Tool kit strap
Does anyone know if the rubber tool kit strap for the 1500 was changed for the 1800? In other words, can I use a strap from the 1800 in my 1500?

Re: Tool kit strap
I never see 1500 straps for sale on eBay...they’re always 1800 ones...
And of course, 5 minutes after I typed this 2 showed up on eBay! LOL
One of them says it’s a “battery strap”? My battery box has a metal bar retainer not a strap? Have they misidentified this strap as a battery strap? Or do some 1500’s use a strap for the battery? If so I wonder if the battery strap and tool kit strap are the same size?

Re: Tool kit strap
It must be a misidentified tool strap. There are no battery straps on the GL1500.wezx wrote: ↑Wed May 13, 2020 9:35 amI never see 1500 straps for sale on eBay...they’re always 1800 ones...
