very handy bit of kit, but eats the batterys big time. For occasional use for this reason, unless you have loads of batterys.
Still good though(for the money) but i would think the newer bosch or makita systems would be far superior. _________________ Go on, adopt a greyhound http://www.dgrescue.org.uk/ ..........................................................................  |

Its different to my 18v dewalt circular saw, but would agree that it'll soon drain the battery, but is fantastic for small jobs, such as cutting floorboard tongues to lift flooring to lay pipes. _________________ www.hintonheating.com

My mate has the 14.4 and it is ok, I don't think he has ever had a problem with it! _________________ DIY | DIY Video |

| Looks like a good little saw to use when you have to. Not for the big time yet. Did I see that right in 6 inch blade? |
