For the price I'd probably go with the 2 4ah batteries and a free tool for $179.00 at Lowe's. Just picked up my planer and battery kit yesterday.

6ah is also that weird section. A lot of the more power hungry tools are advertised with 8ah, or even 12ah for miter saws, etc.

Either get the 2 4ah with free tool at Lowes or wait for the Expert tabless cell batteries to go on sale.
