I'm tired of trying to start the gas one. I have a battery operated blower and weed eater. I love them. Just wondering about a chainsaw with a battery.

    I have an electric, corded chainsaw. Does what I tell it to do.

    I have a Black and Decker battery chainsaw. Works great, but only for small branches. Couldn't cut up firewood with it. The battery is interchangeable with other B&D battery equipment (such as a weed whacker, drill, etc.).

    Only for very very light work. It chews more than cuts. I returned mine to the store and bought the real deal!

    I have cut firewood with my corded saw. Pieces 4" thick.

    An electric cord saw does not have to be re-charged, and cuts great. I used mine to cut a dozen 2" steps from a 12" round trunk. You can resharpen as well
