Anybody have one of those monsters?

I just ordered a bare tool only (DC900/DC900KL) without batteries or a
charger for $85 (US). I have three spare 12V 3.5AH batteries to power
it (for a motorized project, it won't be used for drilling).

??!! Have I been sleeping under a rock? I've not seen this voltage. I use
a 24 volt sawsall constantly in cold weather (pruning apple trees - three
man crew for one unit) Is a sawsall made in 36 volt?

Why sawzall when this Corona baby has a 3" capacity, anything larger I'll
take a chainsaw to it. Using sawzalls to prune and even fell trees before, I
say its not the right tool for this kind of operation - too much vibration,
too slow and use too many blades - a massaciatic delight. Those 36V jobs I
see comes with only one battery and won't last all day, battery craps out
anywhere within 2 to 5 years and expensive to replace assuming if its still
able to get battery replacements five or ten years from now. No thank, I'll
take a corded super duty Milwaukee or Hilti anytime as it should outlast
me - buy once and forget about it.
