With the reciprocating saw I would go with the battery option. If you use more than one battery in a day, carry a spare. If you get the same brand of tools often the batteries are interchangeable.

I know lying is wrong, but if the elephant man came in now in a blouse with some make up on, and said, "How do I look?" Would you say, bearing in mind he's depressed and has respiratory problems, would you say, "Go and take that blusher off you mis-shapened elephant tranny?" No. You'd say, "You look nice... John""

I figured with father's day approaching that retailers would have some kind of deals going on for tool sets. The reciprocating saw I am torn between battery or plugin option. I haven't come across a situation yet where I needed it in the field, but have a few projects in the garage that could be demolished quickly if used. Although there are many of items I have passed on the roadside because it will not fit in my car. Not sure on what to do.

If my car is handy, I use an inverter clipped to my car battery and a 50 ft. cord with my ole Milwaukee Sawzall, I can take it just about anywhere. I can also run a small 3/8 drill or a small grinder off the inverter.Originally Posted by Rollyrogers33

I'd think that sawzall uses a lot more current than a 3/8 drill? (would like to have an inverter though)
Far as power or portability, if you're out in the field you'll want something that'll get the job done the first time, and not have to go back. If you're standing at a workbench for hours you'll want something that doesn't wear you out for no reason other than "it worked in the field". I find an assortment of tools works best for me, and if I don't have it, just gotta make do with what you've got
