Cordless mini chainsaws - ?

[scooby1]

I managed to find a recip blade for my saw which was over 300 mm long, but unfortunately the extra strain of a long blade meant it snapped very quickly at the fixing point.

Thank you @foxhole. All that sort of information helps us on forums such as this. In actual fact the Head Gardener has informed me that she has ordered this for me to use : https://www.amazon.co.uk/Chainsaw-Compatible-Batteries-Brushless-Lubricator/dp/B0D93D375Z?th=1 I liked the idea for tightening the chain. The usual method is a bit fiddly on these mini saws. And it has got a bar oiler which I like.

But apparently I have to wait until Father Christmas brings it down the chimney on the night of the 24th of this month.

But a sincere thank you to everyone who has contributed to my topic and query. I've learnt a lot about other saws. Thank you and a very Happy Christmas to you all.

For £10 extra you can get 2 x 4 amp batteries instead of 2 amp.

Thank you @johnny2007. I'm afraid that I am ignorant about small battery power. I think I understand about volts but what exactly do amps mean ? There seems to be so many sizes and capacities of these small batteries.

More amps=longer working time.

It was a special order item. Built to order. Quite expensive too. Had to get it on instalments.

Its quite deceptive really as it can cut through steel too!

I cant as its an item still under certain development from the grey people. I wasnt supposed to show it.

All i can tell you is that it only works to its full capacity in the paws of a Corgi...

Would think keeping chain sharp is biggest problem with a tiny chain saw , do they have lubrication?

I bought a cheap one, 2 batteries, 2 chains & it has lubrication. Well pleased with it. Topped my silver birch tree last month.
