DeWalt DC385K 18volt Cordless Recip Saw
The saw price thru Amazon in KIT was a great price [saved shipping] even over Ebay. Ran the saw thru about 6 discharges then a 24hr balance charge.Very well built unit. If you do a lot of cutting a xtra battery is necessary. Plenty of power to the ovious discharge. GREAT blade cuppler. Worthwhile tool to own.
powerful and light
The saw is very powerful and will cut thorugh a lot.
Of course the battery drain is according to its power - it will drain fast if you load it a lot, but that's rather a good sign.
I bought it during a sale when they gave me a free extra battery. When using it intensively I would have 4 batteries, 2 charging a 2 with me. It is rather light, not too noisy and the vibrations are ok. Make sure you get the "type 2", not the "type 1"
For short bursts only.
I bought this to work on a remodel on a house for a friend. The 90 degree rotating head came in handy several times and I was glad to have the feature. I run all of my tools off DeWalt's 18v batteries and I was lucky that I had four of them when I went to the job site. This tool eats the batteries! I use to install garage doors and could install two full-size doors on one battery using my hammer drill, but this tool kills a battery in 10-30 minutes of use. With three batteries charging and one in the tool,... more info

Its awesome, still works no problems. Its tough and the battery lasts a long time. Its Dewalt, so you could drop it from a ladder and it will still work. Just make sure your over grass when you do drop it.
