Is the scope interchangeable? I see the Bosch PS91-1A offers both a 17mm and 9mm and they are able to be changed... can the Dewalt?

The DeWalt 17mm and 9mm scopes are interchangeable. I don't know of a Bosch can interchange with a DeWalt but all the DeWalt sizes are interchangeable.
752596
Yes, the two sizes of scopes are interchangeable. Both the DeWalt 17 mm and 9 mm will fit the base unit.

The DeWalt DCT410S1 in contrast to the Bosch PS91-1A, Dewalt comes with the camera of 17mm as standard team; therefore, the camera of 9.5mm must be acquired separately. Nevertheless my experience with the team Dewalt has been quite satisfactory. The advantage with the Bosch is that it came with both the 17 & 9.5 mm scopes, and both they are interchangeable in the tool base.

Yes the lens extension is a separate removable piece. Dewalt does make a few sizes (17mm & 9mm - not sure if the 5.8mm fits this model, but Dewalt makes that size too).

Neva, I purchased a dewalt DW5780B151 Chisel. Not to sound like an ass but the chisel and moil point only fit in one way. Perhaps you were already aware of this. Good luck , Dan

Per the Bosch site, the difference is the blades provided, the tool itself is identical. One provides more accessories. Amazon may have not posted the correct information, go to the Bosch site, you can do a compare tools sets, see: http://www.boschtools.com/Products/Tools/. Review the Bosch list carefully, many items are listed, but not in the same order

They make another version of the scope called the Sweet 17. You might want to look into that one.

Probably not. The Bosch web site does not list the two model as ones that would fit. The reason is your models use a clamp, and this snaps in then, twist to the correct angle with indents.See link http://www.boschtools.com/Products/Tools/Pages/BoschProductDetail.aspx?pid=18SG-5ENote: there are dust covers from other companies that have screw clamps that would probably fit. Google: "angle grinder dust shroud".

I have owned Dewalt products for many years. I have a miter saw that is twenty years old and runs great. I upgraded to the DW717. It handles and well and is smooth to operate on the slides. I do not own any rigid tools.

i also compared both, bought the dewalt and it is an excellent table and works well. especially the drilled holes all match up perfectly. i love this table and would buy this one again if i ever need another one this size.

One difference I know of is that type 2 saws are no longer compatible with DeWalt's laser guide attachment. I bought the Infiniter RS-1 instead and have been happy with it...http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000CRE7Q4/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?qid=1410519922&sr;=8-1π=SX200_QL40

Im not sure, I cannot find any info on the PS-30, what I did see though is that the PS-30 is a hammer drill where the 31 is just a standard drill whit variable speed settings. i like the 31, as it is small for smaller tasks and can get into smaller areas. You cant go wrong with this combo specially for the price.

Both tools have proven to be fine choices and dependable. If the only concern is the switch then simply put a piece of clear plastic film over the switch. This will enable you to see the switch setting (on/off) to respond to the state you wish for the tool. I do not see a major problem, but rather a minor preference. Both tools have power brakes, power steering, etc., so the choice for me would be the one I prefer simply for looks. However, I would prefer the Bosch tool to be made in Switzerland or the Porter-Cable tool to be made in the USA rather than China or Mexico.

Suggest contacting Bosch to see if they have one. Otherwise, probably would buy a cheap spade drill set from Walmart , thow the bits away and use the case.

I purchased the Dewalt because it WAS NOT made in China and because the fence is adjusted front and rear with a rack & pinion apparatus therefore controlling the movement of both ends of the fence. I no longer have to measure the fence position to make sure it is square with the blade. The Bosch fence is just like my old Craftsman contractor saw, slide it into position and lock it down. The problem after a few years is the fence locks down out of square. The only downside of the Dewalt is the direct drive motor which I do not like but the Bosch is the same. With the extension arms mounted you can handle a full sheet of plywood by yourself. The stand goes from collapsed on wheels to upright in just a minute and when stored away takes very little shop space. The fence would kill the Bosch purchase for me.

correct all Bosch 18v batteries are compatible with their 18 volt line (with the premise that they are the new lithium models). Yes you can buy a bare tool. If you are not going to use the 1/2 drive, I would suggest that you purchase the other Bosch impactor. This model is larger and has issues with retaining magnetic sleeved drive bit holders. This is from personal experience with the tool as I own it. Hope this helps.

I recently asked the same question of Milwaukee sales support (after hearing of some M18s that would not work with saws and the like). Here is the answer I got: 1st generation of "M-18" batteries manufactured between 2005 and 2009 would not fit todays' tools. They were designed for the compact drill and impact in the earlier years. Everything manufactured today in the M-18 series are compatible.

It's not as powerful, of course, but it has low end speed and a very precise trigger control. Given the choice, I picked the 12 volt hammer drill for my uses and am really satisfied. I bought the 20 volt hammer drill for my son in a package from Amazon that included a reciprocal saw and he loves it. I like the Lithium batteries much better than the Nickel Metal Hydride because the Nickel batteries discharge when not in use and have a memory. Not so with the Lithium, and they are STRONG! The chuck on the DeWalt is 1/2", I believe, and the Bosch 12 volt is 3/8". Sometimes size matters. It's not as powerful, of course, but it has low end speed and a very precise trigger control.

On the Dewalt it depends on what base you have installed. . The D shaped base ( DNP614) has a larger hole for clearance using larger bits and the guide bushings will not fit. The round base (DNP613) will accept the bushings, The plunge base also accepts the bushings. Get a round base to go with the bushings, Its less than $7, great setup.

I have the same question, have looked at DeWalt's web site and found nothing.
