Good price but refurbished tools do not qualify for the Ridgid lifetime warranty (LSA). Just a heads up for anyone that cares about a warranty.

It's worth noting that since this is "Factory Reconditioned", it won't qualify for the Ridgid LSA.

Just out of curiosity, do either of you know if the Rigid lifetime warranty applies to the "factory blemished" tools? I price matched the Direct Tools deal for the Ridgid job site tablesaw with Home Depot ( around December ) so I was able to get the warranty ( because I bought from HD ) for the saw. Curious about the other "blemished" tools from TD tho.

FWIW this was hackable a while back (less than 4 months for sure) as I was able to get it for ~$100.

I have the Octane saw.
It's limited on what you can cut when using regular batteries but is a beast when using Octane batteries with it.

I assume a NON Octane saw would be just as limiting.

I would recommend you pass if this saw is not Octane.

I have seen this combo at this price at HD in the last three months. Given that this isn't eligible for LSA registration, I would wait for a sale at HD.

Father's Day is coming next month (June). I would wait for better deals if you don't need this right now. Btw, my 18V Rigid drill/driver is stronger than my 20V Dewalt equivalent. I don't have the model numbers at the moment to list.
