Acme Tools Shipping DeWalt FlexVolt Tools
Acme Tools estimated ship date for the new FlexVolt tools is September 1st, 2016.
The FlexVolt battery powers a new lineup of brushless 60V Max and 120V Max FlexVolt tools. The innovative technology is backwards compatible with most existing DeWalt 20V Max tools and chargers. The FlexVolt battery provides up to 4X runtime and more than 3X battery power versus DeWalt 18V NiCad. Of course, if you’re still using NiCad batteries you really need to upgrade!
The key to this technology is the ability of the FlexVolt battery to switch between DeWalt tools of varying voltages whether it be 20V Max, 60V Max or 120V Max. Two FlexVolt batteries together power the new DeWalt 120V Max tools meaning that high power tool applications that previously could only be accomplished by corded tools can now be performed with the new FlexVolt system of cordless tools. This advanced battery technology will allow for the full transition to cordless tools on construction jobsites.
The FlexVolt battery powers five new 60V Max tools and two new 120V Max tools. The new 60V Max FlexVolt brushless tools include a 7-1/4″ circular saw, 4-1/2″-6″ grinder, reciprocating saw, 1/2″ VSR stud and joist drill and 8-1/4″ table saw. The new 120V Max tools are a 12″ fixed head compound miter saw and 12″ sliding compound miter saw.
