When it comes to power best jigsaw the choice used to be limited to the corded electric type, for all practical purposes. Until recently, the kind of jigsaw that you need to connect to your mains was the tools that are powerful and reliable enough to cut through not just softwoods, but also harder materials such as hardwoods, ceramics or even metal.
Nowadays, though, cordless power tools have come a long way – and cordless jigsaws are no exception. Newer lithium ion batteries now offer more capacity, longer battery life, and better charging characteristics, to the extent that manufacturers can now put in more powerful motors in cordless jigsaws.
