I have one ... so rarely used that it might be for sale. ;)

I bought it when I moved to my new location a couple of years ago, had no
electricity for the first few months, and didn't want to go without a router
for stuff I couldn't do easily by hand.

Have barely used it since the contractor's pole was put in and I could
finally wire the shop. IMO, it is simply NOT that _great_ of an idea in
practice, although it served its purpose and does a good job.

I used it quite a bit with a Leigh Dovetail jig and just left it set up for
that most of the time. I'll be glad to answer any questions you have about
it.

My worry is power more than anything, I have a 3/4 HP router that's my
main use router, and it's light but it lacks power sometimes. My
second choice after the cordless would be the 693, I could use the
plunge base as well. My 1 3/4 HP router that's a pain to use would be
replaced by either the cordless or the 693.
