WORX 14.5-Amp Electric Chain Saw
If you plug this into your solar PV Inverter, it's really green.. :D
http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f1...r/chainsaw.jpg Worx Yard Tools Canada - Electric Leaf Blowers, Cordless Leaf Vaccums I have an old McCulloch gas Chainsaw and it's blade is only about 14" long. And, besides being so old that it has no safety features, there are a lot of other things that I don't like about that very noisy 2-stroke.. This WORX has a lot more power and, as the wise men say, it starts every time! I already own a very small E-chainsaw-on-a-stick. Extension pruning saw? Anyways, when I took it off the FG stick, I found it to be as capable as the McCulloch.. Remington brand I think. It works great. But, it was a bit too small for my current needs. (As you get older, the trees start getting massive).. :eek: GreenWorks 20032 13 Amp 18" Corded Chain Saw - amazon.com |
I've never heard of Worx. I'd be interested in hearing how it holds up over time. How much have you used it so far?
|
I've used it a couple of times. Yesterday, I had to cut up some big limbs we removed with the rope saw.
Before that, I cut down a medium sized tree, and the saw is very powerful when compared with my old Gas saw. Of course it's bigger and heavier. :) The reviews were mostly excellent.. |
I have an electric chainsaw; a 16" Poulan and it works very well. And I have a Remington electric pole saw, with is a 10" chainsaw on a pole.
Is Worx the Lowes in-house brand? |

I like mine, and I think it cuts better than my small McCulloch gas chainsaw. Compared to my Remington mini-electric-chainsaw, (pruning type) it's a lot more powerful. :) My saw can only run on 120vac, so be careful when ordering.. (If you only have 220vac).

I don't know if Lowes is anywhere but in North America.. My first electric chainsaw was the one I got with my Remington electric pole saw kit.. I really like it, compared to a 2-stroke gas saw.. I hated trying to start that finicky little engine after it had been sitting for a year or two.. And, the noise!!! Dang!!! :eek: |
I have a Harbor Freight electric chain saw . Used it some this summer to trim some trees . So far , I am satisfied with what I got , considering the $ 50 price .
I would have never gotten the chore done ( as far along as I did ) with a hand saw . Bought their pole saw , but so far have not used it yet . Dragging the cord around is kind of a pain , but one of the prices you have to pay for not dealing with gas + 2 cycle oil . And yanking on the starting rope . The noise of a gas engine never bothered me . It sounded good . It was audible reinforcement that I finally got the darn thing started . God bless Wyr |
When I used the old gas saw, if it was a big job, I would stop and go find some ear protection.
Small saw=small muffler. I never liked trying to get the everything just right before it would start. Reminds me of a hard-to-start model airplane engine. Even with the hand-held electric starter, some of them are a real pain. The only RC engine I really like is my 4-stroke..It starts easy and looks like a tiny motorcycle engine.. ;) http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f1...SPA3D/42bd.jpg |
Too many saws are cheap junk and you can tell by hard starting.
My gas saw is an old echo 440cs I rebuilt. Starts real easy, 1 pull when warm and no more than 3 pulls from cold. I ran my echo out of gas about a year and a half ago and put it away, I filled it up yesterday and it fired right up like I had used it the day before. I have an electric craftsman too, it put my old 2hp McCulloch to shame. |
McCulloch for sale, $20 and you pickup... :)
