    This tool lives up to its promise: a lightweight tool for light-duty work. Perfect for cutting foam, plastics, or light wood.
    It allows for long sessions without hand or wrist fatigue.
    The dual trigger is a real plus.
    And the safety system is a real pain...
    So much so that I took it apart to find a tool that's actually usable and ergonomic in real-life conditions.

    I’m a sprinkler fitter and cut a lot of blaze 1” tubing . Very light weight I run it on a 2 Ah battery to keep it light weight for over head work . The two trigger option is a great application. Pulled it out of the box slapped a battery on it and it came with two blades ready to use.

    This guy is probably good for light duty, me as a plumber just use it to cut the PVC pipes, also it needs to take time to learn how to use it because the shape of handel is a littel bit wired.
