Chainsaw in a can, very impressive how quick it cuts for manual cutting.

These are awesome for use and take up so little space
Personally still carry the folding HD pruning saw in the sled, takes some effort but use it to cut dry trees for fires all the time, really all you need unless you are bucking up 16" trees.

I don't know about you guys, but I'd always forget to keep the battery charged. Handpowered saw doesn't have that issue.

Yah I know it would be dead every time I go to use it. Same reason I haven’t bought a battery powered ice auger.

And that is why i have two batteries for the saw and the auger - usually at least one is charged.....lol.

Mount the charger under the hood. Keep the battery in the charger. Ride n charge.

Whether you are being sarcastic or not, I feel I should correct this as these batteries are no joke. Over the past number of years, company I work with has run into heat issues with rechargable batteries. We attribute some of that to corrosion, but we have fast chargers which haven't been in that environment bubble to the point where you have to pitch them. We learned an interesting lesson a few years back when a battery, coming back from a job site, was cleaned, and left in it's case not connected to a tool. It arced without any persuasion and we lost about $1.5M of shop, no because of fire, but because of a heat event. There were a handful of batteries in cases on a pallet in the middle of a shop bay with nothing surrounding them. Heat event became so hot, even with 20ft ceilings, the roof tar melted and ran down the downspouts. After seeing all this, no way I will leave batteries in a charger unattended or near a heat source ever.

No really tiny but I purchased the 12 inch bar 20 volt dewalt chain saw

Used it all of November at hunting camp

Impressed with how well it worked and how long the battery lasted

For a 200.00 saw

$200 saw and $300 battery ?

I already had batteries with the other 20 volt dewalt tools I have.

Never needed more batteries.

Batteries are not 300.00.
Home Depot has them on sale at different times. Not sure the price.
