kruton Posted August 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2015 I really wanted to get that Kruton. I decided to go Makita as opposed to Fuel but I bought a 5.0 Dewalt battery and traded a new Bosch 4.0 for the other one with Madman. My Dewalt 20v saw is doing quite awesome and although I could swing the purchase I just can't see doing it now that I'm running those 5.0 Dewalts. That Makita is a sweet saw though. I will add I love my Dewalt, works way better than my last cordless saw (M18 Non Fuel).Makes sense man. No need to jump into another battery platform since you had the other. That's the main reason I'm looking at the Makita. Since I already have two of the 4.0 batteries figured it only made sense.Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like that though, there is nothing wrong with being brand loyal, but get the best tool for the job. I'm getting ready to get a Fein multitool to use to remodel our bathroom. Figured might as well expand my tool colors to orange!Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swaglosrevival Posted August 20, 2015 Report Share Posted August 20, 2015 The BL beast of a saw is a great buy. It takes care of 2x lumber with no problem. I would go for the BL Saw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeffmcmillan Posted August 21, 2015 Report Share Posted August 21, 2015 I think I'm going to go with the corded.Good choice. No cordless I've used had good runtime. It's about the only handheld tool I still use corded. Hopefully someone follows up Bosch with another brushless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Illini Posted August 21, 2015 Report Share Posted August 21, 2015 Really? Did you have to ask them or was it just that low?Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk I didnt have to ask, they were on clearance for that price here in the northern Illinois area.

Was yours a display model or a new model?Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully someone follows up Bosch with another brushless.There was a big comparison review between multitools on either toolboxbuzz/coptools/protoolreviews/tools of the trades. ( dont remember which one. There is so many sites i follow ) and altho Bosch has a brushless one its runtime was actually lower then some of the brushed Models.
