Ion R1 Electric Ice Auger Review

[@OffGridWithChrisandKristie]

That looks like a great little rig. The gas powered ones are such a pain to get started!

[@BuickOutdoors]

Haha yes they are. Itll take some time before I for sure say that this was worth the money but from what I've seen online from other guys, there hasn't been many complaints about them.

I have ion 3amp and 1 4amp battery. The 3amp can get about 30 holes at 18” thick. I’m hoping the 4amp does better since I have not Ben able to use it yet. I have the older ion, the 2016 model.

How’s ice fishing going

[@BuickOutdoors]

Not so great so far this year. Not enough ice in November then the one set of days off I had in December, the weather was absolutely miserable. Worked for a month and now I'm on days off again and we will be heading to the lake soon. When I filmed this I was going to fish but there was a bunch of flood water that started to come up the hole and my dogs feet were getting soaked so I didn't stay to fish.
