return the new one as defective for a full cash refund. I heard a friend of a friend, who did that, calls it a DIY warranty. 🤑
I miss when you were a talking bear lol
He still is!! 🐻
The cigar added to the charm and appeal.
I like it better this way I'm sorry. The bear made me feel some weird type of way
You're not wrong 🐻, but there a type of amusement that's missing now imagining an actual bear playing with tools in its den.
Bring back the bear!
Sir, for the working class/blue collar class you are saving us time and money by making these videos. 🙏 thank you
I'll save you some more money, almost all of these tools are cheaper on Amazon. some of them are a whole lot cheaper.
I ended up getting two ratchets, 3 moving blankets, the standing shop fan, and the tool chest. Was a great day.
I'll wait until black Friday.
The best offer is when you buy a starter kit. You get to choose 1 free tool for 199.
Pick two free tools for 299 or higher price kit.
You better not tell my dad about those Milwaukee deals, he will go broke and buy them all 😂

You just noticed that.
Anything ends with 0
20v -18v
40v- 36v
60v - 56v
80v - 72v
24v actually has one more cell than the 18v
This was news 15 years ago
Favorite deals? Hercules 2 8Ah batteries for $99. Glad to be reminded why I switched from yellow to blue.
Nothing wrong with a left-facing circ saw. Southpaw carpenters appreciate NOT eating sawdust with every cut.
Dang tools are expensive, even 40% off
Its “hackable” any time you add to cart and it splits the total across the individual items. Make no mistake, this isn’t taking advantage of home depot.

Home Depot Labor Day sale starts 8/22. You are correct.
Whoa! Just noticed the duel link listing's - 1st in order of presentation, 2nd by Brand name! Awesome, Bear - uh, Jeff...
I’m still buying my icon ratchets 40 percent off up to 4 lol
Hell of a deal! I love my icon ratchets! What ones did you get?
Outstanding ratchets !
@@DamascusBurrito all 3/8 models so going back for a 1/2

Damn, everything I wanted was already sold out. Next time I'll pull over on the side of the road and purchase.
I picked up two Ryobi pack out drawer system for 30 dollars each.
Regular price is 119 each.
That makes it 75% off.
I have the Ridgid 18v 21° framing nailer, it’s a beast. Built my house and barn with it. Only complaint, it’s HEAVY for all day use.

Very informative. Although, my wife doesn’t like me watching your channel because I buy tools. 😂
That m12 brushless rotary is a steal for $100

Kind of sucks when you have most of the items listed in one form or another!!! 😢
The home depot in Toledo, Ohio did not have any tools on sale fore labor day or anything else. I was just there 9/2'2924.
Do you know if Lowe's has a sale like this ?
Great sales for this time of year...Thanks Red !
Milwaukee inflator- $269 is outrageous for starters so those batteries at $100 a piece just doesn’t sound like a deal
I have that Milwaukee inflator and its robust.
The thieves and HD's piss poor remedy to it have made tool shopping near impossible, wait 20 mins for someone to come unlock the cage, pull the item(s), then wait in line while that person totes the tools to the checkout person, then wait for the one live person checking out to sort through the tools they have been brought for the ones you want, only to play the game with the door alarms because they didn't deactivate all of the anti-theft devices in the package.

for automotive use who sells the most tools for mechanics of the big 4
Snapon is of course the leader in that market but Milwaukee has taken a huge market share away from them. Dewalt woke up about two years ago and started to really compete especially as MAC who is also owned by SBD started carrying Dewalt tools on their trucks.
So . . . . . . . . . I "may" have just purchased the Milwaukee Hackzall kit.
Yeah ..
Not sure if anyone mentioned this in the comments, but that Ryobi starter kit is a 2Ah & a 4Ah, not two 4’s. Kind of a piss-poor deal, if you ask me…
Jeff - I sell used hand tools for past two years.
Today I had a ‘Buyer’ on FB marketplace reach out and elaborate on what is a warranty scam that blew my innocent fragile mind.
I am seriously disturbed by it. I am not typing it out cause - bad.
There are people that are going to ruin the warranty process for rest of us.
It would have been nice to note how the prices compared to Ryobi Days.
Could anyone tell me how to tell when the sale ends? I couldn't find anything on the Home Depot site.
That power stack kit has both the small battery and the 5AH, not just two small ones. That was a good deal. I haven't tried the 5ah one yet. I will add it to my collection tho
It's nice but it's friggin huge. If you already have 1.7aH powerstack, then when you unbox your first 5ah powerstack you be like "wtf??"

7:16 "Is this hackable?"
What does that mean in the context of Milwaukee power tools?
What if I don't need an extra charger and more batteries? Can you buy just the tools on sale too?
Do you know who sales a handheld chain saw, in your travels? I watch several utube videos and they would be something to own, maybe a future review.
do you know the history of the popular rotary cutting tools like the dewalt it all started with rorozip very interesting story how it came to be
Do tell....
Well Dremel invented the rotary tool, Rotozip invented a version specifically for drywall.
Thanks for the deals .. love to see it ..
Just seems strange to me both HD and Lowe's both on this big Dewalt kick.
the Ryobi ratchet the battery design is the deal breaker for me.
Wow some absolutely great deals Thanks for sharing
Does the DeWalt Powerstack battery work with Craftsman 20V (those are my CORE tools)
Good rule of thumb, cross brand is no go unless using an adapter, typically made by a third party.
@@whirledpeaz5758 But B&D owns BOTH and others have said they are Compatible, I was asking DofT to weigh in. But thanks
Is it just me or is this really not much of a DeWalt sale? Everyone of those tools is usually about $250 as a complete tool/battery/charger combo. With normal batteries, of course. Feels like they added a Power Stack battery to the normal kits, left price alone and called it a sale lol
You got the "T" fixed on your sign!
Yeah, the over molding was too long and they forced it in there and that was breaking a solder point.
QUESTION..are the current ryobi tools when you get the battery deal, a better deal than ryobi deals a month ago whne you could get a tool then either the starter and the other higher output battery kits?
got a milwaukee m18 7 tool kit at 50% off yesterday ( M18 18-Volt Lithium-Ion Cordless Combo Kit 7-Tool with 2-Batteries, Charger and Tool Bag)
My favorite deals happened before 2021.
These deals SUCK! Bring on black Fri!
Sad part is they could sell this stuff at these prices ALL THE TIME and still make money. Getting excited about these prices is quite silly.
What makes you think they could do that? Do you have special insight into the manufacturing process as well as their financials love to hear this explanation
My Bosch from the 80s will still run. The first Dewalt 18v driil that came out still works. Tried some Milwaukee tools, three are broken in about a year. As far batteries, they who use the best cells perform the best.
So what did you replace the Milwaukee with?
@@aayotechnology the mini band saw has a new screw holing it together. Have not replaced yet. 12v driver, back to Dewalt 12v driver. 2 proximity voltage testers broke on exactly same place. Back to fluke. Oh, the belt clip broke on my rechargeable flashlight, but will have to live with that on pocket. Coast belt clip is better but not the light itself.
I'm not seeing any deals, looks like they marked up msrp and gave a discount to what regular price was😅
Prices are still way too high. No sale for me.😢😢😢.
The Milwaukee deals aren’t so great. I got better deals for bare tools off Amazon. You usually have to wait longer even with Prime, and they often cancel your order even though they claimed to have it in stock. As far as batteries, I can’t tell the difference between Milwaukee and 3rd party brands, so I only buy 3rd party now.
by the way these are all online orders only.
So there's 74 comments here so hopefully you see this. This is with regards to your video one paid reviews. Back story. I bought a cheap pair of binoculars on Amazon a couple weeks ago. Today I got a post card in the mail from the seller asking me to give a 5 star review in return I would get a gift or be put on their "try this " list. How in the world did they get my mailing address?
Something must have changed over at Amazon because previously they did not share the contact information of the buyer with the seller
@@denoftools Oh I forgot to add. They said not to post a picture of the postcard in the review.
I've received offers like that too, it always seems to be from a small chinese seller. It really sours me on their entire brand and makes me question the integrity of other reviews, thinking that they are secretly paid for and dishonest.
Any deals on the larger m12 batteries 3mah and up?
I didn’t see anything that jumped out at me bought again. Their big Labor Day sale is going to start on or around the 22nd.
These are not deals. They do this year round.
Any idea on how long this sale is good for?
No, sorry.
Do you not cover the Ridgid outdoor power tools ?
I didn't see any over 40% off.
@@denoftools Ridgid blower and weedeater combo 53% off
Oops, never mind that sale was evidently
for one day only , sorry about that 😕 😐
Things on sale all year around? What???
What did he mean by hackable?
On some BOGO type deals return one and get a bigger discount on the other items. I have a video about it on the channel.
Some deals let you choose a free tool or battery when you buy a kit or tool. This gets priced on the receipt as two separate items. You can then return one and get a portion of the money back.
For example the m12 drill and ratchet combo shown for 169 has an alternate product page where you buy the drill battery and charger kit for 169 and you get to pick a free tool. The ratchet is the most expensive so if you pick that the recipe will show the drill kit as $90 and the ratchet as 80. You can then return either the kit or the ratchet and get that money back if you only wanted one of them. This would be a great price for that drill kit for $90 when it’s normally $169. So do you want the ratchet or do you want to save $80?
That’s what we call “hackable.” And sometimes they are packed together as a inseparable kit that shows as one item on the receipt / shopping cart. as the product page shown in this video. Those are not hackable.
@@CarlYota or you could buy the tool you want that is broken from eBay for 1/4 of the store price or even lower. Then buy a brand new identical tool online or Home Depot or any other retailer. Step 3 is, you swap the innards and return the new one as defective for a full cash refund. I heard a friend of a friend, who did that, calls it a DIY warranty. 🤑
@@vadimbellous8313Most jurisdictions call this fraud.
Dewalt 60v Grinder only 199 cheaper than rigid $200+ "deal"
