Selecting the right
cordless saw is a similar process to selecting any power saw. Form, as
they say, follows function, so the important thing is to choose the right
saw for the job. The cordless saw’s…well, cordlessness only
factors into the equation in the added weight the battery adds and the
need to recharge said battery, limiting use time.
