Not true. I've registered a brad nailer and a light panel bought from Direct Tools.

Wrong. DTO is an "authorized retailer."

Good deal, this was $89 last week but with the *free* 2ah battery. I was hoping for the price drop, got plenty of batteries.

Sigh. Every time. I tried...

I've bought a handful of Ridgid factory blemished tools and have had no problem registering them.

Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank tomwil

Be aware that this Ridgid grinder can only use Grinding (Type 27) wheels (safely).

The Ryobi brushless grinders provide the adapters and guards to use both Grinding (Type 27) and Cutting (Type 1) wheels.

Well I'll be damned - that IS good information to have!

I've been using this tool wrong for quite some time. Thanks!

As a beginner DIYer, these platforms are killing me.
I was on the debate between M12 and Royobi V18 combo kit. After I got M12 I realized there are so many Royobi products that I want as well.
And I got the Dewalt combo kit last BF b/c ppl saying they are the best. Now all the new tools I want are too expensive on the Dewalt platform and I can't afford them anymore.
Now I need an angle grinder and jigsaw. I am looking at these awesome Rigid deals and I dnt have a battery.
Oh BTW, for every combo kit I purchased, I am adding up another drill and driver sit in front of me for me to display on my shelf.
