25cc chinese chainsaw, clone of what?

[sleepyweasel]

Anyone know what these little 25cc saws are cloned after? I just got an echo cs-2511t and its definately not an echo 2511 clone. So what is it?

I got one and it's a good running little saw.

I went ahead and bought one $89 why not

And it looks like a redmax g2500

Redmax & Zenaoh = same thing.
Redmax brand is mostly used in USA. Now merged with Jonsered.

All Joncutters are Zenoah/Redmax copies, including the 2500.

... one problem with these clones is their weight. The real Zenoah is super light ...

Never saw a Zenoah. Of course I don't go looking for a top handle saw anyway, they find me. Mostly Poulan 2000's.

I have been using on one of those little saws for awhile, no issues so far. Nice tiny saw, decent build, ran good out of the box, not a powerhouse but gets the job done. Parts are available, fairly inexpensive.

Since not many folks are familiar with the RedMax saw, it reminds me of a good running Echo 280, or any of the lower price previous generation Echo top handles. I am not familiar with the new Echo top handles.

There's an unboxing video out there, in which the presenter seems genuinely perplexed as to why the weight of the original G4500 stated on the Zenoah website, is lower than that of the Joncutter G4500 on the Huztl site.
