 Battery does not fit November 1, 2008
There is a small tab in the slot where you insert the standard litium battery that has to be cut awau takes a few minutes with a razor knife and is poor design by makita
 Excellent saw, easy blade loading, amazing batteries September 10, 2008
This is a compact recip saw that keeps up with its corded bigger brothers. Its size makes it easy to maneuver in tighter spaces without sacrificing raw cutting power. Not to mention you can take it out in the middle of nowhere or into hard to reach areas such as an attic or crawlspace where there's no power and not have to worry about getting an extension cord tangled up or coming unplugged. Very easy to load blades as they lock securely once you push them into place. Removing them is just as easy by turning the blade holder a quarter turn. But the best thing about this saw is the batteries. They provide tremendous, long lasting power and charge back up in just about a half hour! I've had the batteries last as long as 2-3 days on a drill/driver with fairly constant use. Any other cordless would have died in the middle of the first day and required me to have a handful of batteries pre-charged to continue working. That means more money spent and more heavy crap to lug around and take up space. I only have one battery per tool of this Makita line, and generally only use two (max three) at a time so I always have one (yes, just one) precharged and ready for replacements. The dead battery can be back to work fully charged in half an hour (if I need it)! I have an inverter in the car and if needed I can recharge one or two batteries on the way to the next job!

Nice saw with quick change blade holder. Had a little problem with a no name blade fitting but it was just a blob of paint that once removed was fine. Not as much power as corded but I knew that going in. I am really liking all these LXT Makitas. Pay the extra money and stay away from the cheap stuff unless you only use your tools very rarely.

I use this saw to cut conduit and super strut. I work in an Industrial environment and this has held up very good so far. The saw reciprocates very fast as compared to Rigid.

This saw is a hoss! I have never seen a cordless tool of this type with this much power! Wrapped with plenty of rubber to absorb shock and abuse.
