Just wondering if anyone has insider information on an event from Dewalt this year? If I recall correctly, they usually come around June (Tough in the South, Flexvolt announcement) but someone can correct me if I’m wrong.
my best guess is summer but I wouldn’t throw out July and August just yet. Last year The tough in the south event was in August and there was no June event. 2 years ago the event was in June. I’m sure everyone has a list of things they want to see at it but I wonder what can realistically expect at the event.
My guess at least one new battery nailer, at least one or two other 20v tools, and at least one or two flexvolt tools. Maybe they will have a couple tools that they just pulled out of nowhere that no one was expecting.
I checked their website and looks like there is a “DeWALT Technology Tour” going on in various locations in the USA throughout the year.

That’s a great option but I would also like to see them make the dust extractor communicate with the tool connect tag and other bluetooth tools for automatic start. That would pobably attract more users to their tool connect thing.The.Handyman wrote:

Dewalt just released 3 new Dust Extractor, rather must say 3x Shop Vac; wet -n- dry
no “technology”
all CORDED
no cordless option
no bluetooth option
it is what it is
anyway, the release was a surprise
Yeah I saw that but as stated in the post, they looks more like a high end homeowner/diy line of extractors. There is certainly a demand for those too but not for a guy like me [emoji16]midogrumpy wrote:

If the new “shopvac” style vacs have decent power and a good seal they may not be a bad idea for a general purpose vac for the average jobsite. I find certain other brands don’t have the best seals and will blow out dust when they first turn on.
Hope they expand Flexvolt, 10” Cordless mitre
I asked on IG about timing of a Dewalt event this year and was told August.
@Bremon I was told June 12 for the 2018 DeWALT event.

I hope you’re right lol. My impatience doesn’t want to wait the extra 60 days.
I expect tons of new stuff this time. They haven’t released anything new since the concrete saw back in january. Last fall was pretty quiet too. Last year, we were getting around two new tools per month. Hopefully the 12v rumor iys true this time 🙂
My sources have stated there will be no DeWalt event this year, just rolling releases through the year. They are done trying to show up on par with Milwaukee NPS.Bremon wrote:

We will see if I get any information from my media contact.

Daaaaaang I love when they have a big blitz of cool stuff. They totally destroyed NPS the year they revealed FlexVolt. And got a pile of money out of me for it. I like to see the future projections of a system rather than bits and pieces and crossing my fingers. Makita baaaarely got money out of me and they had to wait 5 years longer for it than red and yellow did because I wasn’t hyped enough lol.
I agree. Milwaukee is an excellent marketing machine. DeWalt is very old school, spends more advertising on Nascar and rodeos.Bremon wrote:

They also unveiled a bigger flexvolt rotary hammer. Not sure if it is out yet.
I’m hoping to see a 10” cordless miter saw this time. Been ready to pull the trigger on it for over a year…

So I just bought two power stations for work. You’re welcome, that pretty much guarantees a power station2.0 will be released soon!

Powerstation 2.0 has been whispered about for a while lol I’ve been waiting for it. I’m not sure if the rumours actually just materialized into the ToughSystem compatible fast charger (with no power station capability).

I’ve been waiting too. Just can’t wait anymore…. oh well. It’ll work as is. I really wanted to buy the 12ah to put on it but that will be July so I can’t wait for that either…
Tstack radio is now on website
Truly hope Dewalt has an event and it’s huge…it does not help companies to plan purchases if they don’t know what’s coming. I can’t imagine Dewalt would do that.
I just wish the events were more of a big deal like Milwaukee NPS. With NPS you know it happens every year and happens in May. I’d like DeWALT’s to be more consistent. I don’t like having the event in June one year then August another.
