- Does the 2950-20 come with a battery?
- No. It is a bare tool, so you need an M18 REDLITHIUM battery and charger, sold separately. Any M18 pack works, though a compact 5.0Ah pack balances it well.
- How is it different from the previous Hackzall?
- The FUEL 2950-20 adds a brushless motor, more power and up to 4x lower vibration than the older brushed model. It also has a pivoting shoe and tool-free blade changes.
- Can it cut metal and PVC pipe?
- Yes, with the right blade. It handles PVC, copper and thin metal well; thick steel is slow because of the short stroke. Use a fine-tooth metal blade for clean cuts.
- Is it a replacement for a full-size Sawzall?
- For most one-handed and overhead work, yes. For heavy demolition or thick lumber, a full-size Sawzall with a longer stroke is faster.
- What blades does it take?
- It uses standard reciprocating saw blades with a universal shank, so Sawzall blades fit. One blade is included.
- How much does it weigh?
- The bare tool is around 3.5 lb; with a 5.0Ah battery it is roughly 5 lb, light enough to use one-handed overhead.
