do the specifications on Bosch website always include or exclude the weight of the cable?

Hi Ian

The wieght specified normally doesn't include the cable & plug. You got me interested however so I'm going to go away and weigh a couple of my tools and see what I get. I'll be right back. :)

I generally assume the 'worst case' and think cable & plug isn't included, and it does seem to be typical practice to specify tool weight this way, but I have seen the occasional maufacturer spec quoting weights with cable which put the doubt in my mind about Bosch.

N.B. assuming Bosch weights are stated without cable, there's nothing bad about the tools I'm looking at vs the competition.
