next generation of power tools
On milwaukee electric's website, they are advertising "the next revolution
in power tools". However, there is no link for further reading. Anyone know what's up? From the animation, maybe hydrogen power cells? Stephen R. http://www.milwaukeetool.com/us/en/s...Index?ReadForm |

Looks like a clock counting down which when it gets to zero we get to
see what the next generation is.... Looks like 47 days 5 hours ... from now... S R wrote: On milwaukee electric's website, they are advertising "the next revolution in power tools".

You know, for me I want to know what is up and coming. That might tempt me
to wait, otherwise they loose the sale. "Never Enough Money" wrote in message oups.com... Looks like a clock counting down which when it gets to zero we get to see what the next generation is....

"Leon" wrote A 28 volt power tool...... I'll pass.. Corded is certainly cheaper and lighter weight and will have more power than everything except maybe a drill. 28 volt power tools? I wonder if they are going into the sex toy biz? Now there is a vast untapped market for a powerful battery that lasts and lasts! DAMHIKT |

Click on the "Cordless Tools Myth: More power means more weight" link. Looks like they're coming out with a 28V line of cordless tools. My guess is they're utilizing the latest in battery technology. Anyone know what's up? From the animation, maybe hydrogen power cells? Dunno if the state of the art runs to either fuel cells or microturbines at that voltage. The amps are there for light-drain applications like cell phone and laptop batteries but the cost-per-unit is still prohibitive. Marc |

Everything I've read says the Bosch 1590 is King of the Hill. More
amps, more electronic control, better dust management. Maybe I've been reading the wrong stuff? |

Adam Osborne put himself out of business by pre-announcing a computer several months before it was actually available for sale. He got people excited enough about the new model, sales of the existing model fell through the floor. -Mike -- http://www.mschaef.com |

Dave Jackson responds:
Every year or two a tool company comes out with a higher voltage battery for their cordless tools than the other companies offer. looks like same old, same old. --dave Not quite. 28 volt lithium ion. Should be some major changes, but the battery cost is going up, I'll bet. Charlie Self "One of the common denominators I have found is that expectations rise above that which is expected." George W.
