[QUOTE="Mad Professor, post: 3447993, member: 5316"] I may not be much help if you are remotely considering a battery powered chainsaw. I three Stihls. HT101 pole saw 260 Pro with 16 and 20” bars. MS193T. 14” Top handle climbing saw. Stihl has 3 basic lines. A homeowners occasion use. A more frequent use (I think they call it farm use) and a professional series. All of mine are professional use models but see but I fall into an occasional to frequent user category. The saws have been great. I take care of them. The HT is 13 years old, the 260 Pro is 16-18 years old, and I bought the 193T early last year. On the other hand, my dad always buys the cheaper occasional use Stihls and doesn’t get much life out of them. You pretty much get what you pay for, even in the Stihl line. All of mine are getting ready to get a serious workout over the next couple of weeks. I’ve already put a hour or so on the 193T clearing branches off my drive way the last 48 hours. [/QUOTE]
