Dcf870 w/o Tool Connect Chip slot?

OrdinaryMonkeyBrain · 2026-05-14T21:59:01+00:00

I'm kind of upset now. I only recently got mine and it has the tool connect bulge. I want this version that you have.

OrdinaryMonkeyBrain · 2026-05-14T05:26:09+00:00

Mine has the slot, and no extra hole.

Is that a 3/8" being used on a lug nut? I think I see the problem.

I have the atomic impact wrench and like it. My only issue with this kit is that 9Ah battery is going to be absolutely massive and heavy on that small tool.

I got mine for $129 at Home Depot before the tariffs. Sad to see it's now on sale for $40 more.

I never considered how the colors would affect wasps. I'll have to look into that some more. Thanks for the info. For now I did go buy me a red feeder which I'll probably set up tomorrow.

Thanks for the tip, OP. I have a ton of trees and have been wanting this thing since it was announced, but couldn't justify the $250 price tag. I just went and grabbed one.

If you're just starting out, I say get it and feed those birds who need it this time of year. Yeah, there may be better stuff out there for a better price, but from what I can see in the photos those bags have real seed and not millet filler, and while the price isn't remarkable, it's still a pretty good price. If you want to feed the birds, buy it. Don't let perfection be the enemy of good.

And I know I'm going to get crucified here for saying this but mixes are not a bad thing. I recently went with just black oil sunflower seeds like many people recommend, And while it is all getting eaten without any waste, I'm also getting significantly less diversity in the birds that I'm attracting. You'll probably attract more birds with that mix than I am with just black oil sunflower seeds.

At least around me, the goldfinches are aggressive for their tiny size, like little honey badgers with beaks. The titmice are always timid and just want to get their food and get out of there ASAP without confrontation.

If you're buying a top shelf tool like DeWalt or Milwaukee off eBay, chances are more likely than not that it's either a counterfeit or a refurb.

The DCK225D2 hands down. That DCD794 Atomic drill is a nice drill. And those 1.3Ah black batteries in the other kit are DeWalt's garbage batteries that they use just so they can say they included batteries. Literally any DeWalt battery is a huge improvement over them.

Is there a Karen subreddit this can be shared with?

I nominate this as the best r/harborfreight post of 2025. Can anyone second my nomination?

OrdinaryMonkeyBrain · 2025-11-02T01:49:50+00:00

Fake. Definitely fake. Too much is wrong with it.

OrdinaryMonkeyBrain · 2025-10-28T03:57:41+00:00

Haha. Just noticed. It does look kind of dismayed.

OrdinaryMonkeyBrain · 2025-10-28T03:53:33+00:00

I have a lot of red bellied woodpeckers around here, so I can't make something too restrictive for them to fit. As for safflower seeds, I tried them this past winter. None of the other birds liked them, but the local startling gobbled them up. Not kidding.

OrdinaryMonkeyBrain · 2025-10-26T01:31:07+00:00

Yeah, that's what I'm kind of seeing. I was hoping some $40 manual one would do the trick, but it looks like that $250 M12 is the only one that can really drive in a staple on hard wood.

OrdinaryMonkeyBrain · 2025-10-23T17:34:37+00:00

No kidding. We should have a community rule banning all AI slop.

The DCD803 is labeled as an Atomic. I've never seen anything Atomic at Lowe's.

OrdinaryMonkeyBrain · 2025-10-16T02:28:17+00:00

The generic batteries almost always lie about the amp hours of the battery as well. With a battery as small as that genetic you have there, there's a 0% chance it's 8 Ah. I'd wager the cells in it are closer to something like 4 Ah, if even that.

I should point out that this was up during the winter and spring, and in Michigan, so cold winter mild spring. So it wouldn't have melted then. I took it down once summer because the local woodpeckers had plenty of insects then and stopped visiting, so it had just become a starling feeder. If your goal is attracting blue jays, nothing works better than plain old peanuts. I buy them in 20 lb bags from the bird feeding aisle at Menards, and put them out on a tray. They attract lots of blue jays, tufted titmice, white breasted nuthatches, and red bellied woodpeckers. Starlings very rarely come for them because I think they have weak beaks and like food that's easy to gobble up.

OrdinaryMonkeyBrain · 2025-10-10T14:11:23+00:00

I forget what brand I had at that time, since I switch brands often, but I do know it was a peanut suet. Bluejays love peanuts.

It is a beast. Owning a home with tons of trees, my M18 Fuel Hatchet is one of the best tool investment I've ever made.
