18v vs 20 v express

currently we use the 18v express from equalizer. We are constalntly having bateries and trigger wear out. I have looked at the 20v lith express. the trigger assembly and battery contacts look more reliable( lack of a better word).
Has any one been using the 20v lithium version of the express? if so, do the batteries and triggers last longer.
any input would be greatly appreciated.

Re: 18v vs 20 v express

We have a bone pile of equalizes that have been dismantled multiple times. We now use extractors (Milwaukee) and have never had one apart.

Xpress is a tad on the soft side !!!!

Re: 18v vs 20 v express

Corded is the way to go.

Re: 18v vs 20 v express

I agree corded is the way to go either that or the Big Dawg. The downside to the corded (the bigger one) its a stupid release thing you have to turn to release the blade and it wears out :( I like a flip a lever ...

Re: 18v vs 20 v express

Agreed, 120 volt is the way, I have a good inverter so I always have FULL power, I go through one about every 3 years, I recently got the Black Ops and wish I didn't waste my money. One thing I hate is you can control the speed with the trigger so why have the numbered wheel that can go out and or simply get turned to a lower speed while cutting when you want full power 24-7!!!

Re: 18v vs 20 v express

Have a couple express's that are no good anymore, most of the rear case's are broke. switched to the extractor 28v and a corded extractor never had an issue for except the occasional blade break. Corded is the way to go as long as you have a good inverter, Never a dead battery they are a work horse that's for sure..
