Greenworks GCS80420

One of the most powerful saws in the group, the Greenworks cut fast without bogging down. The 2-amp-hour battery provided only about half as many cuts as saws with 4- to 6-amp-hour batteries. We liked that the oil reservoir level was easy to see. This helps prevent messy overfilling. If you’re looking for a powerful saw with a long bar and don’t mind the shorter run-time and the absence of a tool-free chain tensioner, this is a good choice.

Milwaukee M12 and M18 Battery Charger

If you’re going to run cordless tools you’d better have a good charging station to stay powered. Milwaukee’s got that covered with its six-port sequential battery charger. It has three M12 ports and thee M18 ports so if you’ve got some of both — you’re alright. Check out our buyer’s guide to cordless tools before you cut the cord.

Air mattresses, inflatable beds, tires, balls, swimming pools—we spend a lot of time fiddling with hand pumps and air compressors. Black+Decker has made life easier with its Multi-Purpose Inflator.

  • Onboard storage for power cords and air hoses.

  • The ability to deflate air mattresses and other inflatables using the hose attached to the end of the inflator.
  • A digital gauge for checking the existing air pressure and setting the target pressure (with automatic shutoff).

This saw has plenty of power. Equipped with a 60/20V battery, it also has a long run-time—which you may need, because this saw will perform well on virtually any job. The blade is on the right, the same side as on most corded saws, so you’ll feel right at home when you use it.

Makita XSR01 Circular Saw

This saw differs from the others in several ways: It takes two 18V batteries and delivers awesome power and exceptional run-time. Of all the cordless circular saws we tried, it performed most like a corded saw. It’s also large and heavy. It’s a great tool for big, tough jobs, but maybe not your best choice for standard duty.
