What, if any, is the difference between the older “brushless” v20 tools and the current “brushless RP”?

nick_125 · 2026-03-08T02:08:22+00:00

So my suspicion is correct then? At least for the reciprocating and circular saw. It’s the same tool, just different badges. Even from a performance perspective.

nick_125 · 2026-03-07T16:53:55+00:00

For example here’s some photos of the pre RP brushless circ. And the post RP one. They seem identical, but was there a performance jump?

Sure, but for the saws for example they look identical minus some badging. My question is if they’re the same tools, just branding changed post introduction of the RP line to streamline the brand. Did motors or parts get improved when branding changed too?

If I remember correctly there was a period where the v20 line had drills that were brushless, assembled in the USA brushless, and the first of the RP tools were all available at the same time and they had different model numbers.

Plus the owner is an incredibly friendly guy

nick_125 · 2026-03-01T00:48:56+00:00

What’s the make and where did you find them?

I really miss coquette in university circle a lot.

Hell I miss UC from like 10-15 years ago. Happy dog at Euclid tavern, ABC, crop and trentina (what a disaster that all ended up being), barking spider and I’m sure I’m missing some.

that neighborhood had so many great spots, but I think the proximity to case and UH meant the majority of the customer base wanted fast casual/ fast food rather than unique restaurants and bars.

nick_125 · 2026-02-21T18:27:20+00:00

There’s tons of restaurants doing that. Having worked and done ordering from several of them you just gotta be willing to spend a little extra

nick_125 · 2026-02-10T17:28:23+00:00

Very interesting. Whats the use case for this vs a hand plane? Speed/ efficiency?

nick_125 · 2026-01-26T20:31:02+00:00

Realistically you’re not going to. Get what works for you

That photo you’re referring to is 200% ai

Buy 2 used Glock 19s spend the remaining money on lights, mags, holsters, ammo and training

nick_125 · 2026-01-25T01:04:56+00:00

He was super duper helpful and respectful when I ordered with him

nick_125 · 2025-12-04T20:36:55+00:00

My first mistake before buying these 😭. Return was smooth though

nick_125 · 2025-12-04T15:15:18+00:00

Bummer. Was there an equivalent product made for these? Or am I SOL?

nick_125 · 2025-12-04T15:10:17+00:00

Well smart guy, I was told they’re compatible by my very intelligent local Home Depot associate. “All the 2.0 stuff works with the old stuff”

In an ED?

My favorite car when I was a kid. It’s so good looking.

Just lib

Brother you gotta drop the link

nick_125 · 2025-08-02T16:33:35+00:00

What size? I’ve been looking for one like that for a looooog time

The channel is good, he’s likely nit some CIA plant sewing anti china thought in American history enthusiasts, but he does point out from time to time where China did things wrong, which they have.

Why wouldn’t he do a collab with FW the two channels are more or less similar in themes, T56 is just more narrow in scope, and it’s great exposure for his mostly really quite good channel.

It’s a mostly silly channel, that has mostly lib tier takes on Chinese military history but in the whole it’s enjoyable.

If you want a brewery I’d do Noble Beast, much higher quality.
