OT Advice on battery-powered sawzalls?

I'm thinking I need to get one since I'm using a little hand-held saber saw a lot lately. I'm mostly looking at the Milwaukee and DeWalt units. Would rather not spend more than $200. I have a real Milwaukee sawzall for most work and lots of chain saws, so I just need something I can use up on top of a ladder or in a crawl space to cut out the occasional piece of wood. Anybody have a particular model they like in terms of sturdiness and battery life. It doesn't need to be terribly powerful because I can grab a plug-in tool if I need power.
