Had one of the flame king tanks start flaming while running by buddy heater. Lucky it didn’t catch my flip over on fire. When I hooked it back up I could hear it leaking. First time I had used it.
Why don’t they list torque #’s?
Dewalt uses UWO as their measurement..not sur why ..100 UWO equals approximately 100 in/lbs( 100 in/lbs per inch diameter of auger drill diameter is recommended) ..both drills listed in my post are good for a cordless set up . I had a chance to use a Dewalt DCD996 w/6ah Flexvolt battery ..that thing cut and worked awesome ..I also seen the 996 cut with a 4ah XR battery ..there was a difference in performance ...did the job though . the DCD998 is the newest it girl ...when paired with a Flexvolt battery it bumps up the torque.
I got the 998 last summer after my wife killed my old crappy cordless drill. Told her I "needed the bigger drill for work around the house". It came with an 8ah XR battery. Unfortunately I only got out a few times last year but the drill turned my old mora auger like the ice was not there. Punched a fair number of holes on a few of the days with zero problems. I definitely want to get a new auger with a centering point so the auger doesn't walk on me.

Did you have the bleed valve close completely? I do a lot of refilling and even use the old green bombs once in awhile if I find empty ones in good shape. The flame king refillable 1# tanks are so worth the money over refilling green bombs. The valve to open/close for bleeding the tank is the nuts, and so much simpler then trying to bleed the green bombs to get them full.
