Deal Details
Lowest price I've ever seen for this saw. Free shopping with code: freeship

From direct tools outlet:
Refurbished 1 year warranty
Blemished 3 year warranty -LSA (lifetime service agreement) eligible after registration within 90 says of purchase.

I've had a much easier time registering all my blemished purchases from direct tools than I have from home depot. In both instances they approved all of the 20+ tools I've registered.

Steps to register from direct tools from memory.
1. Go to ridgid power tools registration. https://register.ridgidpower.com/sign-in
2. Enter model number off the BOX -it may be different than the one on the tool.
3. Enter serial number of tool.
4. Enter purchase date and select other when asked where it was purchased from.
5. Select direct tools outlet from the list.
6. Review and submit.
7. Upload copy of order confirmation from email and save to the tool. I usually print to PDF.
This is the most important part to get quick approvals
8. Go to your dashboard.
9. Click on the "action required" button on the tool. It has a red box around it.
9. Click the hyperlink on the word "here" where it says " Complete this form here" to have your request reviewed within a week.
10. Add previously uploaded receipt again by clicking choose existing one.
11. Click send.

They will review and approve LSA status.

I don't understand how people get this wrong still. From this company:

Refurbished comes with 3 year
Blemished cones with LSA

This is right around the lowest price for tool only. During the holidays I think it hits this price or a couple dollars lower with the return hacks that involve buying a couple things and returning part of the order

Great price, factory blemished rigid tools come w a 3 year warranty, while new they come w lifetime.
Wrong! Just did the lsa for a blemished caulk gun from direct tools. Was some extra steps but still went through and is now registered as lifetime covered.

Where do you see this on their website? I hear people say this but I've never seen it listed on their site.

I know from experience of buying tons of blemished Ridgid tools from them. The only exception is usually stand alone battery chargers.

I am sure it says it somewhere out there though.

sorry was going by their page
If you don't register within 90 days, 3yr warranty applies. Otherwise, it's lifetime.

Great saw. I bought it for $99 new from HD last year. I've used it a bunch and have no complaints.

If it's octane will the previous gen battery (18 volt lithium ion) work with it?

Edit: on my in depth seconds of research it seems they may work

Every 18v ridgid power tool shares the same battery platform across so generations. Using an octane (and now MAX) battery will give the tool more power when pushed hard.
