Local Lowes today had the PC 18v lithium combo kit of drill/driver, impact driver, flashlight, 2 lithium batteries, charger and storage bag on clearance for $71.60 and tax, kit PCL318IDC-2. I have a good collection of the Ryobi 18v tools and use the impact driver a lot and was afraid it would be failing this summer. I don't know the quality of the PC 18v tools and hate to get into another battery style but couldn't pass it up. One battery at Lowes was $74.97. I see you can also order it online now for same price plus shipping and tax.

You must watch your battery size. A lot of the combo sets come with a tiny "starter" battery that gets poor longlivity reviews. (Can't remember the size this early). The battery you really want has over 2x the capacity. Kinda like all of the product downsizing you see in the grocery store, same product just less of it for the same ole price. Why would anyone want a small capacity battery on a hand tool, and what mfg would even offer it as standard.

Didn't go check yesterday because the website was showing full price. Will have to go in a bit, my dad needs a birthday present and I'm out of ideas.Comment

McKinney TX store finally accepted my order online and charged my credit card. Then I got a call from the store that they had none left. Said they were working on refunding my purchase price! Wonderful customer service!"I see", said the blind man, so he picked up his hammer and saw.Comment

I get it at $71.60 using Tommy's link and my 76133 zip code.
When I click the store pickup on the right, All 5 locations come up as 'Currently Unavailable'
If I add it to my cart, all options are 'Not Available' now too.Last edited by pelligrini; 03-08-2012, 01:56 PM.ErikComment
