However, light-duty projects don’t require as much power, so a 3-amp motor will be enough. Since oscillating tools are relatively new compared to circular saws and power drills, you may not be aware of everything they can do. This section will point out some of the key considerations that you should keep in mind when shopping for the best oscillating tool. This multi-tool is part of Dewalt’s 20 Volt max system and runs off the same batteries. Make your next DIY project a breeze with an oscillating tool to tackle those tough areas. The Dewalt cordless oscillating multi-tool kit is available at The Home Depot here.
Even though I had to purchase a blade for cutting concrete siding, it worked flawlessly. My only complaint, is that the quick release spring is nice, but when you have arthurites in the wrist, it makes it difficult to compress, hold and swap out the blades. But then so does using the allen wrench required with the MM tool. It’s noisy but it cuts well and has plenty of power for most things you use a multi tool for. Haven’t used any of my Feins or Makita cordless since I got the Dewalt. With the right attachment, you can use your oscillating tool to cut, file, trim, and shape tile, even cutting gentle curves or other shapes that go beyond straight lines.
I loved the concept, but I did have issues with the tool itself. Blade changes were a pain and I had to periodically re-tighten them the with an allen wrench. I decided to replace it because it got really hot under extended use,feel the heat through work gloves hot. Still, I got a decent life span from dewalt Hand tools the tool, considering the price. Whether you’re cutting through some metal in a tight space, or crafting a custom wood project, this is THE tool.

I haven’t seen a quiet oscillating tool, but in my experience Fein has fewer vibrations. Possible dumb question as I have batteries everywhere, and suspect most of us have more than one, but have you tried different batteries? It did the exact same thing with various tools (light came on briefly but didn’t power the tool otherwise), due to it being unable to charge properly. Of course, it was slower than a reciprocating saw would have done, chewing full-speed. I probably wouldn’t reach for this tool in an open stud-wall situation with both tools on hand, but that’s not what it’s made for. I could fit the thing inside the wall cavity, with enough room for my fingers to grip it.
