That’s right. My 84 year old dad loves his electric chain saw. Light weight and quiet. Besides, at his age he’s not cutting a bunch. Where as myself I want something with more power and heavier duty. Look at how many people have switched back to gasoline cars after running one in winter if you travel a lot.
As long as my strike master works I’ll keep using gas. Maybe my next will be electric, but who knows, you can find used gas ones pretty reasonable as others buy electric.
I think electric items have their places, I just don't think large commercial jobs are going to be able to work well with them. Can't see a logging crew out in the woods all day changing batteries!
I agree on the choices.
I didn't mean to say that a battery auger was better or greener or whatever. I could care less about that.
It just seems that "most" ice anglers have made a switch to a battery auger in recent years. That's all I was saying. I know about a dozen people who regularly ice fish and they all have battery augers now. I bet if you conducted a survey of all ice anglers, the majority would answer that they use a battery powered auger.
