I know you know, but did you take them up to scan?
My home store still has the ridgid 12V packs marked at $49 even though they scan at 35. I think the price change guy missed them when he was changing prices. They are located in a strange place. I am hoping nobody buys them and they go down again to $17.52.
Well, you just confirmed what I suspected, these are full of the 20R’s
I put these same packs back yesterday because they were $50—Today at a different store they were on the sale shelf not marked—So for $35 for 2 packs I said what the hoot—couldn’t comprehend how they were 4ah—my mind would only see 3 cells across the bottom—never seen cells in the neck of the pack before—anyway 12 cells for $38 and on my Opus they are testing at 2100-2130mah so far on 4 cells
FYI, here is a pic of the single pack that contains 3 Samsung 13Q’s on the right for 1.3Ah. On the left is an older double pack that contains 6 Samsumg 15M for 3Ah. The single packs can be nice in that they weigh next to nothing at all. But of course they lack any kind of capacity.
Checked New Hartford, NY and no Rigid twin packs in sight.
Might try during the week, one guy that works is real sharp and will have all the info.
He was a Sears tool man his whole life and always pointed out what you should buy and what not to buy.
According to the reviews by HKJ, the R’s are slightly better. But maybe that lies within the margin of error for just a few samples? Both will output 20A at full capacity. In a drill pack I don’t think it matters. In something like a flashlight, a little better becomes a “must have”
So I went to my local HD today to check if the Ryobi packs had dropped. They had and all 3 that were there the other day were in a cart on their way to checkout before I could get my hands on them. One guy bought all 3 sets.
So off I went to hit up some of the other stores. I found one pack sitting on a shelf unlabeled at another store and snatched it up for my father.
I then found some of the Ridgid 2 packs and picked up one pack to tear down for the high current cells.
Any idea what brand? I wondered if they were LG’s.
Also, can someone give me a short and sweet verrsion of how to get these deals at the self scan? I’ve read a lot at the front of this thread, but didn’t really see an explanation.
Thanks!
These deals for the drill packs are on, it is just that maybe every store has not updated their prices yet. elsewhere in this thread there are other deal types going on that require skill and a lot of luck.
