I'm not a big fan of Griot's products. Seemingly overpriced, overrated.

But, this looks like it could be really useful for detail work...

    I think it being Bluetooth would enable it to start/stop on voice command. One of these perpetual energy devices could make the IC engine obsolete, just put one on each axle and have AWD!!

    I'm still skeptical about battery powered gadgets. I prefer the extra power and generally cheaper proces of corded tools.

    Just team them up with this:

    to make them just about as handy as cordless!

      I wonder if you could team these with an inverter, put one in your battery box
      and leave the other one at home. Think how much weight your car wouldn't have to carry!

      Thanks for the tip! Both products are right for the times.

      You never know when it will strike, but there comes a moment at work when you've made up your mind that you just aren’t doing anything productive for the rest of the day.
