    McCulloch 3-10E , battery start

    I paid $60 for mine, but I think I got away cheap. It took them almost four weeks to find braided solder cable to connect the batteries, and the battery guy actually cleaned the entire saw for me while I was waiting for them to find the parts, and I suspect he put a significant amount of time...

    McCulloch 3-10E , battery start

    Well, it's been 8 years... but I finally had the battery pack rebuilt, and it works great. BatteriesPlus made a nice LiOn replacement pack, same number of cells and size, and fits entirely under the old cover. Currently the leads aren't wired into a plug, but I just went to the electronics...

    McCulloch 3-10E , battery start

    Okay, I see what you mean now. My battery cells are wrapped in pairs, so you can't see that there's two per section. I pulled the battery assembly out entirely tonight, so I may split open the wrapping on one pair and check a little more what they're about. My idea of 8-AA batteries did...

    McCulloch 3-10E , battery start

    Mine must be a replacement battery pack, because mine's only 5 cells, about the length of a D cell, but about half the diameter. I'm going to try AAs, because they're cheap, and LiOn AAs have plenty of power (in theory to start the saw)

    McCulloch 3-10E , battery start

    HimWill: I do not have the battery charger that came with it. However: 1: The electric start still works. I just hooked up my 24V cordless drill battery, and it fired right up in my basement (which surprised me.) 2: The battery pack is still in there, and it was holding about .3v charge...

    McCulloch 3-10E , battery start

    Another 3-10E owner Howdy folks. I stumbled across this site looking for information on getting my 3-10E running again, and working on the battery pack. I inherited my McCulloch 3-10E from my grandfather, who got it new, and who died in 1995. I recently had to give it a thorough cleaning...
