So you're looking at a cordless circular saw that does a bit more than just rip cuts, and honestly, that sliding compound mitre function is what sets it apart—it's not just for straight cuts, you can tilt the blade up to 45 degrees for bevels without having to swap tools, which is pretty handy on a job site when you're framing or doing trim work.
Most buyers grab this for wood and stone, but I'll tell you right now, it's better suited for wood and soft stone like limestone or brick, not dense granite slabs; the 5-inch blade just doesn't have the torque for that kind of heavy work, and the no-load speed tops out at 1150 RPM, so you're not going to rip through thick concrete pavers all day.
It weighs about 18kg with the battery (which is not included, by way—check your existing 21V platform), and the package dimnesions are 78 by 34 by 30 centimeters, so it's a bit bulky in the box but manageable once the blade guard and slide mechanism are assembled, and the depth at 90 degrees is 35.3mm, which is fine for most dimensional lumber but you'll lose about 10mm when you bevel to 45 degrees.
We've been selling these for a few years now, and what I like is the brushless motor gives you roughly 30% more runtime per charge compared to the brushed version, and the CE and ROHS certifications are standdard, but we do send a COA with every unit (usually within 2-4 weeks lead time), and the warranty is 12 months from invoice date, though most issues we see are from people using the wrong blade for the material.
One thing buyers don't always ask but should know is that the blade diameter is 125mm, so replacement blades are easy to find at any hardware store, and the battery terminals are compatiible with most generic 21V packs (check the pin layout first), but we recommend sticking with the same brand for consistent power delivrey—otherwise you'll get inconsistent RPM under load, and that's when the brushless controller can glitch.
Actually, if you're ordering for a carpentry crew, the 5-inch size means it's lighter than a 7-inch saw, so you can use it for overhead cuts or tight spaces, but the sliding mechanism adds some weight up front, so it's not ideal for one-handed operation unless you've got strong wrists, and anyway, we usually stock about 50 units or so, but confirm lead time if you need more than that at once.
No, the 21V lithium-ion battery is not included. You'll need to purchase it separately or use one from your existing compatible kit.
The max cutting depth at 45° is 25mm, and at 90° it's 35.3mm. That's for the 5-inch blade.
Yes, the ECS-21BL is CE and ROHS certified, so it meets EU safety and environmental standards.
Lead time is typically 15-25 working days for bulk orders, depending on stock levels. Contact us for exact timing.
The package dimensions are 78×34×30 cm, and the tool itself weighs 18kg, so plan for a sturdy shipping box.
