I don't think there is cause for much optimism about additional HH versions of the Jonnys coming to the US. Husky has seemingly killed the HH versions of the 576, 390 and 395 due to low sales numbers.

I think part of the problem is that dealers just don't stock the things, and a pro shop really ought to have a few around IMO. Granted, 85% of my sales are pro saws, and I've focused the biz in that direction. But the sales momentum I've generated with the heated handle saws started because I put the saws on the shelf for guys to see. They are usually only a $50 jump in price from the standard models, so it's not a big expense to keep your fingers warm. Once guys try 'em, they don;t go back. This time of year, my 2163WH is my do almost everything saw.

There is one downside though: When saws get crunched, it's a PITA dealing with all of those wires!
