I bought some 20v 6Ah batteries of Amazon for 59.99 for 2. About 1/4 of price of new dewalt ones. Seem to be working out good...Will know more after beating on them for a while...

If they're the grey ones we been using them at work for a while now and they do ok on drills and impacts but would not run a blower when they where brand new. Now after a few months of use we're starting to notice they're not holding up as long as the name brand between charges but we do use them a lot so for home use they may work fine.

Dewalt or Milwalkee for hi dollar cordless tools.
Ryobi is quite decent for the price.
CRAFTSMAN HAND TOOLS ARE AWESOME!

Hey Guys and Gals,
This is a simple review on something that I am no way paid for or sponsored for by the company. I feel it can help people that are wanting to up their level in the derby game. So people have asked questions about plasma cutters before and I have put out the same recommendation for awhile now. The Reboot RBC-4500. Yes it was bought from Amazon! Less than 300 dollars you can cut up to 1/2".. ok ok ok, so in reality it will cut 1/2" but not very long. 3/8" it does a pretty clean cut and gets cleaner All the way down to 22ga sheet metal.
I will start out by saying they are cheap! So understand you will need to modify if you want to be more mobile in the garage as I did. They come with a pretty long cutting head and lead which is great but short you on the ground and power cable. I have switched out ground cables to a longer 15 foot lead and heavier ground clamp and was super easy with a single Allen head set screw. The power cord I went to a 10 gauge single phase(three wire) and made that 15 ft. Used crimps to the supplied 12 gauge ends and was good to go. I suggest solder or direct electrical fittings but this was how I did mine.
Hit the power and turn the amps to 34. Seams to be about the sweet spot on my machine. The pressure gauge on the back is where you will need Google to convert the dial to get you to about 50-65 psi. I run a craftsman 20gallon air compressor and it does just fine.
Couple people have came to me with some issues that were minimal, like the trigger not hooked up or regulator was turned all the way down but thats about it.
Duty cycle you will hit now and again if you are building a big cage or constanlty cutting thicker material.
I highly recommend getting the box of consumables with your order.
