The new ratchets already come with the updated locking accessories. Chances are you don't need to request anything after purchase.

I second this from the deal a few weeks back.it comes with the locking socket adapters. Already used it a few times and it is well worth it! Very handy, powerful, and fast. I was quite surprised how good it worked as a right-angle screwdriver for a tight spot when mounting fans to custom PC case. If you have use cases for this tool, you won't regret it.

Just to be clear, you don't want to keep the battery in this deal. You want to return the battery to get the tool price down to $213.88.

You absolutely need an M12 High Output XC5.0 in your tool box because it's arguably the best battery out for the M12 line right now; it delivers consistent voltage to higher powered M12 tools. You can get the battery for $60 or less depending on the deal. The battery in this deal is $85.12.

Just make sure you test the Insider when you get it. I got 1 from the Homey Depot and it wouldn't remove a bolt torqued to 25lbs, I knew something was wrong. Ordered another from Northern Tool with the BMSM deal and free battery for 214 and it easily removes bolts. Returned the homey depot insider and told them it was defective, as it truly was.

Things to consider: Sometimes Amazon can beat or match homey depot's prices, but Milwaukee does not recognize Amazon as an authorized seller/distributor if you need claim a warranty. Also, there are contract price points that distributors are not allowed to go under, therefore they throw in freebies like chargers & batteries to bring down the overall cost of item. Milwaukee, Apple, Samsung, etc., know how the game is played & can end the hacks if they really wanted, so hack away Mr. Lumber jack.

Can you select different pickup locations and just not pickup the battery?

Watch for this deal to come back so you can get a free 5.0 after selling the extras 😬

Is it possible to get pass through extensions for this like the extensions for the kits that GearWrench makes? https://a.co/d/c6HqC9n

Recently did this for another hackable deal and the battery was the first thing ready (2/3, pickup by 2/10). The store called me after 14 days to remind me it was there for a while now and I had to tell them I no longer wanted it, so they processed a refund
