I just wanted to get @CWret going
I can show you the receipt I honestly paid $80 as the sale price.... just maybe not Canadian peso's 😀

I see.... I hope it worked! He generally sucks almost full time.

It's OK. At that price I would have bought the pair, but the truth is that I'm not in love with those bigger batteries. I have one of them and I rarely use it. The whole point of M12 is to get a smaller handier tool size. I find the bigger battery works against that a bit. When I need more battery life, I usually shift over to 20V tools.

I got my pair for power hungry tools like the die grinder. The problem with switching to a higher voltage tool is that the form factor is also bigger - the reason I’m looking at the M12 3/8 x 13 band file.

I did knuckle under a bought a 6Ah 12V Bosch battery from Lowes (US$89 with my Military discount: Amazon was US$99 and others were up to US$170 plus shipping!) to use with the 3” Angle Grinder - small form factor and the 6Ah battery should balance OK since it is the recommended battery by Bosch. I have a 3Ah that is the same physical size as the 2Ah if size matters for a job.
 
Update - the grey Dewalt battery compatible tool I received DOES have low battery detection and cut-off. Thats a nice discovery that I wasn't expecting.
