I've been wanting to try one of these. I'll probably swing by tomorrow to check my local HD.

Brickseek lists it as $149, but as "Clearance", and as you can see from the receipt image I posted above, it's selling at $99, and appears to be available in all stores near me. The yellow clearance label actually said this was the price as of late December IIRC. Am I missing something and is there a good reason this hasn't been a deal here?

Decent deal, as the 6.0 was going for at least a hundred before they started trying to get rid of the a few months ago. The small 3.0 that the 2.5 replaces was going for around sixty or so.

This is mostly to see the stock. If it's clearanced - you need to go to the store to see what is actual clearance price.

If you enter your zip code in Brickseek it'll list local inventory and say "Clearance". At least it is near me. And I absolutely paid $99 for it (plus tax of course).

There was a 4 & 6Ah + charger deal for $89 last year, but they no longer sell that kit. No charger with this but most people already have several.

Picked up this deal about 2 weeks ago. Its only in store that it's $99. I went to a few different HDs since then and ever single one has had them in stock and at that price. Surprisingly it's not hard to find.

I saw this in store earlier today but I don't have much m12 stuff so I passed. I don't love how thick and bulbous the m12 grips are. This is still a very good price.

But I don't think there is much added benefit you get from these, because "High Output" doesn't mean 21700 cells like it does in the m18 line (or other battery powered tools). The battery insert-into-tool design of m12 doesn't allow for larger diameter 21700 battery cells, so these are higher input due to using higher discharge 18650 cells. So you probably won't get a large boost in performance with these relative to their equivalent capacity standard batteries.

It's still a really good deal if you need extra batteries, which I did. And I don't need extra performance so much as extra capacity. I've been more than happy with the performance of my previous generation M12 batteries, and I have all of them except the 3.0XC. The one tool I have that really goes through batteries is the right angle die grinder. Great tool btw.

Just saw this in the Q&A:
Quote :
The cp3.0 generally uses Samsung 30q 18650s. Only 15amps max continuous discharge. The 2.5 uses Samsung 25S cells, 25amp max continuous. There are 3ah cells that can do 25amps, like the LG HG2, but they cost more.

Bulbous

LOL they are quite bulbous. The M18 grips feel way better.

My local HD in Campbell Ca had 2 6ah M12 batteries and charger for $100. Was tempted to buy but have so many already
