1/8 horsepower, 7/8" cutting stroke... should be fine for
balsa. What did you want to use it for?

The 85 amp current must just be on startup :-)

If you are going to do anything thicker than a quarter inch or so,
especially any hardwoods, I would look elsewhere.

Change the color and I have an identical, or nearly identical unit in
the basement. Fine for things up to 1/2" in black walnut, beyond that
it doesn't do well. Price is good, but check the shipping. Also, no
blade guides, you can expect it to walk unless you've got a more
sensitive touch than I have.
