Ok this may be a bit far fetched but has anyone tried the Makita XCU02Z? The rates chain speed is about 30% of of husky however better rated amp hours (2x 5ah) than the husky's 4.2 ah battery and on par with weight (10.1 lbs each equipped). Plus you can switch the batteries with Makita power tools for j-hook cabling jobs. I'm looking at this from a pruning/topping saw perspective as I'm not much a fan of top-handles for wood of any significance. Price is like 1/2 of the husky both with charger and batteries. Any thoughts?
