Noticed the guy who does my HVAC work had nearly all 12V Max tools on his truck. When I asked him about it he couldn’t say enough good things about them. He owns the company and says he’s going all 12V on his service trucks but keeps a few 18V’s around for installs. He mentioned price and weight as big factors. I know this isn’t really news, but it’s the first time I’ve seen a professional outfitted entirely with 12V tools. Just thought I would share.
Oh, and as information I only melted a transformer on my AC. $82 to fix it. Could have been a lot worse!
Glad you got sorted Pal. 😀
I am not surprised that some guys are going all12v.
If the application is light enough then i would think it makes good sense.
He seemed really impressed with Dewalt’s 12V Max line.
I must admit i would like to have a go for a few weeks on site with the new Dewalt range and see how they shape up.
the beauty of my job is it really sorts the men from the boys when it comes to tools because if they are not up to it they die a death in a day or two. 🙂
