I read that this saw is equal to a 42 cc gas saw. I’ve run one of those, this saw is better. This saw is lighter, quieter, less vibration, and easier to control. I ran this saw for 4 1/2 hrs., took a break and cut down another tree before I felt the battery needed a recharge. I really do like this saw. It’s fast and it goes to work so much quicker than a gas model, and doesn’t stink like an oil and gas saw. Did I mention how much I like this saw?
Works very well. Went through my 6 inch pine logs like butter. The only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is that it sometimes won't start right up. Brake and buttons and battery must be perfect to run.
Anyone whos used a gas saw should have no issues with this one. Compares in weight and just a little longer to allow for the battery. Comfortable and easy to manipulate in a wooded area. Worked well in clearing fallen trees from a forest road. The absence of needing to pull start at each tree was refreshing. Handled both de-limbing and sectioning through both locust and cedar with ease. Battery life wasn't an issue as I was able to make approximately eighty cuts with power left over. Convenience alone will probably see me using this before my gas saw in the future.
