Stick to the kW numbers when in doubt.....
The NE346 is rated at 2.7kW/3.7hp,
and the 2153 at 2.6kw/3.54hp - at least in Sweden.....
Maccall is correct; the 2156 has been here for about 2 years now. Got one myself! Tilton seems to prefer to sell them with .325, which is what I left on mine, (21LP, 18"). It does seem really quick with the .325, and it balances much better with the 18" bar. But as far as selling it goes, most everyone wants it with a 20" 3/8. In most cases that preference is so they can use the same chain loop as on their 2171/372. The other item is that the 2156 is only available as a "C" model here in the US. (I ditched the "C" on mine before I fired it up).
I also ditched that auto-deco that it came with. I'm surprised that more hasn't been posted about that stupid thing. When that thing fails it will toast the saw. Husky quietly stopped putting them on the 357's, which now come with the old style deco. I assume that Jonsered made the change at the same time. (I haven't had 2156's in stock due to a deal that I got on 357's). Every saw that comes into the shop, I automatically switch over to the older style deco. You also have to put a cap and small wire clip over the port at the bottom of the cylinder. $20 worth of parts will save a $200 P&C.

Unfortunately it's not always that simple. Not only are there different ways to express hp measurement (DIN is typically expressed metrically, SAE is not), but there are different way to actually measure the power in the first place. So different standards can produce different kW numbers as well. .....

I doubt that there is any difference.
Would not you think Husky wants to make there saw look better.
KW still i more reliable than the different kinds of hp......
Other then the debateable .1 kwh and .1 weight measurements is there any difference between the husky 346 xp new and cs2153? Looking to order one of these but want to figure out if there is a difference in performance, serviceability, vibration etc... Any help?
:bang: 1st of the year, will have the cat. BOOOOOOOO!!!!!!
Retail not set yet, but expect $10 or $20 more than the orange one. Standard model and also available with heated handles.
So what does the $10-20 get you?
Do they have the same air filter?
Quick question:
Do we have to actually HAVE one in our hands before we start belittling the Stihlheads as to how much better it is than the 260?? :hmm3grin2orange: :hmm3grin2orange: :hmm3grin2orange:
...
Clearly it indicates that the saw has a very good quantity of fahrfegnugen. More so than any other saw in its class...
