The Milwaukee 2930-20 is an 18V cordless rear-handle circular saw built for framing and heavy carpentry. Its brushless POWERSTATE motor and REDLINK PLUS electronics give it power and speed close to a corded saw, and the magnesium base keeps weight down. A 2-5/8-inch cut capacity lets it cut 3x lumber in one pass, and bevel detents at 22.5 and 45 degrees speed up common cuts. It suits framers, remodelers and contractors already on the M18 battery platform; against rear-handle rivals it trades a little weight for strong power and deep cut capacity.
