Husqvarna battery saw is convenient. However, the performance is terrible in comparison to gas powered models.

A dewalty 60v would sh*t all over that. I've had some big days on the dewalt, multiple cords cut. As long as you are committed to having a few batteries & perhaps a charger on deck, it's basically retired my sthil. Wouldn't go back. Less noise, vibration = less fatigue. Like any saw, needs a sharp chain and good bar oil, but absolutely rips.
You know a product is bad when our boy here has so little to say about it. Woof.
I went with a, comparatively, cheap electric chainsaw and have been very happy with it. Uses the same batteries as all my garden equipment. However 90% of what I use it for would be considered light use. So perfect for homegamer user use.
I've got a brushless Earthquake angle grinder converted into a chainsaw that rips way better than that thing.
Just buy one of those chinese clone saws and then throw it in the landfill when it shits the bed. Half the cost of one of the battery saws.
The Milwaukee saw is a skookum choocher though
i bought an ego chainsaw and it worked as good as a gas saw at a fraction of the weight and noise. the battery lasted me 2 hours of cutting
Our guys used DeWalt battery chainsaws for cutting timbers underground in order to build chutes and manways. They seemed to like them well enough.
I mean using a battery Chainsaw is like Towing across the county with an EV, not so smart 😀
You can’t even charge them between 4 and 9 pm in California
Trading dollhairs for noise and stink.
Nice and quiet for when you need to dismember a corpse.
Try the ego 56v with a 7.5amp battery, I've cut about 10 cord with mine and it'll do about 1.5hr of hard work, runs an 18" oregon bar. No good for milling but for bucking stuff up and delimbing it's been awesome not having to use ear hole pluggers.
All these other saws don't have the same kind of power. We're talking a 400+Whr battery and half this other junk is running at 20 volts.
111% spot on… those mid range e-saws are expensive e-waste if you're looking to do anything other than trim your xmas tree.
frig the chainsaw what's the axe ?
