The powerstack are supposed to be higher discharge but lower capacity. Like if you have a compact 1/2” impact wrench or a drill where you want to do big holes and want power but only need to do a couple holes and don’t want a big 6.0+ pack hanging off of it, the Powerstack packs are good.

As for the little hackzalls, they’re nice, but you will still use two hands to brace it on certain things. They don’t have the balls of full size orbital saws if you’re chewing through a bunch of 4x4’s. I think DeWalt has an XR with a goofy configuration that’s pretty powerful and not fuckhueg.

Loppers get tough much over an inch depending on what kind of tree. Like I had these big thorny bushes all along the back at the last house and if you want to get a limb inside some other branches that aren’t coming off, it’s a cunt and a half to get loppers in there and open them wide for a big branch and crank down on it. Meanwhile I can get one arm in there much more easily and pull a trigger. Plus if you’re up on a ladder, it’s not fun to lean off the side with both arms to use the loppers.

It’s not 2000 anymore. You don’t have to charge a NiCd battery after 3 cust like the old sawzalls.
