- Is this kit worth it over buying the sander alone?
- Only if you need multiple batteries. A bare sander plus one 4Ah pack costs less; this kit makes sense if you want a 6Ah and a FLEXVOLT pack for other tools.
- Will the FLEXVOLT battery work in my other DeWalt 20V tools?
- Yes. The FLEXVOLT 6Ah runs in any 20V MAX tool and delivers 60V in FlexVolt tools, so it works across both lines.
- How long does the 6Ah battery last when sanding?
- Expect roughly an hour or more of continuous sanding on moderate loads, depending on pressure and material. The 4Ah pack runs proportionally shorter.
- What comes in the box?
- The 5 in. random orbit sander, one FLEXVOLT 6Ah battery, one 20V 6Ah battery, one 20V 4Ah battery and a charger. No bag or case is listed.
- Does the sander accept standard 5 in. sanding discs?
- Yes. It uses standard 5 in. hook-and-loop discs, which are widely available in many grits.
- When is this kit cheapest?
- DeWalt battery kits typically drop during holiday sales and spring tool events. Compare the current price with its recent range before buying.
