milwaukee v28 tools

[bandaidman]

anyone own any of them? there is a big sale on them now (buy one kit, get another tool free) and that has got my interest piqued. my main interest would be the sawzall and the circular saw. this would be for homeowner use only but would like to know how the ergonomics are and how long the charge lasts.

i am a long time milwaukee tool fan and have plenty of their corded tools and their 14.4v cordless drill is top notch....

I have Milwaukee tools also and I'd sure like some of the 28V tools but have no need for them. A cordless 28v Sawzall for taking apart a house ,WOW !

You should find runtime/cutting comparisons with Ni-Cad battery tools if you look around. I used to see them in the newsletter Milwaukee sends me.
The Li-Ion batteries are so powerful they make a portable bandsaw that runs off them, and Milwaukee is guaranteeing the batteries for 5 years/2000 charges, whereas most Ni-Cads are good for 450 cycles or less. Actually they're pro-rating it after 1000 charges/2 years, but you get a free replacement up 'til then.
My 18V Milwaukee stuff more than satisfies my needs, but that V28 gear is some serious equipment.
