It says in the description you can charge a mobile phone or tablet. Does this mean it has an integrated USB charger or do you need to stick your own charger into an outlet?

Same for France here :

I think it is too expensive for an extension of 10 m !

The description indicates that there is some space for storage inside (battery, phone etc ...).

 

[NL-mikkla]

Description indicates it has five outlets, I only see four.
They also state that you can safely charge a phone, so maybe the fifth outlet is on the inside??

I don't get this obsession about putting everything in matching boxes. What advantage does this thing have over a regular power strip except x10 the cost and x10 the size?

Hi Alex, in English from festool UK
https://www.festool.co.uk/Products/...34&name=SYSTAINER-SYS-PowerHub-SYS-PH-GB-240V

I don't see any USB specs. I think you will need your own adapter

 

[blaszcsj]

When is this available? I'm going to Spain in a few weeks. What are the voltage requirements in Spain? Compatable with USA voltages?

 

[neeleman]

Here are some pictures of the inside of the SYS-PH.
It's a pity that they did not include a power cord real.

220 V

Everybody will be running their power tools off this systainer (d'Uh!). Ergo everybody would be melting this systainer since nobody ever bothers with unreeling the cord completely.

The Festool-approach makes sense (Even though it means - as always - that the good suffer for the bad)

 

[mouppe]

I like this a lot but I want to find out what gauge the wire is and what it would take to trip it.

I'm always tripping my power strip when I run my thickness planer and shop vac off it and it means I either have to buy a much stronger expensive one or leave the machines much closer to the wall socket.

 

[Bill Chang]

The cord reel comes separately as an accessory kit and it will be another $200.00  [eek] [tongue]

 

[ear3]

NAINA I suppose?

This is a European model, so it is for 220v. Due to the higher voltage we don't need to run as much amps through a wire as is needed in a 110v country.

Looking at the thickness of the cable it is a typical high quality cord for job sites, which typically have 3 inner wires of 1,5 mm²  thick copper. They can accomodate 220v up to at least 16 amps / 3500 watt.

In the description of the Festool box I don't see anything about a fuse, it only has a thermal safety.

Looks ok but what about the site lads? Unless there's a 110v transformer version it's pretty pointless for the uk.

230V only in the UK.

Keeps workshop and Van tidy.  You can rack everything to fit one size.

You could buy a sys 3 or 4 and buy 3 extension leads to put  it and still have change out of the £135.00

Don't really see the point in 240v in the uk, it's fine for the home workshop, but get any thing other than a battery charger in the uk and the site agent would boot you off, same with the new sys light thing. I'd love to use 240v my self, I hate sharing 110v on site and luging a transformer round but it's just the way it is in the uk.
