  • In looking at getting the powerstack drill+driver combo with 805 drill and 850 impact with twin 2.7aH or twin 5aH batteries and charger.

  • +1

    What's the better brand to get, Makita or Dewalt?

    • +3

      They are both good brands - for every person you find that swears by Makita you will find another who goes with Dewalt.
      I would suggest you go into a store and see what you like the feel of best and make sure they have the tool you need.
      If you are not using the tools all the time you might find something that meets your needs with the likes of Ryobi that are a lot cheaper.

      • And even within Ryobi there are tiers of basic and brushless too.
        Ryobi only at Bunnings though.

        • I was thinking about ryobi plus, but the $799 pack comes with brushed tools only and the only brushless kit is the drill and impact brushless pair with batteries and charger, otherwise for brushless you have to buy individual tools.

            @kiwijunglist: Yeah this deal is better, just saying there are some decent tools in the Ryobi line.

        For every person you find using DeWalt you'll find 5 running Makita in my experience.

        Just look at what the tradies run, all Makita except the occasional sparky running yellow.

        Makita aggressively marketed into the tradies a long time ago and it's stuck.

      • Look at what tools they offer. DeWalt is handy at home because of the 54v system of batteries/ yard tools that are well designed. Makita has a large market share and plenty of work tools are available cheaply second hand.

        I can also recommend sticking with the non "power stack" batteries if you intended to use them for high drain applications.

        • +1

          Why do you say that? The powerstack batteries are specifically designed and marketed for performance boost for high drain tools ie. they can discharge faster by delivering a higher current than the non powerstack batteries.

          • @kiwijunglist: Sorry for the late reply. Imho
            Drawing from a large quantity of the best quality cylindrical cells is a much better idea than stacking some (of even the highest quality) gel cells.. especially for high draw applications. Such as the 54v blowers. Personally I wouldn't use anything less than a 9ah flexvolt in such a tool to maintain the batteries health.

            • @wearnes: Not sure if there is any long term testing but the manufacturer claims more charge cycles than the standard batteries (powerstack vs standard 18v). I think it's double, but i can't remember.

    • My long reply died. But in summary both very similar, different tiers within both brand, i think makita slightly better. This is based on my Reddit research…

      Was going to buy makita but price seemed a bit too high for me (light diy)

    • +2

      Some prefer makita, some dewalt, some milwaukee - it will always depend on who you ask but dewalt for sure for drop saw & table saw.

    • +1

      I prefer Makita - partly because the batteries work with a wide range of gardening tools. Makita probably has the widest range of compatible tools followed by Ryobi. Ryobi is firmly in the homeowner market where Makita, Dewalt etc are suitable for trades.

      • +1

        Was just in m10, the number of DeWalt gardening tools is huge now, comparable to makita and ego. They are doing a lot of promotions for the gardening tools at the moment as i assume a lot of them are fairly fresh to the market. I have ego tools, but the DeWalt ones look interesting.

        • +1

          I have both Makita and DeWalt power tools and I would have to say that DeWalt tools are considerably cheaper mainly to do with the importers here but in the US prices are more competitive with each other. And yes, there's just as many gardening tools in the DeWalt lineup as all their other competitors. And as for quality Makita has a two tier system with the cheaper models made in China and top of the range made in Japan but that is changing unfortunately. I would give the edge to Makita for top of the range but certainly not twice as good as the price sometimes reflects.

    • I have used both and I am diyer and gardener , i personally find Makita fantastic, i think for construction 🏗️ workers DeWalt Milwaukee etc will be good they are lot more powerful

  • Tried a couple of different delivery addresses and showing out of stock for me.

    • yeah it looks to be out of stock. This special has been around for over a month, but I guess with posting it on the internet it sold out..
