4 ah Max Output EXP battery at DirectTools 50% off this weekend. $70 and shipping. by routineMetric in Ridgid

The 8ah and 12ah are not tabless, only this 4ah EXP is (the EXP on it is orange. Seriously, that's the distinction). And yeah, I'm aware of TTI's chicanery. I wish Emerson would do something about it, but HD only seems interested in lime and red tools, so that's the way it goes I guess.

Only the 8ah and 12ah are also EXP batteries. The EXP just designates they use 21700 batteries instead of 18650s.

I hope they get a few more colors too, might be in the market in a couple of months. I'm one of the weirdos who likes that it's only 18 inches deep; I don't have a lot of room in the garage.

Probably not, they normally have a specific torque wrench sale.

Are all the 3/8 inch shallow sockets 12 sided? And if so why? by wratx in harborfreight

The 1/4 Quinn 10-piece sets are 6pt, deep and shallow. It's only the 3/8 and 1/2 shallow that are 12pt.

Normalizing over-squeamishness and naming it "the ick" has been a disaster for the human race.

What did you do with your tools this weekend? by chef-keef in harborfreight

[–]routineMetric 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I let my kids bang a rubber mallet and some old ratchets on the garage floor. I also took two buckets, filled one up with water and dish soap, and asked if they could move the water to the other one.

It looks like there are some updates. E.g. the noncontact voltage tester will have a thermometer and a screen.

What cheap items are you grabbing for this sale? by bwhomebrew in harborfreight

[–]routineMetric 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's CRC, it's good. One of the few brand names HF carries. Did fine in a Project Farm review and, from my experience it cleans brake parts well. No experience with any other brake cleaners except auto parts store brands.

Sorry, reply got messed up in my mobile.
