/diy/ - Do It Yourself

>>1615409
I'm a landscaper so most electric tools will not work for me. However one thing that has caught my attention is a battery chainsaw. I am scared to death of chainsaws because there are so many ways things can get fucked up in a very short amount of time. I've watched videos and read reviews and most are positive. They are much lighter and surprisingly comparable to gas in terms of power ( I can't confirm that myself, I only held a display model). Also instant torque and easier to brake. The largest stuff I handle is 10-20 maples/pine trees and that's only occasionally, it's the bushes and brush and bending over and tripping on overgrowth is what I worry about. Having a light workhorse that's not gonna crap out in the middle of something sure sounds handy but idk.
