I have two friends with electric saws and the new technology is pretty good - can't cut as big of wood as with a gas saw, but they are pretty impressive. One of the saws even has an interesting chain design where you can sharpen it on the saw while it is running. The running time on them just keeps getting better and better, too.I would of asked me the same question hah! I have an MS251 that I usually play with. However, I like to try new things and this m18 chainsaw has really impressed me. I like not having the standard issue 2 stroke stench when I go to bed camping and not having to keep another can of gas on the truck is pretty nice. The Milwaukee is compact, has the power to save my butt in the woods and it’s always ready to go.
The two cycle smell can be pretty intense for sure.
I have used them and they are amazing for what they are. And yes, I'm sorry, I made this thread take a wrong turn....Until you’ve tried one of the new battery powered saws you wouldn’t believe how well they work and how long a battery lasts! I know they won’t replace a gas saw for everything but they do a damn good job for what they are. This thread got off topic in a hurry! Lol
