Maintaining chainsaw is pain in the ass. I have a petrol one for trees, and a small 36v for carpentry (clean dry wood so less maintenance) , it's the best compromise for me.

@@perrinekld7451 so true. Electric chainsaw is less maintenance on the motor side (none with electric ones), but then you have to use cables, which is not an issue arround the workshop, but it's a pain in the ass to lay down 50 meters of extension cable when you work on the far end of the garden. Also electrics are heavy like damn bricks. The power output is almost the same with hobby-class gasoline saws but god, the electrics are heavy AF.

I wish I’d heard of this before I bought the chainsaw. The chain kept falling off no matter what I did. Ended up giving it to my gardener for free. This is all I would have needed for cutting through a thick root that was beyond the scope of the heavier cutting shears

Chainsaws generally need two hands and a firm safe two feet stance because of kickback. Reciprocating saws do not have the same kickback issue so safer up a ladder.

Remember the weight also plays a role, in how it cuts. Thats why one would assume, these can be quite heavy. Nice explanation. You should do a range of vids, on how to use all the different types of electric tools. Like you said, alot of people often use these tools wrong.

Had the Hitachi corded version. Don't know where it's gone. I let someone borrow it. Hated it. Always felt clumsy and unbalanced and cutting was not as precise as others. Hearing good things about new Hikoki stuff and will give them a look if I need any more tools. And, yes, I did push it against the workpieces and tree branches
