This is a beast. Does everything I want in a large garden with many trees. No worrying if it’s going to start, no exhaust fumes, no messing with 2-stroke oil. Battery life might be a problem for professional users, lasts about an hour of heavy use, by which time I need a break anyway.

Has performed above expectation, excellent cutter, using only light pressure so as not to damage chainsaw and preserve long life.

This thing is fantastic, ive been regularly cutting 18/20 inch logs and it just eats through the wood. The batteries last about 20/30 mins of cutting, enough to fill a small trailer. I have 3 sets of batteries and thats enough to get a full haul.

Very pleased. The 2 5ah batteries heat up quite a lot. Might need to purchase some 6ah batteries. Happy with the tool though. Durk Walsma
