Anybody tried one of these yet?

Just browsing the harbor freight monthly and first time seeing these.. Not that id ever have a use for one but more and more brushless/lithium saws are starting to pop up...eager to see what we have in 10 years.

I had an electric saw for a while, but the vibration and feel in the cut is horrible!

I think all this battery powered equipment is still evolving.

The future? Who knows maybe carpet grass that grows to a certain height, no mowing.

I have a new older unused black n Decker electric chain saw that came with a squirt bottle for bar oil. It’s very small maybe a hedge trimmer. It’s 20 v like all my b&d stuff is.

Similar but older, https://www.amazon.com/BLACK-DECKER-LCS1020-Lithium-Chainsaw/dp/B00OC9WSDC

I got it for the misses but she won’t use it.

I bought my wife a Dewalt elec saw. She loves it.

Well I have the MS160 battery top handle saw. Can't compare it to the super light petrol saws as I don't own one, but it works excellently. Good torque, no vibration, no noise, no heat, no pull start. Slow in the cut. Very precise cuts.

Electric "saw". We'll go with that, sure.

We keep one of these on the chip truck. It’s fantastic. Plenty of power. We upgraded to the larger batteries (300 I think) and they last a long time. It’s supposed to last an hour or so of continuous cutting, we switch the battery out once a week or so.
I think it was $900 with the two upgraded batteries. It sure is nice not to be yanking on a pull cord while aloft though. I like I said the power is right there. Goes through 8” stuff like butter.
I’m glad we got this unit over the gas model.

Until batteries improve their power output to weight ratio gas will always be around.
Too bad we didn’t have those mini nuke batteries from escape from LA
