Battery powered chainsaw

[rumwrks]

So just to make myself more clear, I was only suggesting a plug in device (ac or dc) to work as a start aid for gas powered saws for some of our senior/seasoned citizens with shoulder issues.

Fair, although I thought it worth noting that the little oregon was less of a POS than I initially expected it to be hah. For joe small lot homeowner.. it's not really the worst of solutions.

For serious work of any duration I haven't found the electrics to be worth much either.

I got the oregon for a specific close to shop use case and it was really quite nice for that. Tthe Dewalt because I wanted to see how well it actually worked... and thought it might be ok for a quick carry around saw for some limited use.

No argument you can do a whole lot with a 50cc or even a 30cc saw as long as you treat them like what they are. For some of the bigger stuff where I'm at a slightly bigger saw can be real nice. Oregon white oak is takes a bit of HP to get through with any speed (I've used the little 30cc on smaller stuff up to maybe 18" green, but once it's dry.. I don't want to be there all day lol).

I’ll be back in a battery saw again. It’s too convenient not to.

YOU know who it is

I’d need a hint, we have too many! I’ve had the bizarre coincidence of having probably a dozen A-list celebs as neighbors, as buying a second home in central Bucks County became some big Hollywood fad in the 1980’s. There’s also some locally-grown talent, but less common.

I don’t know if this will do it for you, but here’s a portrait he did.
It’s a family of famous artists.

Grew up in a family of artists, pretty easy to figure out this one.

How come I grew up in a family of artists and I have no artistic talent ?

Did see one of my grandfathers paintings for sale in my town.
His art certainly did not fetch the big bucks like the above artist though.

I am waiting for the next round of battery tech to come out.
Lithium is now growing in smaller increments than it was only a few years ago.

I can't imagine using a saw to buck up a tree if it only lasts 6-10 min a battery.
My M18 pole saw is the only battery one I use, very easy to trim up branches and buck up smaller trees (and fell all those 20' dead ash under the big Ash trees).
I need to be able to run a saw for 2-3hours at a time for the larger trees and for firewood.

The future is here & now. Safe & quiet. It works up to 1,000 ft. away. The price will come down...

I think you just made a lot of tree climbers & arborists very nervous.
