- Does the DCS379B come with a battery and charger?
- No. It is sold as a tool only, so you need a 20V MAX battery and charger, or an existing DeWalt 20V setup.
- How many cuts can it make on one charge?
- DeWalt rates it at up to 120 cuts per charge through 12-gauge strut, and a single cut takes as little as 5.1 seconds. Real numbers depend on the battery size and the material.
- What is the dual trigger for?
- The second trigger sits on the auxiliary handle, so both hands are on triggers during a cut. That gives steadier control on the foregrip, especially overhead or at odd angles.
- What can the 3-3/8-inch capacity cut?
- It handles common metalworking stock such as 12-gauge strut, conduit and threaded rod. Larger solid stock and deep profiles are beyond its throat.
- Is it worth it over a compact one-hand bandsaw?
- If you cut strut and conduit all day, the larger capacity and two-handed control are the draw. If you mostly make quick one-handed cuts in tight spots, a compact saw is easier to handle.
- Which batteries does it use?
- It runs on DeWalt 20V MAX batteries, including the XR packs. Larger Ah packs give more cuts per charge at the cost of weight.
