Great Review Dan, Just got this saw and its great!!
I have the Dewalt 20V Max Brushless Drill which came with the 2AMP batteries. I would like get this 20V Max Circ. Saw(bare tool) but want to know if the 2AMP batteries are sufficient to power the saw. I emailed Dewalt but have not received a response. Can y’all answer my question or provide a recommendation? Thanks!!
My understanding they will, but the run time will be very bad and not really worth it. I haven’t tested this with a 2 amp battery, but I tried on a different manufacturer and it wasn’t even worth it.
Thanks Eric! That’s what I was thinking as well, so I will likely go with a corded circ. saw. I’m a weekend warrior diy guy so I don’t need the heavy duty hardware. Probably the Dewalt DWE575 or Ridgid Fuego, both for the light weight. Any recommendations for a light weight but good quality circ. saw? Thanks again!
