Thank you for the vid. My father has an old coldless Ryobi that can't cut 2x4, so I was hesitant on getting another cordless saw. This looks like the perfect tool for the occasional one off cuts.

For total fairness you should have used identical brand new blades, you can see the chip size and amount of saw dust produced by the blade of the brushless makita is totally different

[guydoeseverything]

Cant really judge because no real comparison which blades are used. A saw's rip cutting abilities are mostly made up by tooth count and sharpening geometry. Looks like the 680 had a Z12 on, but cant see what the 611 has. Probably Z24.

The one complaint I have about the brushless saw is the little lever for adjusting the base plates depth. Firstly once base plate was at maxx depth the lever would be lower and catch on material and now the circlip has popped off!

Thank you for not putting 5 mins of waffle at the start

J'ai acheté la DHS680 du coup car c'est impresionnant on voir que sur la DSS611 le raccord daspiration c'est blocker

[Giggler.]

Wow, wel I know which one I’m buying! Thanks

[arimirarim]

I'm not sure how can we compare 2 saws with different blades!. It doesn't make any sense to me. Next time I would suggest to use the same blade on both saws. Otherwise good short to the point video.

Great video

Thank you so much

Blessings

A bit easy to push less on a saw while making a rip cut so it seems " slower " 🙄 these tests are bs

[tim]

The controller will go on the 680 and Makita have made the part too expensive

[SuperCraig]

Had 2 of dhs680 both of them only lasted 8 months motors burn out looks like I’ll be getting a third 😪

[floreamihai.]

la asta nici nu iti scriu in engleza.. urat.. mi-ai umilit circularul 😭😭

[SGIBAI]

Как говорят в России:
Не сравнивай хер с пальцем

[electrolatif]

Cant compare 3700rpm with 5000rpm
😂😂😂first one slow because the speed just 3700rpm but the second 5000rpm😂😂😂

[michaelstride]

the brushless tool motors die faster than the brushed. BUT yes the brushless has more power.
Brushless will last you 1 years
Brushed will last you 7 years
