so i treated myself to a cordless hikoki circular saw (C18DBAL), as i already have a couple of batteries and a fast charger i decided to go the body only route,
i bought the body for a good price as it was badged as a Hitatchi and not the new Hikoki brand, which didn't bother me.
any way its just arrived, and to my surprise it has a 5.0ah battery attached and it's got the new branding on it. RESULT
HOWEVER,
there is a small bit of damage to the casing where the battery locates (as per below pic) the battery still clicks in ok and feels secure enough.
do i call them up and get a replacement which would likely mean i'll have to send the battery back, or do i just take it as it is and glue the broken bit of casing back down?
