well welcome back to the Steve Rob Hall today see right here I got a package let's take a
look at this little bid that I did during the summertime just a small little clip of what's
going on today and it's from my five-part series on my own house build use guys check this out
see won't even finish cutting the whole thing on one fully charged battery let's go get another
battery okay you see that right there well I'll tell you what I got that resolved and attend this
box let's go over here let's check it out okay so as you could see in that clip there yeah guys I
was struggling with this thing for many years now I'll show you this is from back in 2012
this brand-new battery here and of course I got to label everything 2016 and guys this 18 volt
it sucked so bad I'm telling you it would not go through a full 8 foot length of that smart siting
now I have to say that smart siting is pretty tough stuff but yeah what I did was I went and
got another saw the guys I could not believe it I picked this up off an Amazon and they do
make here's my saw here like it's not brand new or anything I've used it a lot and it's been a
terrific saw tell you what but it's just no good for a lot of the work that I'll be doing up at the
camp next year I'll be cutting a lot of sheets so that's smart siding ok so this is the rig here on
the end and they they do make an adapter that kind of snaps into the back of that and then you can
slide your 20 volt batteries in because I do have my Dewalt impact wrench guys that things off the
wall is just fantastic I've got 220 volt batteries with it and yeah you can you can slide the 20 volt
battery up on this thing and it'll work great in that and I thought you know what that's what I'm
going to do but what did I do I took a look at the price guys it was almost half the price of
this saw and I thought why even bother I mean this is a an older saw now Amazo just upgrade so let's
take a look in the box and one thing I did notice this guys this on the box here this right here and
it seems to imply that there's a lift on lithium battery in there now I never ordered any battery
I just ordered the 20 volt bear saw the same as the 18 volt except in 20 volt let's take a look
yeah I thought that was pretty interesting and let's just take a look here and see
because there shouldn't be any battery in here that's okay
all it just says 20 volt lithium ion I don't think there's any battery in here let's take
a look wouldn't that be nice guys I could not believe like it doesn't make sense to buy that
18 volt 220 volt converter for what for almost the same price as the saw okay let's take a look here
guys you ever try and get some of this stuff okay there we go and it does come with a blade in there
so the old do come with a blade and instructions and that's about it so this is pretty much the
same doohickey here you know and you can see it's different on the back here I can slap in a twenty
bolt and away I go and guys I couldn't believe it so I'm going to be trying it out this summer I'm
not gonna do any review on it right now but guys I know it's it's going to be a lot better I've
seen a lot of a lot of people use this on YouTube and guys they're cutting through with like sheets
and sheets and see this the 20 volt and up is the way to go and yeah I mean for the money I couldn't
how do you pass this up I mean I'm gonna put a clip in here of I'll just show a picture of the
this little adapter and how much they charge for that so I thought that was pretty interesting you
know like why buy that adapter when you can just buy the whole machine for almost well I would say
around half the price almost so okay guys thanks for joining in just thought I'd show you that I
mean it's uh it's cold here it's in the winter and I'm not cut no wood right now so thanks for
