Hi, I am interested to buy this saw. I will be installing saw in garage&I reside in Canada. Is 115v same as 220v? Will it work in garage? Thank you.

The saw come prewired at 115v. The motor voltage is rated at 115/230 volts.

It works fine on 115v. That is how the saw comes wired. You probably could have an electrician convert it to 220v if that is what you wanted. It will work fine in a garage, that is where I have mine.

Assuming your referring to the battery charger for this saw, a 150 watt, 110v down converter should keep up with the demands under most conditions. Remember duty cycles of batteries change under temperature conditions. Your limited by temperature. Heating of the batteries might slow your cycle rate, buy additional batteries, or a bigger saw.

i am using a 60 amp breaker on the 220 v circuit. at 120 v the cutter will kick out a 20 amp breaker if turned up over half power. i haven't tried using it on a 30 amp/120v circuit. But have used it at full power on my 220 v circuit with no problems.......

Good Morning, Unfortunately, we do not receive the factory information from Hitachi when we receive our tools for reconditioning. All of our tools are 110V, we do not have any 220v. Thank you!

Soon you depress the handle, of course you need a good ground and about 1/16 of a inch of your cutting surface at 60-70 psi.it work good for me. 220 V is always better then 120 V.

It's 110v. I had to take mine back and get something else because the blade wouldn't stay in it (I bought a Porter Cable instead).

As far as I can tell from B&D;'s website, the 220 is variable speed, the 120 is not. See http://www.blackanddecker.com/allproducts/power-tools-drills.aspx#pg9999 There are five different 20V models in the LD series shown there (plus a 16V and a 12V). There's a compare feature (up to three items) but more info would still be helpful.

I live and work in a 110 V power system. My experience in Europe in a 220 volt system was that transforming 110v into 220v was possible but had some draw backs in performance. Contact Fein customer support to find if they make a 220v tool or have an approved transformer system for the tool. I love my Fein; when you need it, it is the only tool to use. I find new uses for it about every time I use it.

It's not the watts. It best to use the power converter, to convert 110 to 220 volts. Why, in US, the power run on 60Hz, in Asian the power is 50Hz.The ratio between 50Hz and 60Hz is about 83% slower. Speed and torque goes together. The saw may have a switch to switch-over to 220 volt.But the saw speed will be slower and not enough torque to do the job, then you have to feed the wood cutting slowly. It's best to use a converter.Try it two ways, one without the converter and other with a converter and see the difference in saw performance. In the end the motor is made for 60Hz.

My Makita jig saw is 120V. I do not know the voltage in Australia, but most power tools will work within 10% of the specified voltage.

The machine is made for 110v, so not sure about 220. I think you could google Technivorm, and there will be contact numbers for where you live and I would contact them directly about this.

Hi Patricio. I have never used 220VAC with this; I only use standard 120Volt outlet. Sorry; I wish I could be more helpful, but I will tell you that the tool is quite WONDERFUL for what it's supposed to do. Best! Mike

The tools used here in the USA are 120 volt tools.All tho, some manufactures have 220 volt tools for the overseas markets.I'm not sure if Hitachi offers this tool in 220v here in the states. You could get that info from them at Hitachi.Here is a number for them.1-800-706-7337.Hope this helps.

No, 115V is all that is noted. You could get a transformer if using it in a country with 220v.

Me too, I really need to know if it is 110v or 220vMy house has no power to 220volts, just 110vYou know where I could found this information? Thanks!

hello Brittanyi'm a licensed electrician and i use this little saw alot. i know the batteries are expensive but i would only use a battery of the same voltage and the same type battery with any cordless tool. it may harm or ruin the motor that runs the saw.

I haven't tried 220v but it is not a compound saw meaning, it does not slide so cannot cut a piece of plywood. I wish I had bought a compound saw instead...
