I'd like for Dewalt to focus more on smaller batteries. Using the same JP40 cells from the Power Pack in a 3 or 4ah compact would be a nice bridge between the 1.7 ah PS and 5 ah PS.

A compact 4ah PowerPack would be amazing.

Thanks. Could you test dcs7485?

Exactly, all these companies are coming out with huge batteries, but what's the point of using an 8ah+ battery on a finish nailer, compact drill, impact driver, oscillating tool, drywall screw gun, drywall router, cut-off tool.... At least we got the 1.7ah

I HAVE two 4 amp TABLESS CELLS one it RYOBI EDGE and the RIDGiD 4 MAX OUTPUT EXP and did some testing on my channel and they EQUAL or beat there Bigger 8 Amp 21700 cells

Always interesting to see how the different batteries perform. One thing is clear, though: Wow does the Milwaukee 2834 get through the cut with more power than the DeWalt DCS570. Mega difference.

I too was blown away by the power difference in the Milwaukee!

I'd be curious to see these results with 65-75 percent charge to see how the batteries recover......

Great video Thank you. I don't know if you're aware or not your fluke meter has a min max button which will record obviously the lowest and highest voltage. It may actually show different numbers than what you are showing because it records faster than it displays.

To me,the Best way to answer all questions would be the tripod light..I get about 4 hours with a standard 8ah battery...maybe 3.5 with the 6ah flexvolt..very curious to see how that new 8ah powerpack would fare,especially against the 9 ah flex ,or the standard 10..ahhh Dewalt-they keep us guessing...Great channel, love your reviews!!

Pouch cells give more power pound for pound and run cooler but they're more expensive

Can you do it this testing for rotary hammer ?

See that min/max button on your meter? Use it! It will store the lowest (and highest) reading during your test. Step through the readings by pressing it repeatedly.

@workshopaddict another great video ! Question, im usually a left blade rear handle guy but interested in one of these sidewinders. Which do u like best between that new milwaukee and the newest dewalt? Much appreciated in advance

@PazLeBon Ай бұрын

seems we only have left handed tools since manufacturing went to china. it hs never been normal to have a left hsnded blade, in fact it used to considered a big safety concern

Just dropped $99 + tax (to That Woman In Michigan 😅) on one of these batteries (DCB2108). I’m mainly looking for a bit more runtime over my current 5Ah battery, mostly for OPE. I didn’t realize it was a “PowerPack” and not “PowerStack”. I didn’t even know there was such a thing as PowerPack until I looked it up and found your video. Can’t help but wonder if DeWalt chose that name specifically to confuse and befuddle consumers into buying something that is posing as something else. Oh well. 😔 Hope it’s at least a genuine Dewalt and not a knockoff 😂🤞🏽

What would be interesting to see is what effect these new more powerful batteries are having on early generation 18v tools! Are they getting a new lease of life? For example non-FUEL tools with high power draw!

@minhdaubu2363 2 ай бұрын

These batteries have very little effect on earlier generation of tools since they were made to draw power from 18650 cells without damaging them cells.

@gwall1789 2 ай бұрын

They won’t fit the 18v adapter unless you cut the ears off. The adapter will only take up to 5Ah, probably because anything higher will cause a thermal event.

I’ve been waiting for this kind of test. I’ll stick with my 9Ah FlexVolts until they’re discontinued (which I think is coming sooner than most people think). By then the PowerPacks should come down in price a little.
