I love having the extra power storage however I bought this primarily to use with the circular saw. To make this fit you have to move the saw table down to accommodate the thick battery leaving less depth in cutting capability.

I bought this battery to go with another Ridgid product. Combined they make for an ideal means of charging on cell phone.

Last for ever

Only had for a short while but have been testing it on random pieces of wood and drywall and I have to say it has an excellent feel compared to an old corded milwaukee I had. Not slagging off the milwaukee, it was great, just old and heavy. This is so easy to pickup, slap a battery on it and go. I’ve been slowly replacing my corded tools to the rigid brand of cordless so I can always substitute a battery from one tool to the other. Yes, it’s only been a few weeks but I really like this saw and would recommend.

This recip saw kicks aye ess ess! Love the scrolling feature and the variable drive. Love Rigid products! Their customer service on battery issues leaves me feeling violated and sore, but that’s for another review. Totally recommend this recip saw!

This is a great product. Very powerful and versatile. The variable speed trigger will be very useful. I wish that it would have come with battery though.

I love the convenience of being cordless! The battery didn’t last as long as I anticipated but just swapped it out and away we went!
