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.

Exactly. I used this with the hack, two batteries, charger, pack all for under $100.
not the same and not hackable
"Includes: 6.0 Ah and 4.0 Ah MAX Output Batteries, Charger, & Bag
Includes: Extra 18V 4.0 Ah MAX Output Lithium-Ion Battery"

there is no "choose your free tool" on this one Frown

Don't need 3 batteries and the previous deal is best for my use:
18V 6.0 Ah and 4.0 Ah MAX Output Lithium-Ion Batteries and Charger Kit with Bag

just missing an extra 4.0ah MAX battery, no loss, since I have about 6 other batteries.

In the other thread, you can do the hack twice (pick circular saw or recip) and end up with 2 of each batteries for about this price. I think batteries were 82+tax using the hack. No point in buying this three pack unless you like paying the same price and get one less 6.0ah battery

Exactly! If you really want more batteries, it works and much better price.

If you pick up at the store you can just return the Ike you don't want. What I did was order the battery from one store and the saw from another. Just don't pick up the saw and it will be canceled after three days

I ran into the same issue, had to have both shipped or both picked up from the same store.
Did store pickup....they didn't have the batteries available even though online said they did, so I just had them cancel the saw after they cancelled the batteries on me.

I don't need the batteries (got 6 already) but I might do the Jan and return them and get the angle grinder as I don't have one. Wish they offered the sub compact material saw as I need that as well but the angle grinder is fine for right now!

Quote from airdrummingfool :
Does anyone know what happens if you return a Ridgid tool after registering it for the LSA? Some of these deals are better than my recent purchases, but I've already submitted the LSAs and they're all pending. Will the returned tools get removed from my account? Could it cause any problems?
As long as your tool that you've returned doesn't break and then you make a warranty claim on your nonexistent tool, you'll be fine.
