Dewalt 20V MAX XR® Brushless Cordless 2-Tool Woodworking Kit (Router and Jig Saw) - DCK201P1 $279

.
Food for thought.... I saw this yesterday and thought with all the $200 box store deals that had/has either of those tools with two 5amp, charger and bag, for $400 you got both tools, four 5amp batteries, two 115 chargers and two bags. Or, if you shipped the tool and forget to pick the battery kit up as a so called hack, each tool is $100. Is the 5amp battery and 118 charger (that is only 4amps at 20v) worth $79? Having bought several 118 chargers for $45 and 5amp batteries for $50 for a total of $95, there is a little savings at $79. I know the returns are a lot easier at the box stores.

At the moment, this is a decent deal if you need both tools, but would be FP in a few months. If they included a flexvolt 6amp (that could use the 8amp charging capability of the 118 charger), then a good deal today.

I was thinking the same, I have both tools and I purchased each one for under $100 each. Both tools are impressive for a 18v (20v is just marketing) tool but I still have more powerful corded versions... and they both are from Bosch. Now I wish the plunge base for the router wasn't so darn expensive so I wouldn't need to pull out my Bosch every time I need to use the plunge feature.

You guys are right about hacking the two tools but very rarely do you see the fast charger in any deals and this charger is great. Fast charger with 5ah battery is very much a great deal for the $79.

That is what I did with the HD hack. Ended up $100 per tool

It's showing up as $299.99 in cart. How do I get it to $279?

IF you need both tools, this is a good deal. I've bought the jigsaw individually as I am still milking an old but good Craftsman 19.2 C3 router....

With the fast charger and that batt and as noted IF you need both tools this is quite nice. The fast charger as noted makes the others a pain. I am also surprised to see the fast charger with this deal as there are other ones where I was wondering why they didn't have it.
