I wish they'd make a hybrid TS-55. I would love to have one track saw that could be both powered off AC and batteries. I hazve zero need for a cordless sander as I would never use a sander that wasnt connected to a vacuum, so it might as well be AC powered anyway.

  NOW that's an idea, a Hybrid Saw...

Makes a whole lot more sense to me than a hybrid sander does. The only other tool I can see being a good candidate for hybridization would be the jigsaw, but then I work out of my shop/garage, so I never have a need to go portable.

I'd like the idea.  It might be a little trickier since the TSC runs on two batteries.  An 18V AC adapter would be great for my HKC.   

The TSC will run on 1 battery though and Im sure there is a way electrically they could allow the increased amperage when using one port connected to AC power. Its very easily done, they just dont want to or havent yet.

Just about to order a DTCS, can the Airstream charger be used with the batteries? having just decluttered my charging situation I'm hoping not to start adding to it straight away!

On the etsc 125, can you put the 150 Airstream 2 pad on it like you can with the ets 125 models?  I know it's not "supported", but is it possible?
