Question about Strikemaster electric auger

[vanwalleye]

Quick question, just bought a new wheel house, I own a Strikemaster 10" Auger, I bought a Strikemaster electric with an 8" blade was wondering if I can use my 10" blade with that electric auger..

Strikemaster offers their Electric Augers in both 8" and 10" so should be no problem using a 10" on yours depending on what model you have. The lowest end unit only offers up to 8".

Thanks papadarv, I thought it would be okay, I was just worried cause the electric only spins at like 90rpm, and wasn't sure if that would be to much blade for the power output...thanks again now we all need do the ice dance..

Should be just fine. May be slower with the larger diameter bit. Other than being slower it should be fine.
