I know GuiltyofTreeson on YouTube tried one, not sure if he did a long term testI think it’s finally time to retire my trusty stihl 009 and eyeing battery powered this go round since I don’t cut near as much wood as I used to snd sick of fighting old gas issues.
Anyone run one of the m18 top handle 14” saws? I’ve got all Milwaukee tools so the battery commonality makes the most sense. I also prefer a top handle saw like my 009 in a 14-16” bar. I’ve watched a pile of YouTube videos but those don’t give you a perspective on running one for more than a few cuts as well as 90% of YouTubers have no business touching a saw . How do these new battery saws compare to a comparable gas?
Also side note anyone know of any top notch stihl mechanics / restoration places, preferably in Montana? The 009 has a lot of sentimental value as well as being an awesome little saw.
