A new KING of Power tools.

What happens here

Chad explains that Kress tools are rated to an IPX5 waterproof standard, meaning they can withstand full water jet sprays and work in wet conditions without damage, unlike tools that are only water-resistant. This feature is particularly beneficial for commercial landscapers who often work in unpredictable weather.

Goal: Understand the waterproof rating of Kress tools.

that's like a full water jet spray uh on your tool so it can take more water coming to the tool and it's not going to damage it so that's that's that's really important because especially for Comm commercial landscapers you know down in Florida and places like that where they always get an afternoon shower they don't have to stop cover up the tools they can continue to still work so one of the things too is 3,000 life cycles is what the batteries are rated for doesn't mean they're shot does it mean that they're just down to 80% is that right Chad once you get that threshold you know we talk about life cycles so it's like you get to that threshold of like that uh life cycle once you go past that that's where it starts to De degrade and never get back to 100% so then you get back down to 80 so that's when you start to lose Integrity of the battery so but but you're not throwing the batteries out you're only able to charge them up to 80% you're not losing anything else and just your fuel tanks diminished a little bit absolutely okay that's a good way good analogy of looking at it what do we got Zach aroni
