I have a Sears 5-1/2" trim saw that runs (?) on a 14.4 VDC battery, model #973.113080. Or should I say it should run on that, but even with a fully charged battery it won't cut a 6" piece of soft pine! It came as a set with a drill; such a bummer I gave the drill to a friends kid and tossed the saw under the work bench. My thought; can I get a DC transformer and wire the thing to run off of stepped down 120? Either a transformer or something like a Variac (sp)? Hate to throw it in the trash but its a piece of junk on batteries. What do you guys think, yes or no way? Thanks.
