DeWALT PowerStack Clearly Outperforms HUGE FlexVolt Lithium Ion Battery!

Yup. Same reason Milwaukee is having deals on the XC5.0 and includes the XC5.0 in the kits. Too many of them, and the CP3.0 HO battery actually has the same power in a lighter package.

It brings exactly zero noticeable difference other than shorter run time. I have never seen a 2 amp outperform a 4 amp both in the same voltage. It is a marketing scheme and nothing can beat the versatility of 4 and 5 amps for daily 20v use (unless you don't use it professionally then who cares).
