So how many batteries would I have to buy to get through a 5-6+ hour paint correction job?

A couple diesel batteries should do it.:idea:

Yeah, I'm thinking a company like Rupes that has been making power tools since the late 1940's and has been an innovator in the industry for the past 70 years or so and just came out with the ibrid would be the ones to come out with a legitimate battery powered da.

"2008 Orbital polishing takes its first steps: the LHR 150 with a 10 mm orbit is developed.
With the DD 108, a cordless drill driver, RUPES becomes a 10.8 V lithium pioneer."

Here's a link to Rupes history, it's quite interesting, pay particular attention to the 1968 timeline. We have Rupes to thank for random orbitals.

I just don't see any battery other than what you said above being able to handle the motor that's needed to power a da polisher or sander and deliver the torque we need to accomplish paint correction.

OP when it becomes available please invest in the tool and post up a review for us on Milwaukee's detailing website. In other words, please support the the company the supports our forum.

Funny thing.. I just orderedone got it yesterday
I got the 18v fuel with blue tooth
Had free 5amp battery promo
Theyll be comming out with a 6amp and a 9amp batter very soon

[Mike@ShineStruck]

And a cordless D/A?
Dangit!
I know they had a 12v rotary polisherI, was tempted to try..
Hopefully the D/A is on the 18v and comes with the 9amp battery

[Mike Phillips]

Cordless DA?

Or cordless rotary buffer?


Where did you hear this?

I'm quite happy with my cord. I always assume battery units will drain out while using or be just too week for the task at hand.
