- Is this saw good enough for framing?
- For light framing and trim, yes. For repeated cuts in thick dimensional lumber, a corded or higher-voltage saw is faster and less likely to bog down.
- Does it come with a battery and charger?
- Yes, this is a kit, so it includes a 20V Max battery and charger. Check the listing for the exact battery capacity, since kits vary.
- Will my other Black & Decker 20V batteries fit?
- Yes, it uses the 20V Max battery system, so packs from other Black & Decker 20V tools fit. Higher-capacity packs give longer runtime.
- How does it compare with the brushed 20V version?
- The brushless motor delivers more torque and longer runtime per charge. It is the better pick if you cut often; the brushed model is fine for occasional use.
- What can it cut?
- It handles plywood, softwood boards, decking and shelving. It is not suited to thick hardwood or wet lumber, where the motor will slow.
- Does it have an electric brake?
- Most versions of this saw do not have an electric brake, so the blade coasts to a stop. Let it stop before setting it down.
