BATTERY-POWERED CHAIN SAWS:Their growth in power makes them a viable, low-maintenance alternative to gas-driven saws.

摘要

The advent of high-capacity lithium batteries and brushless motors has produced something amazing: a battery-powered chain saw that truly rivals a 35- to 40-cubic-centimeter gas-powered engine saw. Take my word on it. Being a cordless-tool junkie (admittedly, I am a total tool junkie), I purchased one of the first versions of cordless chain saws on the market, which was made by Echo, several years ago. I figured it would come in handy cutting branches and limbs.Soon, however, I was using it to fell and part out whole trees.
