For anyone else interested in the 960, B&H currently has one used with foam for 196& shipped. I would have jumped on that in a heartbeat. sigh

Just a heads up for other neophytes who might not have expected this: based on a post elsewhere, it occurred to me to check whether my compass (the standard kayak compass) is affected by the motor. So I sat down on the floor with my Blacktip and found that if the compass is slid up front, or is in the middle of the tube, and I turn on the motor, the needle doesn't seem to move, but if it's back toward the back of the tube, it does.
Now I have to figure out why my DPV (kayak) compass, my EON Core compass, my iPhone compass, and my backpacking compass, all seem to have minor disagreements on direction. It does seem odd that all of their needles swing when by each other, but not when by a big DPV (albeit one that isn't running).
Found with my kayak compass that if the compass strap is on top of the blacktip cam buckle, it's in a good spot. I started with it all the way forward and the compass would read South until sliding it down to that spot (12aH batts)

Right... That's what I'm saying. They're all 20V.
So, 2 x 12Ah x 20V = 480 W-Hr for the BT.
4 x 5Ah x 20V = 400 W-Hr for the P1.
But, the P1 runs the batteries in a 2S2P config, I think, so it's like it has 2 x 10Ah x 40V. Still 400 W-Hr, though.
Edit: Bad math! I meant to say, the P1 is 2 x 5Ah x 40V, so it’s still 400.
I hate to break in on a competitors thread to correct you, but Dewalt only advertises the "20V" batteries in the Americas to supposedly differentiate them from their older 18V NiCad batteries. They are actually 18V packs containing 5 (or 5 parallel groups) of 3.6V cells in series. 5 x 3.6V cell =18V. In Europe and the rest of the world, Dewalt calls them 18V packs because of truth in advertising laws.
