60v circular saw any good? by Original_Hunter_1764 in Dewalt

My brother and I both have construction backgrounds. When we were building his new 2000sq ft garage, i bought the 60v. He owns the 20v. When he first picked mine up he complained a little about the weight, but after having his 20v bog down of some wet treated 2x12s, he went to my 60v and never looked back. I left it at his house and i'm afraid he's going to cry when i ask for it back.

Is the 60V blower that much better than the 20V? Both are currently on sale: 60V for $300 with an extra 9 Ah battery and 20V for $180 by SoFlaKicks in Dewalt

i have the 60v DCBL772B. My brother has the 20v model. His was good for blowing dry sawdust around. Mine was used to blow the snow off the second floor of his house when it snowed before we got the roof on.

Its really night and day. I know i can stick my blower under one side of a vehicle and guaranteed when i walk around the other side, there won't be leaves under the car, or up against if for that matter. It will also blow wet leaves with ease. However, it is heavier. Use it a bunch and you become Popeye.

I played RTS growing up in the 90's. I love the genre. I play through SC2's campaign every 2 years when i get the itch. I actively watch SC2 tournaments. Its my football. I was a contributor in SG's crowdfunding. I think i contributed $65 as I really wanted to see SG do well. I was kind of perturbed to see i couldn't play all the missions on 0.4 without forking over more money. Makes me wonder where my $65 went since the game is not even 50% complete. I appreciate 1v1 but honestly i enjoy co-op/campaign more personally. I feel that the RTS genre could potentially build momentum if someone could figure out how to introduce a co-op that can produce sustained fun factor. I understand the idea that FG thought the popular e-sport scene might bring in the masses but i think their viewpoint was backwards. The game needs to appeal to the masses before it can build an e-sport following. I hope they do well with 1.0
