          Thanks for the information. If occasionally I need to drill the wall. Is brushless not a good option? I just use any 1 drill for general tasks at home

            @eecchhoo: If you need to drill brick you'll want a hammer drill (and masonry drill bits) instead.

            Brushed or brushless motor wont really make much difference for drilling the odd hole here and there.

  • Devilius on 22/05/2023 - 14:36

    I also got the chainsaw but the chain is a bit blunt now. I am thinking of buying the chain replacement. Does anyone know how much it costs? Also, I saw chainsaw sharpener as well. Does anyone has experience between the sharpener or the chain replacement? Which one would you recommend?

    • Muzeeb on 22/05/2023 - 15:17

      I do a lot of chainsaw work for firewood on my property using a 2 stroke Husqvarna.

      You should sharpen your blade every time you add fuel and bar oil. It's best to keep it sharp rather than sharpen a really blunt chain.

      The files are super simple to use and you only need about 3-5 passes on each tooth. It pays to get the guide because if you file on the wrong angle (or used the wrong sized file) you are doing more damage than good.

      Plenty of videos on YouTube for guidance.

      If I was you I would just buy a new chain, the file and guide, and keep it sharp.

      Depending on the length of the chain, once you get a good technique, you can sharpen the chain in less than 5 minutes.

        This is correct aside from using a husqy, and don’t forget to get a file for the rakers.

          Yes.

          A good sharpening kit will have:

          • Round file
          • Flat file
          • Angle guide

        • Muzeeb on 22/05/2023 - 18:56

          That's a bit of overkill. I'm talking about a kit like this. Nice and delicate on the chain teeth. There are cheaper kits around but anything similar will suffice.

      just make sure you get the right size

      and also if you file the teeth down over time you need to grind the chain depth guides down
      …but by that stage a new chain isnt far away

      • zozuc on 23/05/2023 - 10:23

    Dont know how Brushless Reciprocating Saw is better than this standard Reciprocating Saw, anybody advise ?

    • crom on 22/05/2023 - 15:50
      +4

      Brushless should be a bit more powerful and efficient because it doesn't have the losses associated with having brushes inside that have to touch the commutator to transfer electricity to the motor coils, and should require less maintenance in the long run because there are no brushes to wear out and replace.

      The way to know for sure would be to buy both and take back the one you don't think performs as nicely.

      all you need is a copy of your warranty

      unless youre a tradie banging on your tools 8 hrs a day its what you expect for $59 with a 5 yr warranty

      I've ditched all mine, but I haven't needed to claim a warranty yet. Surely they will take the tool and the receipt as all they need right?

      • tonyjzx on 22/05/2023 - 15:32
        +2

        a good step is just buy online and your warranty is always on your account

        or just scan your receipt and fish it out of your scanned folder if need

        they use heat sensitive receipts that fade anyway (ie. receipt wont last 5yrs)

        • imnotgoingtopayrrp on 22/05/2023 - 17:12

    • dtc on 22/05/2023 - 17:01

      the serial number sticker will include the date of manufacture. So in 4 years you can prove it was made less than 5 years ago if you lose everything else. The tools turn over quickly, they are unlikely to have been sitting on the shelf for 12 months; but obviously you might buy one that is 6 months old at time of sale and want a warranty claim at 4 years 11 months and then this option wont work.

    • RolandWaites on 22/05/2023 - 18:08

      Warranty issues on any product, from any store, shouldn't require the box it came in. Boxes are only necessary for change of mind returns.

    folks, out of the aldi and ozito grinder which one and why? given you have both battery ecologies covered.

    • Doobies on 22/05/2023 - 16:33

      When the ozito dies in 18 months you can walk back into bunnings and swap it. When the aldi one dies.. well, it's dead.

        project farm did a chain saw test

        higher rpm means less torque so the high speed chain saws stalled out under less load

        If all you are doing is light surface grinding with basically no load, speed is king. If you are cutting or grinding and putting a fair bit of weight on the tool, torque is king

        If you do a lot of grinding, corded is king, they have both at the expense of convenience and having to run an extension and trip on cords

  • cobknob on 22/05/2023 - 16:54

    Brushless drill driver only for timber/metals/plastics - don't use for brick, concrete or plaster. Ozito confirmed this and recommended hammer/rotary drill!

                      @cobknob: It's unusual to place plaster directly on brick unless it's a retrofit. Most houses these days are built with insulation in mind which requires an air gap that only wood or metal studs can provide.

  • Boogerman on 22/05/2023 - 16:56

    Bunnings haven't match Aldi on 4 tools - multitool, recip saw, plunge saw, drill press. Additionally the Ozito impact wrench is a little under powered

              @Boogerman: Yep, but the brushless Ozito one is not a match for the more basic Aldi one.

              The price matching is a voluntary thing from Bunnings, so they don't always offer something better.

              • Boogerman on 22/05/2023 - 19:13
                +1

                @Prong: In most cases they haven’t even offered an equivalent

                • Prong on 23/05/2023 - 07:55

                  @Boogerman: Yep - sometimes they offer something way better, or way worse, or don't match at all.

                  Hard to compare some items for important spec because Aldi don't include much info or a manual to download.

                  This time doesn't seem too bad. The only potentially unexpected one IMO is the drill. However Aldi are not clear on if it theirs is a hammer drill or not - they previously advertised the hammer drill as a hammer drill. This time it just mentions hammer function. In the past when it was advertised as a hammer drill, Bunnings matched with the Ozito hammer drill.

                  Everything else is either pretty closely matched, or has no Ozito equivalent. The Ozito impact wrench has lower torque. Aldi don't give enough spec to say if their chainsaw is equivalent or not. The Ozito battery + charger deal is higher capacity. The Ozito single charger is cheaper. The angle grinder appears equivalent. Ozito has no equivalent to the Aldi multi function tool and reciprocating saw.

              @Boogerman: The difference between brushed and brushless is not going to be noticeable by the average now and then home handyperson. It’s an over exaggerated difference for the vast majority of people.

              • Boogerman on 23/05/2023 - 00:24

                @dtc: Then they shouldn’t even bother with getting brushless tools. They should simply get the cheapest which is XU1 at Bunnings or even 12v tools

                • dtc on 23/05/2023 - 11:19

                  @Boogerman: thats not the same thing at all. Its like saying 'you dont need the turbo engine for that particular car, the standard engine is fine' and your response is 'well, then they should just get a bike'

                  The max difference in power between brushless and brushed is 20% and its probably a lot less for Ozito. Saying they should then get a tool which has even less power doesnt make sense.

                  • claud0902 on 23/05/2023 - 13:50

                    @dtc: You are right about the overkill possibility to certain user types.

                    However we are talking about paying the same amount on products with different capability.

                    Despite the difference of the capability might not be noticeable, or the one with the higher capability might be overkill to my use case, I would be paying the same amount to get either!

                    So no, I will pick the car with turbo engine given the price is the same.

              • King Tightarse on 23/05/2023 - 10:51

                @dtc: Depends on the tool in question. For example, the brushed Ozito impact driver is crap for repeated use. It heats up and loses power - the brushless version can go all day no worries

                • dtc on 23/05/2023 - 11:23

                  @King Tightarse: sure, if you are using an impact driver all day then dont get a brushed one. If you are using it to screw in 15 or 20 screws then it doesnt matter. Most people dont need an impact driver, so I guess if you are buying one you are buying one for something requires a lot of use; but that is a specific tool/situation. The tool most used is probably a drill, but for 95% of people they will drill 5 holes max most of the time, and on a busy day maybe drill 30 holes over an hour or so. Brushed or brushless wont make any difference whatsoever, (unless they are drilling right at the limit of capacity I guess, but again an edge situation)

    I have a preference for utilizing Aldi's tools, as they possess superior technical qualities compared to Bunnings' equivalent products. However the convenience of Bunnings' refund policy is highly appealing and during Bunnings' liquidation, their prices become unbeatable. It requires a stroke of luck to come across them.

    Thinking about grabbing the reciprocating saw for some basic at home butchery. Been using a hacksaw for the last year but I've seen a few YouTubers using a reciprocating saw so I think I'll get one to make breaking down joints easier. I can't imagine the difference between brushed and brushless is going to matter so much but interested to hear if anyone else is using a reciprocating saw for this purpose and what blades you find are best to use.

      For stuff not on pricehipster, I find if Google shopping tends to show the old price.

      Chainsaw - $199
      2.5Ah + Charger - $59
      Multi battery charger - $69.98.

      Exactly, we need to know how much we're saving to know whether we need this or not.

    Some of these matches are closes to regular RRP
    For example, the Brushless Impact Wrench PXBWS-340 is $89 now but sell for $95 RRP - Its only $6 saving
    Brushless Angle Grinder is $89/ $109 regular - its OK but not amazing

      True. But on the other hand… very nice discounts on the Fast charger (65% off) and Multi Battery Charger (45% off).

    Shame the brushless impact driver always seems to get skipped on these discounts. Been waiting for a while to see this come down:

    Looking for ozito pxc orbital sander, don't suppose there's a deal on one

    Does anyone know if the 2.5AH battery is using 21700 cells instead of 18650?
