What is Flexvolt used for?
Dewalt explain that the idea of FLEXVOLT is to offer better heavy duty performance to their already existing 18v range. Cordless tools are great for convenience and usability, but when it comes to shear power, there are certain jobs that are still much better accomplished with mains machines.
Dewalt have made it their mission to start making cordless tools that ARE able to stand up to the toughest challenge. They set out to create tools that can saw, cut, chisel, and hammer through those heavier materials without the need for a cord.
Looking at the inital range of tools on the FLEXVOLT production line (see below) Dewalt are ticking off their high drain low performance 18v range like Grinders and Circular Saws. ITS can't wait to see where DeWALT take this new range.
