It’s a great tool you can use it for many things on the job site

They seem to be lasting longer then the 3.0 I have. Not happy with the charging time, it states it’s a quick charger, but takes an hour to recharge the batteries.

Time will tell. I haven’t had it long enough to see how long it lasts. But it seems to have a lot of power

Works great, feels solid.

The charger works fine, but it does NOT charge up a 6Ah battery, as I had hoped (& as was listed on the packaging & elsewhere). I will be returning this charger & starting all over to research just what kind of charger I need for 6Amphour batteries for my Makita cordless hedge trimmer. Meanwhile, I’m stuck with my old plug-in trimmer (limited distance from house) or the machete & loppers!

Just awesome!

Couldn’t recommend the 5.0 Ah batteries more. Although they are heavier- suck it up, it builds muscle ;). I love that I can count on the quick charge time and how long each battery lasts. Depending what tool, I can go 2-4 hours on one battery using constantly. I now have three of them and watch for deals. I couldn’t be happier.

Love the saw. Great quality
Nicola Ondricka (verified owner) –
Quick cuts! Nice
Nona Russel (verified owner) –
work excellently for uni strut , pipe. conduit,. tubing etc. without the reciprocating saw jumping you get when using with one hand and straighter cuts too, did consider the Milwaukee but the size limitations for uni strut is too small
