I paid full price for one of these a couple of weeks ago after waiting like 6 months for a sale, so I was certain we would see a sale soon. You're welcome.

Price at $10 per Ah is where people think is the standard. But this battery is better than other brand because you can use as power bank and charge via usb-c. You have to buy some sort of a converter in order to do that with other brands. So for $10 more it's a great deal.

I don't see it listed but it usually come with 45w usbc charger.

I have a lot of skil 12v stuff. Wish they would do a 4.0ah kit with a free tool like they did with the 2.0ah

I agree. Skil needs at least 4ah to properly power hungry tool like a circular saw or reciprocating saw. The 2ah makes those tools feel weak and underpowered. 6ah is the sweet spot for those tools.

I was going to get the little vacuum kit but a 2ah included battery is hilarious.

The best tool kit with the 4ah battery (not usb-c charging) was the Walmart Christmas deal with the 5 1/2" circular saw for $46.88. I didn't have any use for the 5 1/2" saw but it was cheaper than buying just the battery. This deal came right after I got the 5 tools with 2 2ah usb-c charging batteries for $80.

They were bought by some Chinese company called Chervon in 2016. I recently bought their 12v right angle impact driver and it is excellent.

I guess I'm holding out for the 10 tool kit deal to come back. But for a 4ah, I think I'll bite on this one.
