The saw was bought for its tasks - quickly sawing a board on the street, when you twist something in haste, sawing a pack of corrugated cardboard to the desired size in production. He copes well with these tasks. For everything else, there is a network tool - a circular saw, trimming, electric jigsaw. When a saw is not needed every day, and even for a maximum of 10-15 minutes to complete its tasks, a 12 Volt tool with a 2Ah battery is enough in my opinion. I have exactly that and this saw fits perfectly under such tasks. If I were a professional builder and used a similar tool all day long - for example, I would build carcasses, then I would probably take a closer look at an 18 Volt tool and take 5 Ah batteries. But if you just build a small gazebo for yourself - such a saw will help and it will be enough.
