How does this compare with the 12V Hackzall 2420-20? What is more significant, the small size or extra power?

I tried the 12V model and it simply is not up to the task for most jobs. Get the one with more power.

.The 12 volt is a much weaker powered tool. If you plan on cutting metal products u wouldn't suggest the 12 volt saw. The 18 volt has a significant more amount of power. The 18 volt cuts metal compareable to an electric plug in sawzall.

The smaller 12 volt is better used as a hack saw the larger 18 volt is better for cutting lumber not enough power with 12 volt to use on 2x4 s and other wood continuosly

Don't know. I got the 40 volt one and it does OK. There are cheaper but they seem less reliable. There are better but cost more. This seemed like the best bang for the buck. I got the chain saw also. It is small and not much power but it uses the same battery and I get fed up with my FIVE gas chain saws not cranking! So I cut down the limbs and then saw them into managable lengths. If I need to fell a 12" tree I'll just have to get my gas saw to crank. I'm happy with the setup so far.

They really do the same thing. The 1200 charges quicker and has usb port for iPhone, etc and its heavier. I have the 150 and it is smaller and does the job. You are paying almost 100.00 more just for a usb port. They do the same thing and for the price the 150 is great. I use it for my optima batteries when Im not using my vehicle for a long period of time.

I can't speak to the relative power of this model, but it should be at least as good as the CMM1000. A do-it-yourselfer can replace the 2 12v batteries in the CMM1000. You can clean up the motor contacts and remove clippings build up while you have it open.

I have the 18v and it works great; lots of torque. I got the 20v for a friend who helped me with a remodeling project. I've used them both, side by side, and I'd go with the 20v just because it's a newer series. As far as performance, they seemed identical to me. We were driving 6 inch screws in creosoted lumber, so they were working plenty hard.

I don't have the 20Volt model you mention, but just based on battery size, I'm guessing the B&D; battery will have more power and last longer. Again, these battery powered units are great as a sweeper, but not really for heavy duty yard leaf blowing. I alternate my battery with the B&D; weed eater too, and so far it works out great. Have had them about a year.

more wattage... I am not sure of much else. This is m second one and the one I purchased which is the cheaper model does a great job. I am not sure what your needs are!

by all means get the larger one. It will charge your laptop faster. It will also have less likelihood of being a subpar device.the only difference between getting the bigger and smaller ones would be that's a smaller one is somewhat lighter but really not enough to make a difference especially when you consider performance.I work on machines as my profession. I almost never see a burnt out 90 watt power supply . . . most of the burnt out power supplies that I see are 65 watt power supplies.Good luck!

fully charged I dont know, I have a half acre and it does it all with power to spare and cuts through the toughest weeds. If you give the battery a full charge you most likely wont need to buy another battery. I have been doing great with one and thats why a bought the 32 volt, it also seems to have more enitial power for the tough weeds with such a small motor. Its also so light I am not done in at the end of trimming.

48-11-2402 is the old version and the 48-11-2440 is the new and improved version and has a lot more power and a lot more run time works great for the hacksall and drill and impact when doing a lot of work for tight spaces and or working over ur head it's nice to have a 48-11-2420 which is the smaller battery that simply is a part of the Handle only has the same power as the 48-11-2440 just slightly less run time I hope this helps

There is a larger battery available, it's twice as big and lasts twice as long, I got one and it's good. But the main reason I like this blower is the light weight, so I ended up getting another small battery and change them out if needed. I prefer to use the big battery mostly with the bigger tools like the string trimmer and chain saw where I feel it helps the balance and feel of the tool.

No power increase, but Voltage reduction, 13.8v to 7.8v. I run mine at 12.5v, it will last much longer. DaVeeD

For those needing this also... 2.4 amps on a 12 volt battery is about 30 watts which is pretty efficient for this size of unit. Hope that helps.

i have not found or heard info of any difference in power. choosing either would depend on the actual battery mod. the cap fitting/pressure of spring on some are tighter and some are loose when fitted with flat top or button.

I believe the 15000 Mah would be that much more powerful (able to hold a larger charge). If you watch the videos, this seems to be more than adequate power for boosting a car battery. If you're using it as a personal charging device only, I would go for more power. I will be using it for my van, quad (when out in the back woods as a back up tool), and as a charger while in the woods. Quad can charge it up while riding. Keep in mind this is a very portable unit. It also comes with lots of plug in attachments. Hope this helps!

I don't know which has more power ....... I am very satisfied with the black & decker, very satisfied ...... I especially like the ball headed attachment ...... use it just about every other day because a cat lives in my house ...... it's dandy.

It is better to have a little extra power, than to max out a smaller unit. Also depends on how long the device is running... if it is on all the time a a slightly higher unit will work better in the long run.
