Default WARNING. DeWALT And Black and Decker Tools causing serious Injury and Death.


Well yes and no if you go to the B&D web site they have all their recall's
listed, Mine was for a switch on my cordless 15.6 drill. He simply
embellished the warnings with "MAY CAUSE FIRE INJURY DEATH". Puff


Wonder how far that loose battery has to fall before it gets up enough
inertia to cause an injury more severe than "ouch, dropped the !@#$%^&*
battery on my toe"?


Quite a way, I suspect. I've been using a DeWalt 18v cordless for
almost 4 years, and the battery has never fallen out... though the
plastic bit on the chuck is a little loose after prolonged heavy use.
And my Black and Decker 10" miter saw is a trooper as well.

Good products, despite the err... "serious risk" of injury and death
