I have 20 Ridgid batteries and have done comparison tests just for fun when I was bored. I have three 6.0 Ah Octane batteries and five 6.0Ah Max Output batteries. In my vacuum runtime test the Max Output batteries lasted a little over a minute longer. I use both in my Ocatane Hammer Drill to mix mortar and can't tell any power or torque difference between them. I know the Torque Test channel on youtube compared the 3.0Ah Octane vs the 4.0Ah Max Output on impact wrenches and found a very slight torque advantage to the Octane, but I believe it was only like 3% of thereabouts. I like the 3.0 Ah batteries for my impact driver and drill at work because of their footprint and short and wide base. While I do like the rubber protection on the Octane line, my Max Output batteries are holding up just fine.

With this deal when both items are added to the cart the total will be $169 but they each have a split price of that cost. The "hack" is using what Home Depot allows and either returning one of the items for partial refund (leaving you with the "hacked" price") or doing store pickup but not picking up the other item you don't want/need.

Home Depot allows this, they can make deals that don't work this way and they have before but this is what they offer and what you can do. No morality decisions involved in following what they allow and have for a long time.

Makes the batteries $82 + tax after the hack. Probably not a bad deal for the "Max Output" version of batteries.

One of the pictures on home Depot website says we get 2 free tools with purchase, but I can only add tool Frown

Is it counting one of the batteries as a tool?

If I understand it correctly you return the pieces that you don't want to get the pieces that you do want at a discount. People have also used 2 different stores for pickup in the past and just never picked up the pieces they did not want.

This is an excellent price for 4ah and 6ah Max bats and charger. DTO had the 6ah Max bat for $62 recently and that was a good price. Too bad a 1/2" impact is not an option.

Product pic doesn't match description: "Buy a RIDGID Battery Starter Kit and Get a free tool (Qualifying OMSIDs 320163469, 308915540, 319962170, 318497955, 315976352, 315976333, 315979537, 319376784, 305436645)".
Website only lets you add 1 free tool.

Good deal on the batteries though. I heard $10/ah is the "deal" rate.

Even if you keep the tool, this is a great deal. Didn't have the circular saw yet so this is perfect. Thanks OP!
