Lowe’s Dewalt PowerStack Battery Deal Sold Out Already

Lowe’s splashed their front page with Dewalt Days tool deals banners, and one of the deals looked especially good.

They say “1 Day Only” for a huge doorbuster-like Dewalt 20V Max PowerStack deal, where you can get the premium 5Ah pouch cell battery and a charger for just $49.

Lowe’s had this Dewalt cordless starter kit on clearance a few months ago for $91. It was $99 at Amazon back in July, and is $95 at Amazon at the time of this posting.

$49 at Lowe’s vs $95 at Amazon? Sounds great.

But then if you look at Acme Tools, they’re selling the Dewalt PowerStack 5Ah battery for $219 each. They also have the starter kit for $139.

Dewalt’s PowerStack 5Ah battery and starter kit pricing is all over the place right now. The only thing that’s clear to me is that $49 is a phenomenally good price for the starter kit. Even if you don’t need the charger, that’s a huge bargain for the battery.

Somehow they thought it was a good idea to take a starter kit that was on clearance 4 months ago and make it a deal of the day.

Of course it’s already sold out.

Was it sold out at the start? I’ve seen that before – where deals of the day, even on special sales events such as Cyber Monday – are sold out from the start.

Maybe you’ll get lucky and there’s a store near you with a starter kit or two collecting dust on a shelf just waiting to be purchased online for in-store pickup.

The rest of Lowe’s “Dewalt Days” tool deals seem mediocre to me. With Amazon Prime Big Deal Days coming next week and holiday season deals a few weeks later, there’s no reason to rush into things. Getting a PowerStack 5Ah battery for $49? That’s different, but good luck trying to get that deal.

Some of the deals are popping up at other retailers. Amazon, for example, also has the Dewalt rolling jobsite table saw for $599.

Last year, the Dewalt table saw had a “regular price” of $649 and was $599 around Black Friday. Now, the “regular price” has been bumped up to $699 – or $719 for the list price at Amazon – but it’s still on sale for $599.

Two years ago the same saw was $549 and as low as $474 after coupon. (See HOT Deal on Dewalt DWE7491RS Table Saw). Prices are up due to tariffs, but shoppers should still do their research.

I wouldn’t rush to buy the table saw for $599. Will the price get better? Probably not. Will it push higher? I’d also say probably not.

We’re about to enter a messy holiday deals season. Shop carefully.
