Looks like Bunnings have finally come to the party and cut the prices on many 18V PXC skins to match Mitre 10's Rockwell deal. Will update as I find them.

Really wanting the jet blower and garden shears but they're not discounted yet.

The hammer drill kit comes with a 2.5ah battery so is excellent value!

18V Radio $29.50 was $54.90
18V Jigsaw $32.50 was $64.98
18V Hybrid Inflator $49.50 was $94
18V Workshop blower $26.98 was $49.90
18V Buffer $39.98 was $79.95
18V Multi function tool $34.50 was $49.98
18V Brushless Hammer Drill Kit $87.50 was $149
18V LED Torch $12.48 was $24.99
18V Orbital Sander $32 was $63.98
2.5ah Battery and charger $61 was $69.98 - Unsure if this was discounted earlier or is part of this sale. Better off getting the hammer drill kit above IMO

          I mentioned this to the woman a few weeks back when returning an Ozito product and she told me it was a straight up rumour and not true because there's no way they can prove it was used for trade use.. Has anyone actually had it rejected?

          • bleemo on 06/05/2022 - 10:23

            @AngryAlfred: I think it's more the fact that when you buy through PowerPass, you automatically forfeit the 5yr warranty? I thought that's how it worked.

            • AngryAlfred on 06/05/2022 - 10:27

              @bleemo: Yeah that's what I'm reffering to. Based on OzBargain I thought the same thing but when I asked the lady during a return (I'd bought it without PP specifically for this reason) she told me it was just a rumour and I could use PP in future and not void anything

      I'm already in the Ozito Eco system so makes sense for me to get these. But I believe the Rockwell batteries are compatible with other brands like Toolpro.
      I think Ozito would have the edge for warranty returns though, Bunnings is much closer for me than Mitre 10

    • Dsiee on 06/05/2022 - 07:23

      Ozito by a large margin. Rockwell loves changing there battery design to screw you over and they lack the higher end version of many tools like ozito.

  • Switchblade88 on 05/05/2022 - 21:42

    I grabbed the sander, circ saw and another grinder today, and nothing else was marked instore as discounted this arvo. I have most of these already so I don't think I need to make another trip back to Bunnings…

        PowerPass app does a realtime stock lookup, I'd recommend that over the website to confirm.

    • justtoreply on 05/05/2022 - 22:20

      It's a POS.

      First impressions are great. But then..

      You realise the battery drains significantly whilst turned off. Forget leaving it somewhere and actually expecting it to work when you need it. You shouldn't have to take a torch and ozito battery with you to get going ffs.

      The orientation of the dial and battery release will either work for you or be opposite to what you need. They should have at least centralised the brightness dial and put it on the front. Ofc the battery release wouldn't be an issue if it didn't drain so fast when not in use.

      The adjusting mechanism isn't quite stiff enough so expect it to close inadvertently too often.

      The position of the mount clips and general design is not quite right to be practical. Eg: The rubber gets in the way of some mounting positions.

      I love it's bright and adjustable but any idiot who actually tested the product could have made it so much better..

        "the battery drains significantly whilst turned off" do you think yours might be faulty?

          I know. Mine drains like a mofo. Currently using it in the wardrobe whilst my batten light is dead. Every 3 days i gotta change to a fresh ozito battery even though run time has only been about 5-10 minutes.

          I don't even bother any more. I open the not-so-nearby window and make do.

          I'd like to leave the ozito hanging in my unpowered shed for light but there's no point.

            @justtoreply: Thats definitely got to be a fault I would say, Run time would have to be longer than that
            Good thing is its easy peasy returns and exchanges. Reckon you should swap it over

          • whitelie on 06/05/2022 - 00:19

            @justtoreply: Interesting, I probably wouldn't be leaving it plugged in unless I take it away but sounds suss to be draining the battery.

            I've got a Bosch one like this which I leave plugged in to a 3ah battery year round. Use it as my main torch around the house and would probably charge it once a year and many times it would be on and hanging above my BBQ for an hour or so.
            Perhaps that's a better option for the wardrobe?

            • justtoreply on 06/05/2022 - 00:26

              @whitelie: I need to get the cfl replaced with led batten rather than buy a Bosch ;) I was getting dicked around by electricians and I gave up but I need to get back onto it. Probably going to need to sink $5k into electrical work :/

                @justtoreply: Unless they're trying to rewire the entire house $5k is outright theft. LED battens are dirt cheap, so it should only be that + labour to disconnect the old one (2-3 screws depending on bodge factor), remove it (again, a few screws), mount the new one (screws.), wire in (more screws). If your sparky isn't dicking around it should be a 10-15 minute job.

                I guess you'd probably want to factor in 2-3 hours of them standing around on the phone organising other jobs, but even then $5k would be ridiculous.

          • cheapass88 on 06/05/2022 - 08:45

            @justtoreply: Either your light is faulty or your actual battery is faulty. This should not drain when not in use. You should look at getting it replaced.

        • subywagon on 06/05/2022 - 12:01

          It does the same with my one. I always make sure I take the battery out. Otherwise I like it. It's very bright and last for ages if my 4ah battery is fully charged. I use it everywhere, under the car, in my roof, under the house etc etc

        • ABA on 06/05/2022 - 14:21

          I thought mine was faulty but I never bothered to take it back. Now, above comment confirms its a design flaw. Other than this, I absolutely love this light.

      • Prong on 06/05/2022 - 09:28
        +10

        Based on the one I grabbed this morning, yours if either faulty, or they updated the design.

        I measured the current, and it does not draw any at all when turned fully off.

        At the minimum setting (before it clicks off), it pulls 3mA (no visible light). Up to a max of 0.86A on mine, so about 17W. (rating is 20W).

        Depending on the battery, 3 days to drain a battery is around 20 - 50mA draw. Mine starts making light from about 5mA.

        The brightness adjuster dial on mine is a hard click off - is yours the same? I have not opened it, but I am presuming it physically disconnects the power, rather than just being a software disconnect.

        It's certainly possible that yours is not physically disconnecting the power (older design, or fault) and you are getting some power use but no light.

        If you have a multimeter, it only takes a minute to check.

        As a comparison, the large LED spotlight (the $65 one, fantastic light) uses a software switch and draws a few uA when off (it varies from 20ua at first to about 0.2uA after a while but I have not checked what it averages of longer time periods.). The battery BMS and self discharge will draw more than that.

        I presumed your light does the same thing on multiple batteries, but if it is just one battery, then the battery may be faulty.

        The battery release is easy, and the adjusting mechanism tight (and adjustable) on mine, so maybe they updated the design?
        If so, warranty it for the drain issue, and they will replace it with the new model.

        • Srey on 06/05/2022 - 10:45

          I've had two of these lights now, original one got flogged when I left it in the basement garage one day, had a 4ah battery in it too :(

          I love it, I use it mainly as a light for night time boulder sessions and the spill and throw is fantastic, a little on the cool side for my tastes, but perfectly usable.

          I can confirm that my original one at least definitely would draw down the battery even when hard clicked to 'off'; enough to flatten a 2.5ah battery in a day or so. I just got in the habit of hitting the battery release and sliding it part way out of the light when I was turning it off for an extended period.

          I've been treating the new one (purchased a couple months back) the same way so unsure if it has the same issue but the OP here with his complaint was not alone. Definitely not enough to stop me from going and buying another one of them at this price though!

        • bamzero on 06/05/2022 - 12:45

          Maybe they fixed it but yeah the old ones definitely draw power when off, despite the hard click. I remember when the deal was posted at the time someone commented that they did that, I checked when I got it but can't remember how much the draw was.

          Thought about adding a switch to disconnect the battery, but was a bit of a PITA as the battery pins are soldered directly to the board, wasn't a simple wire chop. Probably get around to it one day, apart from the battery drain be good when camping so can just turn on and off without messing with the brightness level (although if they've fixed, warranty replacement sounds like a good idea too)

          (Ok, checked mine again. only 2.7mA when off, would take over a month to drain a 2.5Ah battery. Must have been another batch that were much worse)

      Yeh got one about 2 years ago when they were going for $29. Great for camping, always take it along with the inflator and blower.

      Tempted to get another, but reminds me I've still got one of those $10 Power-G ones from Autobarn sitting here that I've been meaning to draw up and print a new battery mount for so it will take PXCs.

      • dufflover on 05/05/2022 - 23:44

        I missed (more like hesitated lol) buying the PXC light but then did find out about and got two of the PowerG ones. Plenty bright enough those to work with, regardless if the PXC is brighter on paper.

        But I have found these individual style units a bit limiting at times; if they drop the price of the tripod set up one I'd definitely think of getting that one.

          At home I mainly use the high pressure side, bike tyres, balls, topping up car tyres. You set your target pressure, turn it on and it stops once it gets there.

          Take it camping and mainly use the high volume side for air mattresses (and fueling the campfire) but Iast trip took a SUP and used both sides to inflate. Took a while, about 1 and a half minutes on the high volume side, then about 20 mins on high pressure to get to 15psi. Set and forget though and beats doing it by hand.

      I bought one of these drills yesterday. Once opened, found out few scratch marks on the drill. I am not sure these are brand new. The plastic wrap was scrunched up too. I guess these are refurbished ones.
      Also noticed that while running, the clutch rotation is not centered.
      Will go back to store and return.

      Anyone else bought one, please post your experience.

        Most likely a returned unit. Bunnings does have very generous return policy and staff would assume it’s still new if the previous person re-taped the box before returning.
        Unboxed my blower yesterday and there was no plastic wrap (while my other 3 tools all had them) so probably a returned one as well. No scuffs and worked fine when tested so I wasn’t too fussed.

        P/s: just remember a few months ago I ordered a bunch of taps to be delivered, upon receiving 3 out of 7 was opened and retaped (they came in blister pack so very obvious to staff who picked them). Again I used them just fine (they were half-priced) and I’d imagine staff wouldn’t give me much flaks for returning them opened.

        Exceedingly unlikely they would sell refurbished ones as new.

        Sounds like someone didn't check a return properly and it ended up back on the shelf. Just swap it for a new one,

          Guys, just returned the unit. I opened another piece and found out the same issue. The drill package inside the red carton is double sealed (a round clear tape is affixed twice). Nonetheless the price is good and 5 year warranty is awesome!

            @mhc: I would have gone thru all the stock to find a sealed one but as you say, if there's any issues in the 5 years, you can always swap it

              @whitelie: If item included a battery, I would be more concerned in case somebody swapped the battery out. Not sure if the battery is included with the 5 year??

              • whitelie on 09/05/2022 - 16:41

                @Borg: Good point, batteries are 3 years

              @whitelie: If it was 2 or the factory circle seals then they probably opened all of them to do something like instruction manual swap. Happens fairly often (used to work as a supplier to retail).

                @Duff5000: I see, but how do you explain scuff marks being buffed. I could see those clearly..

                  @mhc: I find the ozito tools aren't the finest examples of quality manufacturing, the rough plastics they use are often imperfect compared too something like Bosch. YMMV since you haven't shared a photo.

                • Duff5000 on 11/05/2022 - 16:40

                  @mhc: Was that on your 2nd one as well?

                  • mhc on 12/05/2022 - 10:37

                    @Duff5000: Yes it was the same. Chuck wobbles and scratch marks on the chuck. You have to see very closely with different light angles.
