Bought Stihl battery powered trimmer and chainsaw. Use the mess out of them. Got 2 extended batteries. They last longer than I do…….


here's the NUMBER ONE problem you're going to have.

these things are so fricking easy to use its easy to be lazy. i almost took a chunk out of my leg when i was propping up a large branch with the toe of my foot and going after it one-handed.

just because you only have to push a button to get the chainsaw moving doesn't exempt you from the same safety measures.

eta i would be in favor of a mandatory 30 minute safety class for anyone purchasing a chainsaw.

It's probably a good idea. I worked in a tool rental store like AAA towards the end of high school and 2 years into college and never had folks injured using 17" Stihl chain saws, but electric saws may present different risks. Also, you could the customer not to get it into the dirt and low and behold they would do it an knock the edge off the chain. A dull saw is not safe.
