Many people ask what the difference is between a cordless circular saw and one that has a cord on it, such as a corded circular saw. Beyond the obvious there is not a whole lot of difference between the two. There is one very noticeable difference that you will be able to notice when using a cordless circular saw. This difference is simply a matter of reduced power. Nobody has been able to make a battery pack that is able to compete with the power that you get from a circular saw with a cord. 18 volts is a far cry from the standard 120 volts you receive from an outlet. There have been cordless tools on the job for quite a few years; everything from screwdrivers to drills. When you mention the words cordless circular saw many people will be quick to look at you like you have lost your mind; the two just don't mesh well due to the fact that a cordless tool lacks sufficient power and everyone knows that to be true.
Cordless Saw
There is a time and place for a cordless circular saw, this place is not designed to build an entire house with them, but they will work for small projects around the house. Let's be real until there is a way to place all of the 120 volts of a corded circular saw into the size of an 18 volt battery pack, a cordless circular saw will be at a distinct disadvantage in the way of power.
Cordless Saw
All of that being said there are advancements that have been made on a cordless circular saw that many of the corded versions are not up to speed with. One of these is the side blower; this is designed in order to keep the cutting line clear of any debris that tends to cover up the cutting line when you are in the process of cutting a straight line. In addition there is the fact that the adjustments can be made on the fly as you are in the middle of a project. There is no longer a time that you have to take a lot of time away from the project that you are working on.
Using a cordless circular saw is sometimes a little tricky as there is a lot of difference in the way that the saw performs on a regular basis. No matter the brand that you are partial (i.e. the Bosch Circular Saw ) to there is sure to be a saw that is right for you and your needs. Many of the brands out there offer a lot in the way of features that allow a person ease of use. A cordless circular saw is one that will make a difference in the way that you look at a project again.
While a cordless circular saw is not right for every situation that is out there, they make the perfect tool for smaller projects. These projects are the ones that you don't want to risk cutting your cord on a small project. This is when you grab your battery pack and go to town on the project. If you are not in a massive hurry to get that doghouse built then this is the saw for you to use. A cordless circular saw has it's place on the job site, and with a little bit of respect you will be able to use it for many of the jobs that you need to do.

Bare-Tool Milwaukee 6320-20 18-Volt Ni-Cad 6-1/2-Inch Cordless Metal Cutting Circular Saw (Tool Only, No Battery) Specifications
Metal’s no challenge for this little Milwaukee brute, slicing quickly through everything we put it to: unhardened ferrous metal, non-ferrous metal, plastics and cement board. Power is plentiful, with an 18-volt battery juicing the blade’s 3,200 rpm. We were surprised at how quickly the electric brake halts the blade, too: In our very unscientific test, it was about a second and a half, great for repetitive cuts and even more important for safety. The blade guard is clear, and you do get a great sightline because of it, but it is plastic, and we didn’t want to take our chances slamming it around the warehouse to see what kind of impact it would withstand. A little care is a small price for a much-improved view, we think. It’s lighter than we expected by the rugged look of it, so it handles beautifully, and the ergonomic D-handle grip feels great. If you’re in plumbing, construction, maintenance or even fire and rescue, you ought to have this saw.
