Ah, what do you want to use it for? Kinda makes a difference.



Hi,
Fencing, decking, retaining wall work kinda thing, some pruning maybe out
at cabin. I have AC power available out there. I just feel cordless might
not be powerful enough but then I never used this type of saw before.

A reciprocating saw is hardly ideal for pruning. I use a hand saw or (drum
roll please) my Ryobi cordless chain saw. I once used it to make 10 cuts on
some 4" trees on one battery. If I had had my gas saw out at the cottage it
would have been a better choice, but the Ryobi worked. I don't think a
cordless reciprocating would have. Worst thing about the Ryobi is that the
oil leaks and make a mess between uses.

It will work on your other projects, but will make a couple cuts on 4x4s per
battery. Corded is a better choice for serious cutting.
