    Different makes charge more as their kit is betterer. Price matching to a price point or competitor sometimes. Either was its betterer for the environment if peeps use one charger and set of batteries across multiple tools.

    Still doesn't account for why they sell the stuff with no batt or charger for the same money as other companies sell the whole kit. But yes, I too have stuff where one charger and batts powers more'n one thing.

    Tie the rope to the rear of the car so when you drive off,the ramps will follow. Saves walking too far carrying them back to the garage

    Tip of the week...... You need 2 lengths of rope...tie one end to the ramp & lay the rope out the full length of the motor and drive over the rope, the weight of the motor on the rope stops it sliding away. :)
