Has anyone with one of the more modern electric battery chainsaws put it to the test in a proper Puna downpour? After all, if you're not clearing trees in board shorts and slippahs in the rain, like some local legends recently, are you even really living the Puna lifestyle?
Thank you for your knowledge of tools. An electric (AC) saw is mightier that a battery powered tool. It takes up to four batteries for a Makita 18 v saw to take down a few Areca palm trees. That's my experience. Even a Home Depot Ryobi chainsaw is stronger. When in Puna, I recommend 20 batteries for a one week electricity outage. Twice that amount if you live in Leilani Estates. Hope you get power before Moke strikes.
