All new track compatible R185CCSX Cordless saw and ST2800 tracks from Evolution Power tools.

[@duke_hammersmith_iii]

I just needed to check I wasn’t going insane…the overhanging white part needs to be cut on first use, after which it will align with the blade exactly…as you show here. I just didn’t want to cut mine until I was sure! Thanks.

Good review Dean definitely worth considering

[@deandohertygreaser]

It really is!

[@Steve765]

Nice one Dean, when you recommend a tool I take note. You've never let me down.

[@robertdascoli949]

I wish batteries were all compatible with each other so you can just get the tools you want without being locked to a platform.

[@survivalboy9597]

Have you heared about CAS from Metabo? Fein and Bosch are doing something simular 🤔

[@kevinchamberlain7928]

Meliff? Not high end but good for occasional jobs.

[@timtimtim5294]

I just get battery adapters. Use any brand tool with any battery with the right adapter even have ones that modify voltage to use 18v batteries on 12v tools

[@kevinchamberlain7928]

@@timtimtim5294 Battery adaptor break the communication between genuine battery and genuine tool. Yes they work and I use them but they are far from ideal.

@@kevinchamberlain7928 they actually make high quality adapters in the US that allow proper battery communication.

Just ordered the set when for the corded version. Thanks for your recommendation 👍

Bought a few Evolution tools this year, very impressed for the price

[@cidercreekranch]

Look nice. Note that third-party track squares are available for most of the big name track saw tracks.

[@zaxmaxlax]

Those batteries are also skil compatible

Please show us the insides of an XGT tool if you ever get the chance! 🤞

[@michaelfairchild]

He yet to have it even brought to be serviced. Then again, its expensive equipment (I know, cause I own few XGT) and for most 18V LXT is enough. Yet I agree, XGT tool would be interesting for him to strip down. I wonder where did they hide that special chip. But I dont think Dean owns either a XGT charger or batteries yet. Though a charger and an adapter would be able to charge 40V, 18V and 14.4V batteries with one.

[@edwardlogan267]

@@michaelfairchild is bearings good compared to 18v? Is clutch and gears better in drills or are they cheaping out

[@edwardlogan267]

Basically is it worth the extra cost. I have some XGT and they seem good but this guys opinion is worth alot more to to me 🤣

[@michaelfairchild]

I yet to dismantle it, so cant say, before I got the HP001 I was using mid-tier BL Makita drill, so it was like jumping from Ford Fiesta to Aventador, plus the electronic clutch require to getting used to, but it got power and its Makita kind of power and not Milwaukee type. What I can say about HP001 is that the brake need a second to stop the chuck. I also had for testing HP002 which was HP001 without hammer function and double less power. At the end, if youre running everything on LXT, but youre okay without more power or longer runtime for now, then there is no need to update. For example I have LXT Impact DTD172 and XGT version is only 20Nm more powerful. Biggest reason for XGT is that they are making tabless pouches for batteries, which I doubt they will do for LXT. BL4040F version has some sick power output compared to normal BL4040. Also batteries are also somewhat a drawback as unlike LXT batteries you cannot use BL4080 or BL4050 battery with some of the tools.

[@Richie_D1982]

I really enjoy watching all your video's Dean. I have the R185 CCSL from Evolution and it is my most used saw. It is powerful, easy to handle and the quality of cut is very good. I'm thinking about the mitre saw as my Metabo KGS315 Plus is a real pain for not staying square plus i find it pulls a little when it gets to full speed. Looking forward to more great content soon. 👍👍

[@patrickcowan8701]

Wanted a rrack saw for years but can't bring myself to spend $600+ for a underpowered circular saw. Clamped straight edge and a Makita work for me.

[@michaelfairchild]

Buy a t-track and an adapter for it. It will turn your circular saw into a track saw.

[@dodgyjpt]

as always great content looking forward to next drop

[@Marty-lv426]

They take same battery as the skil and erbauer.if you buy them under the skil name the batteries are cheaper

[@connahjones8178]

I would look at the stealth mounts products, they have a square for the makita tracks, i have the magnetic bit holder for my impact, a spare pz2, a 50mm pz2, pz1 and pz3 bits make life easier to have them at hand

[@Cheers_Warren]

Do you ever get pneumatic tools needing fixing? I know everyone is battery now but air tools are great in factories. Cheers Warren usa

[@leonardpaciora5039]

Thanks again Dean!!

[@markandbow5774]

This is something I am looking for so your timing was great. Did the saw have any kick back protection? A riving blade to keep the wood apart ? Would thick wood affect it i.e. stall the motor ? Can you add more tracks to the original 2 in your video ?

[@davidgranger3628]

Stop getting me in fixing mode ,just greased (and boy the old stuff was hard) my B&D SR 910 RT and found a spring over ,no clue where it goes but put it in what i think is the logical place but its rare or rubbish because theres little out there about it and the available schematics unhlelpful ,any info .works better than it has for 20 years .surprisingly the brushes and bearings were fine .keep up the good work .

[@theshemullet]

Is evolution connected to erbauer. Someone told me their batteries were the same/compatible with each other

Just looked up the rails...£85 from Screwfix or less from Fleabay.

They're the old ones. Screwfix doesn't have the next Gen version which are massively improved

[@kevinchamberlain7928]

I bought an orange 110v Evolution chopsaw when they first came out - very good/accurate. I replaced it with another which was shite and could not cut mitres accurately (I'm a carpenter & joiner). It went straight back to screwfix and I bought a Makita 3 x the price which was an extremely wise decision. I'll never, ever buy evolution for serious woodwork again.

[@garethmcmahon9769]

Must look at this brand Dean. Hear nothing but good stuff. Getting sick of the price gouging by Festool.

[@plunder1956]

For a cordless circular saw that is quite a cunky blade. I use a Bosch mains Plunge Track-Saw system. I love your Metal Saw Horses. What make are they Please?

[@Matt-ns2ty]

Tough build sawhorses I think it's the 800 series or something like that if I'm not mistaken

[@markpullen61]

I have an Evolution Rage3s mitre saw I bought it second-hand wasn't until I got home I noticed the back fence was broken and been repaired I've tried to get one from evolution but they don't make them any more so I've used CT1 super glue to fix it until i can fathom out how to make a replacement. Changed the blade to an Evolution multi material and it works a treat. Only problem is the button you press in to stop the blade moving when you change it is jammed. Is there a way I can release it, Dean, without having to strip it down? I've tried WD40, but it's still not budging.

[@Luke-yx5ve]

Festool and bench dogs have had rail squares for years and quite a few other brands

[@Cheers_Warren]

With that type of hinge for angle cut Might limit the depth of cut at angle ( over other saws) Good looking brand not in usa. Cheers Warren

Not a plunge saw if it doesn't plunge.... more like a circular saw with a track shoe.

[@jonashermansson2519]

Not very impressive If you use it as a track saw indoor it will not be very good in handling dust. Tilt seems very flimsy. And much plastic pets like guard. If you use it as track saw adjustable speed is important. Don’t see it replace a real track saw.
