Skil 18v. 7 1/4" circular saw

Anybody used this saw yet?

I'm interested in the battery life. Literature says 200 2x4 cuts.


Have a nice one...

I have the dewalt 18 volt. Works well for what I use it for. After a year
the batteries start loosing their life and in 2 years I need new ones at
~$50 a piece. I have even used a diamond blade in mine to score concrete.
Went about 10 feet per battery 1/4 deep.
I was ok with it as my powered tools were to big to get into the area.
I would not try to do a big project with one.

I think the literature is way optimistic.
25% of that (and no southern pine, etc) would
be more realistic.
