Heavier gauge = more power!
Unlike the less expensive extension cords that are 14 or 16 guage, this one is 12 guage. This important aspect allows you to draw 20 amps of current to opperate your favorites tools without overheating the cord. Remember to plug it into a 20 amp outlet and you'll be able to utilize the the heavier gauge cord for what it was designed for.

Great Quality at a Great Price
This is a must for anyone who works in the yard. The quality is second to none. I use mine on a daily basis and have had NO problems. The yellow color is a must for safety and the molded ends add to is strenghts. If you need a high quality extension cord, no need to look further, buy this one and enjoy!

Excellent extension cord
Have you had trouble with your tools overheating when using them on a long extension cord? Then you need to get a heavy duty, large conductor cord like this one. I really like mine. The power light is also a very handy feature if you sometime tax the GFI outlet a bit too much and want a quick check to see if the cord is still getting power. Now if they would just invent a remote control reset so I wouldn't have to walk all the way back to the circuit breaker.... ... Read more

Very happy with this purchase!
My wife bought me this drill for my birthday and I've been very impressed with it. I've used it to drill large diameter holes and have also used it as a screw gun, it works extremely well in both areas. Everything on the drill seems well made, no small parts to break off. I especially like the 2 fingered trigger and egronomic grip for applying pressure to the bit.

I don't see how anyone could be disppointed with this tool.

Well Built & Great Price
I use Forstner bits for wood boring and this is the best hand drill I have ever used. The high torque and low RPM's are a great combination. If you plan to use wood boring bits with this drill, I recommend using the side grip to avoid injury if there is a kick-back, this drill has that much torque. If I lean on this drill with the full force of my 275 pounds it barely slows. It has handled everything I have thrown at it with no problems. The handle is very comfortable and uses a two finger trigger. The weight is well balanced for a heavy drill.

Excellent Drill
To date this is probably the best drill I have ever owned.
what I was looking for in a drill is Torque, this one has it.
I highly recomend it.

Optimist in Waiting
I am continually impressed with Hitachi tool performance, from the durable NR83a framing hammer to the variety of their smaller power tools like belt sanders and drills. The new recip-saw looks a bit like a fish, we fondly refer to it as "the big bass" when we're faced with a tough cutting job. We are waiting to see if this green machine can outdo anyother red or yellow rival.

I ordered this in August.....! Where the heck is it. In the past Hitachi has not let us down and the same is true for Amazon... so what's up...I've been patient, please find out what the hold up is. ... Read more

Outlasts everything else!!
This battery outlasts everything else I've run into. Battery capacity is excellent. I've used all the other, so take it from me this one is the BEST!! I highly recommend!!

Old battery lasted 7 years
After 7 years of use, I finally had to replace my battery packs. Not bad for an item I have used almost weekly. I highly recommend these, but buy two so you always have battery power.

But it costs a lot ...
I bought a drill with 2 of those batteries. Now after 3 years
of use, the batteries have developed memory effect and have lost
all the juice. I have to buy 2 batteries that means I will be
spending around $35 total. Again after 3 years I will be in same
situation. So I have decided to buy electric drill and get over
with this charging. Also they are more powerful compared to those
drills. BTW there is always an extension cord!!!

Still the best after a year of use.
I have remodeled a three bedroom house, using this battery pack long after my buddy's cordless gives out. While I may not have a much firepower (7.2v max draw) as others, this battery outlasts everything else I've run into. I have only worn this pack down in a single day of work once, installing 3-inch screws into studs.

Best Little Battery Pack
This compact battery assembly provides excellent contact reliability in the tool and in the charger. The retention clips are easy to use and the battery capacity is also excellent. I have used all the others and this one beats the pack. ... Read more

Nice to have an extra one
My wife and I have several of the Versa Pak tools and we found that having an extra charge base and extra set of batteries comes in very handy. We keep one set charging in the house and the extra set charging in the tool shed. If you have more than a couple of Versa Pak tools, you'll need this sooner or later. ... Read more

So So
This stone cuts quickly and is very handy, but I've found that the pattern leaves very visible score lines on the bevel. Maybe these affect sharpness, maybe they don't. It sure doesn't happen with any other stone I've used though and I don't like it. I've begun honing at an angle to the long axis and this solves the problem but effectively shortens the stone.

Great Product
I've had a set of these stones for a couple months now. I've found them to be great for truing up hand planes and for sharpening chisels and plan blades.

Great little stone
For general purpose sharpening this is a great tool to have handy. A must for every woodworker ... Read more

Buy it, Use it
I've purchased two of these.

I'm a small contractor who does many non-structural remodeling jobs. I've been in construction for 15 years and have used many tools and many extension cords.

Since 12 guage cords are commonly available that is primarily what I've used in the past. My experience has been that most of my higher power tools do not run as well on them (even 25 foot cords) as they do when plugged directly into the wall. With the 10 guage cord I can no longer tell the difference.

My 15 amp chop saw, my worm drive saw and my 8 1/2 inch sliding miter saw all run perfectly with the 50 foot extension. I am even able to run my 1 1/2 horsepower Emglo compressor through a 25 foot length. I was never able to do this before -- the compressor was very fussy and I had never been able to use any kind of extension cord with it until I moved to 10 guage. ... Read more

When it comes to recip saws, Milwaukee is the undisputed king, the "Sawzall" name serving almost as a generic label for all reciprocating saws (to Milwaukee's chagrin, we're sure). The flattery is completely deserved, especially when you factor this model into the mix. It's the only cordless recip saw we've seen with orbital blade action for serious cutting jobs, yet it weighs under 6 pounds. Plus, it's incredibly compact and actually fits between 16-inch-on-center studs. Milwaukee's clever reversible battery mount lets you get into spaces other recips can only growl at. Adding to its charm is a six-position handle for even the most awkward cutting angles. And it cuts at an impressive0 to 2,700 strokes per minute. Milwaukee says their Hatchet will cut up to 85 2x4's on a single charge, but we have to admit we didn't test that capability. Milwaukee's Quik-Lok tool-free blade clamp is a breeze to use, and it takes universal 1/2-inch shank Sawzall blades. Tight quarters? Just reverse the blade. The other tool in the set, the Lok-Tor Hammer Drill, is the king of torque. Milwaukee's Lok-Tor models have an all-metal, single-sleeve ratcheting chuck with carbide jaws, so you know the grip is the ultimate. It has to be, because this drill stands ready to deliver 495 inch/pounds of torque. It feels great in hand, thanks to Milwaukee's thoughtfully designed grip and auxiliary handle. There's not a contractor out there who doesn't need this combo.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste ... Read more

Black & Decker’s VersaPak tools are great for the homeowner, and to keep them running, you’ll want some spare batteries. Some advantages to these include their freedom from "memory," which keeps you from getting a full recharge and the fact that you’ll get at least 300 full recharges on each battery. They’ll power all the 3.6-volt VersaPak tools, including the ScumBuster and screwdrivers. Of course, once you buy a VersaPak tool, you don’t have a choice of batteries, but we’ve found these to be reliable and well able to power the 3.6-volt VersaPak line.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste ...

Low power for the replacement 3.6v I ordered
The new Versapak battery I recieved was weaker than the origional five year old battery I still had. One of the two origional batteries quit working and I ordered a new one. The new one delivered only about half the torque to my screw driver and did not last long even after overnight charge. Perhaps I could have just recieved a defective one. I like the B&D cordless driver and will try again to order another one.

Don't hold charge as long as expected
To those people that can not find batteries without the charger, I say you will need at least two chargers at all times. The batteries need to be in a constant state of charge while you are using the others. The shelf life of the charge is pitiful and the length of charged batteries is not anywhere near your project-required time.
On the positive side you can not find a better "versatile" cordless system and this has make it possible for me to do many projects tat would be clumsy if I needed a cord.

Versatile but weak
I've got a number of the Versapack tools including the drill, screwdriver, and mini-circular saw. For small jobs like putting some screws in or cutting thin pieces of wood, they're fine. Anything that will take more than a few minutes of use will require more batteries because they die so quickly. This line would have been a lot nicer if the batteries were more powerful. Also, it would be nice if the chargers told you when the batteries were fully charged.

Good for around the house jobs
I've got a number of versapack tools--drill, flashlight, Wizard, and multipurpose saw. I've found them useful for little short jobs around the house--light and easy to use. The problem is that the batteries run dead almost immediately, so I've ended up having to have a lot of spares charged for those occasiona when I need a tool for more than a few minutes. It's still cheaper than buying a higher end cordless, and since the tools are so light, for small jobs they are a lot nicer to use. ... Read more
