Overview
Measuring 16 x 7 x 4 inches with an 8 inch capacity rating, the DEWALT DCS382B runs on a 20V battery and a 223.6 watt motor. Its B suffix marks it as a bare tool, sold without battery or charger.
Specs list the material as high speed steel alongside that 8 inch capacity figure, numbers that likely describe the blade rather than the saw body, so check the listing photos if you need that confirmed. Buyers already on DEWALT's 20V MAX platform get the most out of this since battery and charger are sold separately.

Who it's for
DEWALT 20V MAX owners adding a compatible saw to batteries they already own get the most from this one. It is not a fit for anyone who needs a battery and charger in the box, since this is a bare tool listing.
Pros and cons

Performance notes
A 223.6 watt motor on the 20V platform gives real cutting power for a cordless tool, and 16 x 7 x 4 inches keeps it compact enough for one-handed cuts in tight spots.
