How we checked
The PORTER-CABLE manufacturer page (portercable.com/product/690lr) confirms this exact model — "690LR 1-3/4 HP Fixed-Based Router" — with an 11 Amp motor producing 1-3/4 Peak HP, a 27,500 rpm single-speed motor, a fixed base, and included collets accepting 1/4 in. and 1/2 in. shank bits; it lists no price or weight. The Newegg retailer spec sheet corroborates the same model (Model 690LR) verbatim: Amperage 11, Horsepower 1.75, No-Load Speed (RPM) 27500, Speed Settings 1, Base Type Fixed, Collet Capacity 1/4 in / 1/2 in, Power Source Electric - Corded, and Weight 8 lbs — but was out of stock with no price shown. Price is therefore honestly null since no fetchable page displayed a verbatim figure.
