I would be one of them. I just had my neck reconstructed and I am the sole climber for my company. No more drop starting for me. This makes perfect sense for me.

I have been waiting for those to 'come across' for a few years now - had some positive reviews on another site.  Bosch also has some available only in Europe

I have been using the Oregon 40V saw for 2+ years, and have tried cutting with the STIHL at demos.  Picked up and 'ran' a Makita top handle at a tool show - could be nice for guys in a tree.

Seeing more and more of these, along with 'families' of OPE, such as string trimmers, hedge trimmers, etc. that use the same batteries.

I've got a Stihl ms160ce, I think, and the trimmer as well. Decent saw just not as a climber. It will cut all day at the chipper though.

Makita - can run on a 36V battery, or (2) 18V batteries, if you already have some of their 18V carpentry tools:

Uses 3/8 low profile, narrow kerf (Oregon type 90) chain.

I've run those Makitas and quite frankly they are a toy in comparison. The Husky is what I want.

Yeah we all know chain and operator could throw off test comparsion. Was interesting to see though.

Husqvarna Battery Powered 536 vs Gas Powered 435



My neighbor across the highway has a rear handle 435 with .325 NK chain and it cuts a lot better than that 435T

Jim wouldnt those be 2 different 435 motors.
The 435T is a redmax gz3500t 35.23cc     1.94 hp.
The husky 435 rear handle is Sweden husky made 40.9cc     2.2 hp.

You're probably correct. I thought it was a Strato but it could also be a Husqvarna made motor. You've run it and looked at it under the covers.
