I am sick to death of checking back every two days to see if they have come out with the next step in 20volt tools to add to my collection, the picture was brought out too early if they are not going to give everyone a freaking taste. Very Maddening

If you are a fan of Dewalt on Facebook, there’s apparently a launch event at Disney Hollywood Studios tomorrow and tehy will be posting updates starting around 2ET.

57% more runtime with a brushless motor compared to a 20v Max brushed motor.

Keep an eye on DeWALTTech @ Twitter for live updates.

(this topic should be in the “new power tools” section I think)

Mr. YellowMember since Jan 2011Feb 7, 2012 1:49 PM CT

Looks like all the tools that have been posted here the last weeks.

No sign of the new radio/charger, but the dual charger is there.

For those of us people who do not have any 12 or 18 volt tools and for the newer generation of professionals, It sure would be nice to have a radio that was compatible with one of the dozen 20v batteries sitting in our trucks, I for one am not spending money on a radio and having to buy another different style battery to listen to music when I’m in the middle of nowhere, get your $hit together DeWALT…

Nice catch… probably should not have been in that picture! Sorry I cannot comment on what it is until the press release comes out.

Keep in mind the announcement this week was for front half new products. There are more tools planned for release the second half of the year.

Dewalt already has a 12v thermometer out so i doubt thats what is

burlguyMember since Jul 2011Feb 10, 2012 4:55 PM CT

Do I see a 36v brushless line out there?…… A guy can dream, cant he.

Mr. YellowMember since Jan 2011Feb 10, 2012 5:25 PM CT

36v MAX brushless line with 4.0Ah batteries. Sign me up!

I will be more than happy to test it and put it through its paces. I certainly hope it becomes a reality and is more reliable than the first couple years of the 36v set. I got the money in hand.
