Electric chainsaw

Echo gas or silky hand saw

I really like my ego. It came with a 16 bar but you can get an 18 bar. Cuts as good or better than my gas saws, but is quieter and no exhaust to choke on. I run only cooking oil as bar oil and have used it to quarter frozen deer.

I’ve had luck with the ego one

My 12” Dewalt gets the job done great, but don’t get it unless you’re already deep into the dewalt ecosystem. It leaks bar oil pretty bad. This seems to be a common, maybe universal, issue with this model. But still worth it to me with a bunch of dewalt batteries around already.

The dewalt is the only one I have been around, we were inspecting a transmission line in the blue mountains and we had a little gas stihl, and the lineman had the dewalt, and it was actually pretty impressive

We had a surplus of dewalt 20 and 60w batteries because everything we used was dewalt. I have been considering getting an electric saw for my pickup, would be nice to not need gas in my pickup all winter, because after the first big blow here on the coast, I keep my little stihl in my pickup all winter

Little dewalt leaks or drains is more accurate but you can fix it with some gasket sealer. Bit of a chore but I think the saw cost me 70 bucks and I have plenty of batteries
