okay and you guys i don't know i just don't want to see hands on top i want to really get this thing going guys if you need to get it started to get it in that's fine i'll give you a three two one are you both ready i'm ready three two one go put that right here one two three four five one two three four five same nails all the way through yep this is uh the flex demo wood with got a nails inch and a six inch we also have a number of uh metal cutting blades as well and a carbide uh blade as well for stainless so flex is coming out with their own line of blades is what you're saying without telling me okay yeah so we have um over 70 different accessories coming out to support this brand we have cutting of course six and a half and seven and a quarter inch uh pro level blades which are really fantastic super fast coating on there active speed tooth design clears the material incredibly fast of course we have drilling and driving nut setters everything ready to go here we have a reset blades you know demo wood with nail metal carbide tipped jigsaw blades a bunch of starlock omt accessories and a ton of kits trade specific kits and these really awesome stack packs so i don't know if you saw how easily i put that together just like that i got three packs here i can open them like a book really great packs all right so not only the tools that got the job done but the accessories too thanks eric all you're seeing are pure power plays what you're not seeing are the batteries being able to go back on the chargers immediately because they're not overheating thanks to thermatech what you're not seeing are the batteries charged faster than everyone else because of the higher wattage and the safe charging technology that we've developed over the last 15 years dual cooling fans in your chargers right exactly which helps it keeps everything cooler along with what we're doing with the battery tech along with the software management that is unparalleled these are the things that you'll see after you do the torque test in the real world every single one of these tools is sensorless every brushless motor is sensorless but the benefit of sensorless is that you no longer have this component that's adding size okay which allows you to either make the motor more compact or it allows you to add extra windings to make it more powerful we have a ton of sensors inside of our tools a ton of sensors but because of what we're able to do now with power iq it's no longer necessary to…
