Tools and Hardware Reviews of DEWALT DW008K-2 24-Volt Cordless Reciprocating Saw Kit

Customer Review: What I know so-far about this new saw
Summary: 5 Stars

Firstly, Dewalt assured me that the saw itself has changed very little from the old model. That being said, this saw is a winner! This thing has a durable look & feel, torque, stroke, etc. that put the 18 v line to shame. It cuts fast and accurately. Though heavier than most cordelss models, it is very well balanced when it matters most... cutting.

The batteries and charger are the main updates.
1. The new kit comes with two batts... the old kit had one.
2. The new batteries are ~2.4 amp hrs, vs. 1.7 with the old (longer run-time).
3. The fans supposedly extend the life-cycle of the saw.

This being said, if I was just shopping for a Dewalt recip, I would buy the new kit. This is especially true if I didn't have additional 24v Dewalt tools or additional batteries. Two batteries are definately better than one. If, however, you already have some 24v tools... the reconditioned kit might be a good value.
