There are a couple of deals worth mentioning, but we’re still waiting for Father’s Day promo details to start trickling in.

Most notably, Home Depot’s got a $20 off $299+ coupon that’s good for one week only. Lowes is only offering free shipping on $49+orders, but it’s better than nothing.

We also put up a couple of notable Amazon tool deals on the site’s sidebar. Some of them are really good, like the Bosch $20-off $100 and $40-off $200 deal we posted about the other day, some of them are just okay.

Amazon kicked off one of their Father’s Day promotions today – $20 off $100+ or $40 off $200+ Bosch tool orders. Most if not all of Bosch’s cordless tools, corded tools, benchtop saws, and accessories (including L-Boxxes!) are eligible for the savings.

The discount appears in your cart automatically at checkout, and the deal ends June 23rd, 2012.

Back in November and December 2011, Amazon had a $20 off $100 holiday deal, which was nice, but the addition of a $40 off $200+ discount offer will definitely be more attractive for anyone looking to buy a combo kit or benchtop tool.

In case you’re wondering, I already ordered 2 L-Boxxes and might order 2-3 more. I’m also looking at a number of cordless products and accessories to potentially give as house-warming gifts. Here are a couple of notable ideas:

Bosch PS21 cordless driver and/or Bosch PS31 cordless drill (review) are great models for homeowners and DIYers that don’t really need the power or features of larger and pricier 18V models. The PS41 impact driver pairs well with the PS31, and is almost a steal given its current pricing ($108 after $20 discount if purchased solo).

The 1617EVSPK router combo kit is priced at $200.00, meaning the price will drop to $160 after $40 discount. That’s a heck of a good deal on a very well-loved router kit.

I really could go on and on with more recommendations, but I think everyone gets the point. If you’d like more Bosch or Father’s Day tool or product recommendations, drop us a line and we’ll help out the best we can.

Harold wrote in to share that Amazon’s evening lightning deal is for a Dewalt 12V Max wireless inspection camera. The final price until 9pm ET or when supplies run out is $208 with free shipping. Amazon says that this price reflects a “61%” discount, which is exaggerated. Still $208 is a great price and reflects a savings of about $60-80.

We have one of these on our test bench, and it has proven to be a versatile diagnostic tool. The display separates from the rest of the unit, hence the wireless part, and while this seems a bit gimmicky at first, it comes in handy almost every time we use the camera.

Amazon’s regular price is listed as $272. Other vendors are charging $272-290.

Thanks to Harold for the heads-up!

Yes, these are usually considered DIY brands, but there are a couple of decent tools and accessories suited for all users.

Dremel’s Multi-Max oscillating multi-tool lineup has been expanding, and the new MM40 tool is proving to be a very capable and user-friendly machine. Cordless multi-tools are useful, but their battery life can be disappointing. Dremel’s cordless model is not immune to this and is also less powerful than their corded multi-tools. Even so, there are times when a cordless model is much handier than a corded one.

The cordless Dremel multi-tool is currently on sale for just $62 shipped. This may signal that a new model is on its way, or perhaps Dremel just didn’t see enough sales when the tool was priced above $100. The cordless Multi-Max MSRP was $150 when it first came out one and a half years ago.

If you’re set on a cordless model, Craftsman’s newer G2 multi-tool features a tool-free blade change, although it doesn’t hold much of a runtime or power advantage.

Over at Amazon, Gearwrench 7-piece combination ratcheting wrench sets are on sale for $40 each. I’m pretty fond of these wrenches, although they see less use than my reversible Gearwrench ratcheting wrenches. $40 with free super saver or Prime shipping is a great price and is about what I paid for these sets a while back via a Sears deal.

I am a huge fan of Felo’s Ergonic screwdrivers. The handles are squishy, grippy, and insanely comfortable. The last time I mentioned this 9-pc Felo Ergonic screwdriver set, I thought $35 was a good buy. 6-piece sets are currently $30-40 via Amazon.

Right now, Rockler is offering a 9-piece set for $19. The set includes a 6-piece standard driver set (4 slotted and 2 Phillips), and a 3-piece Torx set (T10, T15, T20).

Note: In case you’re wondering, I will be ordering a set for personal use. I don’t need more drivers, but the deal’s too good to pass up!

Amazon dropped the prices of most Wera Zyklop and Koloss ratchets and ratchet sets over the weekend. We don’t recall ever seeing prices this low. Several extensions and other drive accessories have been discounted as well.

As with other Amazon price-drops, we have no idea if it is temporary unannounced sale or permanent adjustment. Going by the market price of most Wera Zyklop products, our guess is that this is a temporary sale.

Wera Zyklop 3/8″ Ratchet
Wera Zyklop 1/2″ Ratchet

We’re not the only ones watching these tool. One of the ratchets sold out a few hours after the initial price drop and is now only available with a 2-4 week backorder.

We put Porter Cable’s new 18V lithium-ion drill driver through a few grueling tests and then into the hands of a contractor. We’re still putting the finishing touches on our review, but thus far it looks like the drill earns high marks across the board.

Porter Cable: We’re really proud of our upgraded 18V li-ion drill/driver!

ToolGuyd: I can see why – we’re definitely liking its ergonomics and performance.

Porter Cable: Do you think one of your readers would like to win one to use in their Spring home improvement projects?

Update: Here is the randomly-selected winning entry.

Over at Lowes, this Dewalt 18V combo power tool kit (DCK425C) is on sale for $200. The kit includes a compact drill/driver, impact driver (1170 in-lbs torque), reciprocating saw blade with keyless blade clamp, and a pivoting-head flashlight. It comes with two 18V NiCd batteries and a charger.

Although the redesigned Dewalt 20V Max lithium-ion cordless tools are quite a bit nicer, you won’t find them anywhere near this price. $200 for a drill, impact driver, and reciprocating saw is quite a decent deal even though they’re not cutting-edge designs.
