The Bosch booth had a good deal on a 12 volt jigsaw with lboxx-1 and 2 batteries/chargers for $179. Tempting but I had just picked up the jigsaw a month earlier.

They had starlock blades off to the side which i inquired. The sales rep had no idea of the price and it wasn’t even for sale which was strange.

I’m involved with in-house maintenance and having the 18 volt flex-click can come real handy when from one job to the other is unpredictable.

I follow the Instagram posts from the event and ppl that attended mentioned American and Canadian pricing.

The 18 volt FlexiClick looks real interesting. Price tag I hear will be $399 😦

Hi all newbie here.

Just wanted to let you guys know that I bought the kit CLPK402-181 and it was mentioned in this thread that the CCS180 will have the new handle.

Well guess what, it’s the old one. I’m more a diy’er so should I bother with the upgrade?

Thx
