This battery-powered reciprocating saw is compatible with any of DeWalt's 20V batteries —if you already own other 20V tools, you can use those same batteries to power this rig. The saw measures just 14.5 inches long, so it can fit in between studs and in other small spaces, and it weighs just 5 pounds without the battery. It can utilize a wide array of saw blades , and you can mount the blade either vertically or horizontally to suit your specific cutting needs. The saw has a 1 ⅛-inch stroke length, and it can saw up to 2,900 strokes per minute to make quick work of most tasks. It’s also designed to be comfortable and convenient to use: The saw features an ergonomic trigger grip for fine-tuned control, and it even has a built-in LED light to illuminate your work area.

It’s no surprise this saw is a bestseller: Shoppers say it's powerful, easy to use, and built like a tank. “The power and efficiency it offers are outstanding, making tasks like cutting through wood and metal straightforward and quick,” a shopper said, adding that it's “a robust and versatile tool that has significantly improved my DIY endeavors.”
