This tool is AWESOME! Every car guy needs one of these. I purchased mine from Lowes and it's paid for itself over already. Makes quick work of cutting any material such as exhaust pipes, body panels, etc. (even wood, tree limbs, etc with a wood blade) Take it with you to the junkyards and jobsite as no electricity is needed. Put this on your tool wish list for sure!

Pros:
|
Worked good for a few years
|
|
Cons:
|
Battery died, expensive to replace
|
|
Just to update, the battery died after a few great years of service. Over time, I noticed it needing more charges and putting out less operating time. The tool itself is still in great working condition but to replace the battery would be around $40 bucks. So far, it's sitting on my broken tool pile. Not sure I want to spend that much for a battery.
Also, the Firestorm line has been discontinued. (batteries are still available however)
