Fair price if you need the HO batteries but do not be fooled by the $299 price. This has been $99-$129 for several months, with the exception of the "Spring Back Friday" event when HD ironically raised the price to $299.

This isn't that great of a deal. You can get the m12 fuel drill, impact driver, 2ah, 4ah and charger for about $130 hacked if you are willing to wait for the deal which comes pretty often. I know its not apple to apple and it cost $30 more, but I would rather take a drill and driver for $30 more and trade the 5ah battery with the 4ah battery.

As with anything - There will always be a better deal if you can wait long enough.

The HO 2.5 and 5.0ah batteries are superior tech to the 2.0, 4.0, and 6.0 but might not be an urgent purchase for you if you don't know whether or not you need them. This exact kit for $99 is decent if you really need the 5.0 battery immediately. Sub $75 would get into deal territory.

If you're just getting started in M12 then you might be better off waiting for future deals on tools that come with a free 5.0 batter as a bonus.

There is a YT video testing all these Fuel batteries giving you the power output and duration of each battery. Good info if that matters to you.

Its the cell technology that changes.
The basic 2.0, 4.0, 6.0 are older tech. (the 4 and 6ah are very good)

The problem I have with these battery deals is they always give you a low ah battery, then a 4 or 5ah battery.
The heavier duty M12 tools will not reach max output with 2ah batteries.
Think the drill being used in hammer mode drilling into concrete. My poor 2ah battery wouldn't even turn the drill bit after the 2nd hole. Popped in a 6ah battery and knocked out 20 holes (about 6" deep) with plenty of battery to spare.
Same goes for my M12 impact wrench. Get way, way more nut busting ugga uggas out of bigger batteries.

Absolutely laughable that this would ever have an msrp of $299.

Has anyone figured out a use for M12-only chargers?
I've swapped all my kits to dual volt chargers so I'm wondering it it's possible to build an artificial reef with unused M12 chargers. There seem to be more deal with chargers than without.
