That set listed there is the DCK494p2 set.

 

So if I want the brushless circ saw, does it have to be the 7 1/4" version?  

 

This set here comes with the 5.0ah batteries, correct?

I believe they are 5ah you'll want to check and be sure what the batteries are. The circ saw is preference

From what I have seen, the 6 1/2" version is not brushlesss unless I missed something

 

NVM about that, seems the dcs393 is brushless.  Some places doesn't say that.

It's really hard to say who should or shouldn't buy brushless because everyone uses tools differently.  At work I love the runtime we get with brushless tools but doing small projects around the house brushed tools are more than adequate for me.  That being said we ran the brushed recip. saws on our construction sites for years and while they can be battery hungry in certain situations, I would think a couple 4.0ah or 5.0ah batteries would keep you pretty satisfied.  I'm no expert when it comes to circular saws but I know there was a topic not to far back that was discussing the dcs570 and there were a number of guys who said for a 20v saw they prefer the brushed dcs393 with a 6.0ah battery over the brushless dcs570.  I guess what I'm trying to get at is brushless isn't neccesary for everyone.

Dewalt does not make a 6-1/2 in 20v max saw that is brushless.
