I’m a plumber and I actually use this for work:
For the price this is actually a great tool. It’s not as powerful as the m18 hackzall because it’s not even in the same class but it’s been my go-to saw since it came out on a daily basis.
Skip whatever is going on in this video and just get one, if you want more power get the m18 hackzall, that’s as simple as this needs to be.
Yea its perfect for tight spaces and on your back and such.
get you a milwaukee guts so much faster
Your description says you weren't impressed with the saw, but the video seemed overall positive. So... Do you like it or not? 🤔
I like the saw
Right. It literally says "(big price small power)".......But then he says he likes it 🤔
like it
Lol
Click bait..it worked..
As a renovations contractor I am loving the smaller tools that we tend to find useful day to day. Highly used tools are impact, oscillation saw, and 4-1/2” circular saw. We are simply finding that the heavier larger tools just aren’t necessary for the most part. Next add will be the 7-1/4” miter saw.
I completely agree. I've been slowly transitioning to smaller tools. I still have larger, more powerful ones for some bigger jobs but 90% of the time - smaller is better.
Been a long time viewer but he's losing me pretty quick, definitely Milwaukee bias and very clickbaity type material lately. Popularity is getting to his head
If Dewalt loses to older version on Milwaukee and you claim Dewalt is better isn't that biased.
@@smperkins410 DeWalt 60v flexvolt tools have the power of corded electric. WS did a test, corded worm drive skilsaw vs. 60v worm drive saw and the cordless was nearly twice as fast at rip cuts. I have their 60v string trimmer, the low setting alone is more powerful than both my 25cc green weedeater and 31cc ryobi trimmer. I'm a believer in the power. The only problem is you're still limited to battery duration and extra 60v flexvolt batteries makes my wallet cry...
@@smperkins410 no what he meant is that vince is clearly a milwaukee fan and everything that isn't milwaukee is bad, these videos are 100% clickbait and the sad part in all of that is that vince should be 100% neutral not to bias every videos. I'm a dewalt fan and I have no problem saying that some of milwaukee stuff is better than dewalt vice versa, tho saying ''DO NOT BUY THIS ... DEWALT UNIMPRESSED ME'' is kinda stupid in my opinion
You're right, I agree. Any reviewer should be impartial to any tool. If they're good, then they're good.
@@smperkins410 u do now tools have tech that will protect u from breaking ur arm. The only thing is in tougher jobs ur battery will run out and because of the heat, it will burn out more batteries just as fast if not faster. But now tools are way more compact with the same power. And try using a Corded tool with 0 power.
I'm a tinner and i love this saw for cutting hole in the roof for bathfan and vents.
"....just lay it down!" Meanwhile, half of tools on the shelves are standing on the batteries😂
😆😂🤣 👍
Plus serious sagging shelves. Really???
Mechanics worst truck is his own..
I am a plumber and had this saw for a month.Its pretty bloody good if you use it what it was designed for
The atomic runs smoother less vibration than the milwaukee compact recip saw. I work in singleply roofing and this tool is way better than than the res brand. Also we really don't need a heavy duty recip saw for cutting insulation and dens deck.
I had to grab my m18 brushed Hackzall today with my pruning blade to trim a branch to get a Uhaul under. I've cut so many branches up into logs that the blade should be worn but the pain is off it and still cuts like butter. I grew to like the Milwaukee version even more after the TTR.
I'm Milwaukee all the way but this atomic hack saw is absolutely amazing. Definitely good for more detailed and tight space cutting. Especially when you are cutting stuff next to other trades work. Amazing little saw
I have the old 12v saw and still use it for light work in cabinets or working above my head on top of the ladder. I love the light weight, ability to get in tight places and controlablity. The 5/8 stroke is good for cutting sheetrock and not snagging romex behind. I also have the dewalt subcompact 20v for tougher stuff and a full size. Everything has it's purpose. I'm not going to compare this to a full size like some of y'all. I'll wait till the price drops on this or perhaps a 12v version comes out. I did try it out at a demo when it came out and liked the feel for fine work more that the Milwaukee. When I'm working in fine cabinetry control is more important than speed.
you're absolutely right that tool control is better than power when it comes to delicate material
The reason why in Europe the tools are 18V is because that a product in Europe must get a CE certificate instead of the UL equivalent in USA one. In order to get the CE certificate the item must not only be safe to use (that is what the UL guarentee and only guarantee that) BUT also to be described scientifically correct. Stict speaking the lithium cell is by definition 3.6V and when charged fully is 4.0 Volt. So 5 cells give 18Volt or 20Volt Maximum charge. So strickly speaking the battery is 18Volt and that is what the CE enforce to describe it as 18V.
I bought one today because I needed it for some light work and love it. If I wanted more power I would just use one of my corded reciprocating saws.
It's a great tool for light demo/finer cuts. I'm sure this crowd would love it if it was wearing their team colors.🤔
couldn't agree more! I borrowed my buddy's at work for the day and loved it!
We use compact recip as electricians to fit into small places and to cut emt on a ladder or a lift. Mostly demo work.
You cutting that thing in half in the old video was awesome please do more videos like that haha. Had me rolling
Thx for the review! Happy hump day 😊
Im a plumber and my buddy has the milwaukee m12 hackzall and it comes in handy. This tool isnt designed to have a lot of power but for comfort and ease of use. When im cutting pvc, i have to hold the pipe in one hand and only have one hand to hold sawzall.
J3tfuel I agree, I have the m12 fuel and it’s awesome. Perfect for cuts inside cabinets and other tight spots where a full size sawzall can be destructive.
When a Milwaukee tool sucks its "Not what I expected" when a Dewalt tool sucks its "DO NOT BUY!!!"
Biased much?
He is advising us against buying this or any DeWalt tool for that matter as he won't get a kick back from DeWalt like he does if you buy a tool from Milwaukee that he has recommended.🧐🙄🤪🤔🤔😁🤭🤭
thedrummerification It’s something you have to bear in mind with this channel, he is very biased towards any brand besides Milwaukee
(Sirens) Dewalt fan boy vs milwaukee fan boy
It's the right tool for precision especially metal where you ought to cut with more control and slower speed. It's good but doesn't replace a full sized one. I have both and carry them both with me everyday
......5/8” is less than ¾ 😂
Gotta love Vince doing an unboxing👍🏻
I bought it. I like it. Not as powerful as the monster saws but there's a place for more precise, single-handed ergonomics. I like brute force monster tools too but there's places where compact has an advantage over monster.
I used it for the first time last week and I did buy one because cutting a bulkhead for in from the ceiling it is perfect metal studs in a wall
The cerwin Vegas in the background are amazing 👏
I always read when sitting down 😂
I’ve both Milwaukee and dewalt compact resip saws I can’t tell the difference they’re great at what they do one handed use is equally great ergonomics. I own this saw it’s the only atomic peace of equipment I own no regrets
L
Which from both is better ?
This power tool is perfect for plumbers cutting PVC pipe. I just ordered two for both of my service vans.
Almost bought one, good save. Went with XR compact instead thanks to your videos.
Also with the compact size could be used as a pruning saw.
150 k by the new year
You sure seem to be very knowledgeable about short strokes.
How are you going to complain about the tool standing up on the battery when you have 9 drill in the background doing that exact same thing.
If anything this video convinced me to buy one.
Also your title states not enough power. Please understand that this is a one handed tool which was mainly created for cutting things above your head. So if a person is seeking more power wouldn't you tell them to choose the DeWalt DCS367 reciprocating 2 hand saw?
does the smaller 5/8” stroke affect the cutting speed vs 1-1/8” stroke?
What about the dewalt extension ladder let me know what you think about it and why hd don't have them in stores?
I’m interested in this because of the short stroke. The m12 Milwaukee is a comparable stroke but in my case, I need a larger battery platform and smaller stroke than the 7/8 stroke on the M18 version. This may just fit the Bill.
The tool wasn't made for power but to use on delicate work and can be handle in with on hand ,
Great tool , it's good for plumbers electricians , not demo lotion ,
Could be meant for furniture or upholstery as well, sort off light commercial work
Great video Vince
in what video can i witness you go through the full process of cutting a sawzall with a sawzall?
Picked up one for $99 and works great for tight spaces
hi, where was it $99? Home depot? Seems its $149 now there
I couldn’t wait to get my hands on this tool, once I bought, I was disappointed with the tool. However I did notice it work better with a 5amp battery then the 2 amp battery.
The larger batteries hold power better though the load. Without cutting or drilling they all sound the same.
Thinking about one for a bone saw for hunting season meat processing.
I’d say this saw was more for sparkys and plumbers it works really good to cut emt
i'd say milwaukee and makita have better subcompact recip offerings
I use the smaller dewalt bandsaw.
Even before that I never had a problem cutting emt one handed with the regular size xr recip
Band saw and metal circular saw are better
as a plumber i use this to cut ABS/PVC pipe and its awsome when i bought it i new i wasent going to cut a house out with it , people act like it should be as powerful as the 60 volt saw
There is a 12v extreme recip saw. I have one. Love it.
I am refrigerant my tools are dewalt only now i dont need that tool so much sometimes i need to cut wood or plasterboard to pass through as for metal things i am not gonna use that tool i have the big dewalt grinder and the small one cover me perfect. Does it worth overall for small compact cuts and lets say for big branches in house ?
Used one of these the other day and I'm literally gonna buy it now
I got this as part of a combo and it works fine
I really like there atomic multi tool it's fast and well made definitely don't regret buying it.
Were getting it soon, pre ordered the circ saw.
Thanks for the review. Why does dewalt have so many lines or form factors? It's confusing now... especially for new people who's wanting to buy the best tools or one of the best tools.
For me, I want to have either the best performing tool or close to the best performing tools. What do you recommend?
I just bought the $atomic brushless 6 combo tool special at home depot for $399.
Is that a good deal with a good performance?
I bought the atomic reciprocating saw but I’m really waiting for Dewalt to release the xr version to this saw then I’ll be happy
Just curious if the 12v and 20v batteries will fit this saw?
Hoping for X12 to grow!!! I'm not jumping in until I see some more stuff that's worth it. I made the mistake with Bosch; never again. They better start planning the ATOMIC line to be the 59.99 specials.
what do you think of it now
Finally a reviewer for us sub 400 credit score framers and drywallers. This is content I can understand
🤘😮🤘
Could you potentially do this vs the milwaukee sawzell. maybe cutting PVC pipe if you can.
My dad, when asked his favorite color would answer, Sky-Blue Urple.
🤣🤣👍🏻
Which battery is better i mean how many cuts with 1 loading ? - Milwaukee or DeWalt 18v (4ah vs 4ah), (5ah vs 5ah) ?
Where can u buy this from I live in aus and can’t find it anywhere
This is not the best one handed recip saw obviously. But I bleed yellow so I made a sacrifice buying this over investing in the fuel platform. After several big tree limbing jobs, i no longer regret it. This is the first tool that goes up the tree with me for pruning out smaller limbs. With a 9” fleam ground pruning blade( haven’t tried the carbide pruning blade yet but it might work better), this rips through smaller green limbs faster than the heavier arbor chain saw. My ability to move my body around in the tree is so much faster and more comfortable when I’m using this saw. Buy the fuel version if you already have m18
If I had to get into tight places and cut PVC or smaller framing lumber I'd buy it. But I'll wait for it t com to CPO as refurbished.
Yo there Vince we get a line Called XR which is a 18volt platform smashed the like button
You've been in RARE form recently, Vince, digg'n the comedy
This sawzall with a diablo thick metal blade ... Beautiful Combo
What batteries does it use mine don’t fit
Interesting info eventually. This video makes me thankful for the right arrow button on my keyboard.
Why would you skip? I hope you would appreciate my hard work a little more.....
That box opening was impressive
Hey very cool gang lol, I have not seen the atomic in Europe but u never know what 2020 will bring,
I bought the Milwaukee which is overall superior, but for tight plumbing work I would consider the De Walt.
The 12v Xtreme Recip is very similar to the Atomic, but with a fixed shoe.
Exactly one hand saw is obviously for cutting small things in tighter locations. Otherwise I'm using my full size 2 handed reciprocating. I used 1 of these borrowed and it was awesome tool.
Milwaukee fan and own tools all the way 🙌
I own all DeWalt, so it's a lot cheaper than buying new batteries, charger, etc. I like light weight. Not goint to replace my sawzall, for sure.
I like this guy.
by spec, the Atomic is definitely a lower tier dewalt product line. the XR being there bigboy tier. the upside to these little guys is the 5/8 stroke. that's the selling point. the larger ones have 1-1/8"+ stroke. now that's not a problem if you cutting into big deep cavities, or just saw-horsed panels. but if your trying to control a shallow cut, and keep the blade from smashing into something else in the hole (like sprinkler lines, electrical boxes, drains, water lines, block/brick etc...) the short stroke it very helpful. nobody likes bending the shit outta a blade, or snapping the tip off. especially a brand new blade. and with blade prices nowadays, not shanking them is a plus. honestly if your doing serious work/demo involving a receip-saw, your probably better off going hard with a 60v or corded model. these little guys are great to have in the tool bag, "in case shit" as not much is less fun than grabbing a receipblade with pliers to cut one damn little thing. rigid had my favorite short stroke corded. thing was so tiny, but amazing for shallow work if you had ac available.
I wonder is the craftsman version would be a great competitor to this. It has the same stroke and I believe better stroke length at .75 vs dewalt with .625
Man, i'm glad you said something. Been wanting this tool bad, but couldn't find one. What about the Milwaulkee version ???????????????????????????????
Bought this tool yesterday...had no problem cutting door hinges and cutting out the b pillar in my parts car
I’ll still buy it.
I stick to brands I don’t stop buying them because of one or two bad tools.
Get over it eventually they will FIX, REPLACE or ADD ON to it.
Happy Wednesday VCG and the gang! Have a great day ! Keep up the good job ! 🤙
any plumbers on here use this with galvanized pipe, copper or brass pipe?? Thanks
Yo fellas! You cut it in half! Lolololol!
Yo Amos!!
Drop the atomic...expand the Xtreme!!!
In the future extreme has a Sawzall now. #always lay it down. Just got one for 149 with powerstack starter kit.
I bought one pre-covid for $99. I use it with wood pruning blades, one-handed-easily. Also good to dismantle scrap!. I wouldn't pay 149.00$
There are not any videos at all on skil 12 volt recip saw. Nobody has done one yet.
hi vince. I am French and therefore live in French. I would like to buy a MAKITA-B-62103 blade. but she is not available france. I only find it in your home. could you help me get it?
It’s great for small work
I need a one handed XR
I bought one today...$99.00
I went with...
3amp battery. Duo set. $99.00
Next Im getting the duo charger.
It feels alright.
Vibrations low...stroke is short.
But I know why they did that.
Safety yellow...
Tomorrow I have to get a drill.
Any recommendations.
Preferably XR...Brushless.
I’ve got the full size cordless 20v dewalt saw and work with a couple guys who use a Milwaukee 18v full size saw. We’re plumbers and I’m the only one who can cut pvc straight. Soooo in my opinion dewalt is king. 😁🤣😂
Like button done. Comment done!
What is really good Sawzall to buy bro!!?
Great video as always guys! I have a request though, if possible please compete both dewalt xtreme subcompact 12v impact driver vs the dewalt 20v 885 impact driver. On paper the 12v is more powerful in every way. Please compare when and if possible. Thanks guys!
Title is confusing, but I own dewalt and i like it but milwaukee is more compact and sounds meaner. But dewalt holds its own. I got the xr drill shipping to my house and I'm so pumped!!
got mine for 108 after tax at the homeless desk spot works great
Just watched the video, and nothing really bad to say about the DeWalt saw in it, but the blurb describing the video is straight up bias. I just bought the DeWalt saw in this video and I could not be happier with it.
The funny thing is the new Makita 40v is literally a 36v Nominal system just like there x2 but with a single battery they’re just being weirdos by calling it 40v and needlessly throwing marketing at a problem that doesn’t exist
I assume they worried that 36v x2 customers would panic or it would look like they’re backpedaling by using a 36v Single battery system suddenly etc and...it does, only time will tell.
Calling it 40v max to ME is like a sticker that says don’t worry, we aren’t trying to screw you, just your family. If voltage mattered to that degree Milwaukee 18v wouldn’t be kicking most 36 & 40v tools butts. That’s not a fanboy statement. I don’t want that to be true, but It is. Go look at all the higher voltage tools, most of them are still spec’ed below Milwaukee fuel’s numbers. That’s all she wrote.
Do a TTR vs m12 fuel hackzall
LMAO he used a sawzall to cut it in the dewalt half... i didnt expect that
I disagree. This atomic saw has virtually no vibration and has been a godsend to my appliance installation work. The short stroke and smooth operation has proven to be superior when cutting in the exhaust hole in the wall behind over the range microwaves. We use it for everything on our install jobs and I will say it's actually perfect. We love the atomic line because the value is there.
I’m glad it works for you, that’s what counts!
@@VCGConstruction When punching through the 3x10 inch ducting located behind the sheetrock it sure is nice to have a short stiff blade and short stroke which guarantees I won't punch through the backside. And the almost non existent vibration makes it cut faster with no wall damage. Vibration makes a recip saw cut slow. This atomic saw cuts fast, clean, while retaining my teeth!
I agree. I’ve been loving the atomic saw for my work. I don’t do cuts like I’m in a race. I need cuts to be straight and I dont care if they take a few seconds more.
Good tool.
I'd love to see the Xtreme line grow more myself. Wasnt impressed with the atomic recip. Im pretty sure my 12V makita will outlast it
Ilike the compact sizeand power of it , but the blade chuck and lock are made of steel and rusted quickly in a marine environment.
