Just keep in mind that you cannot use 20v batteries with this saw. It only uses the 60v flexvolt batteries.

The batteries themselves can be used with 60v or 20v tools.

I just purchased this yesterday for $340 but it comes with a 9ah flexvolt battery and charger. Is this a better deal? Then buying a battery separately?

It sounds like you should have saved half of your money and just got the 20V version

Pretty much a wash if you paid full price for battery, but in general the best way to ge batteries is in package deals like the one you bought.

This is certainly a better deal for those who are already in 60V Flexvolt system, but worth keeping an eye out for the separate battery deals that pop up if you just reallllly want this.

Yea, I already have a 20v one. Not a fan how it struggles cutting through anything more than plywood or a 2x4

This one is a completely different animal.The 60v dewalt really does cut like a corded saw.

Also keep in mind that the flexvolt batteries are HEAVY. Depending on what you are cutting, mo powah may not be necessary.

If you are cutting 2x pressure treated lumber, maybe. If you are cutting plywood, probably not.

I had this and eventually sold it and downsized to the 20v. It is definitely better overall then the 20v, bigger blade, way more power, etc but for what I need it for the 20v is fine. I've used the 20v for plywood, some 4x4 cedar posts, and a bunch of 2x4s. The 60v I used on thick 1 1/2" oak and stuff like that.
I had a corded Makita and I'd say this 60v stands up to it without question. The 20v doesn't but again depends on your use.

If you cut right handed you may not like the blade on the right side of the saw as it is on this 578, I'm looking for the left hand blade 577.
