This kit comes with two Fat Pack battery for longer runtime and saw blades to get you started right out of the box.
Portable Cutting Power


At 8.25 pounds, including the Fat Pack battery, this lightweight band saw is extremely portable, making it an ideal tool for use in overhead applications like electrical work. And the 18-volt lithium-ion battery helps prevent overheating in tough applications and protects motor from overload damage. Despite its compact size, the rugged aluminum base is durable enough to withstand tough jobsite conditions.

The band saw is designed with the battery pack above the handle, giving you an ergonomic and balanced feel on both sides.

Never a disappointment with Bosch tools. This thing is a work horse that is so much faster and safer than using a sawsall. I am a commercial/industrial electrician and the size, power, run time and speed of using this thing is beyond belief. Love this thing!


5.0 out of 5 stars Much better than a sawzall for certain tasks, April 29, 2012

This review is from: Bosch BSH180-01 18-Volt Li-Ion Compact molded Band Saw Kit (Tools & Home Improvement)
I install a lot of custom cut 1" metal railing in my business, we generally use sawzalls or 120volt portable bandsaws to cut them. This device has made the process much easier and cleaner. The precision of the cuts and manueverablity of the saw are unparrelleled. The batteries run all day and provide access to the entire jobsite without running xt cords all over. Is it going to replace your sawzall? Nope, not with a 2" depth of cut but it can do a better job than your sawzall on many smaller tasks.
