    Im very surprised and impressed! Looks like it has a fair bit of power and its good to see someone using a chainsaw the correct way. well done mate

    Wow, who woulda thought...its the Tesla of saws!. If you're a hunter and need to blaze a trail thru bush discreetly then this is the go-to tool. Absolutely great for packing in front compartment of my Kawasaki Mule 610xc.

    Have you read and inspect other reviews on rechargeable brushless chainsaw from other brand ? Caue i am confuse between the stihl, oregan, hasqvarna and victa ? Any recommendations would be much appreciated. Dewalt, greenwork, Black&dicker, zoombi and craftsman are all excluded from the list due to ether bad or moderate reviews.

      MAKITA has the best built batteries and best built electric motors in market bar non also chances are the user would already have some tools with that battery platform. so if one has that battery platform already then buying a bare tool is still cheaper. these batteries are made with also the best and most costly materials of any battery like the casing.

      Most good battery saws output around 1200 watts under maximum loading. Those you mentioned are all good. This is not much different than corded saws, but since battery saws are usually brushless, they are a bit more energy efficient. Saw batteries usually contain anywhere from around 150 to 300 watt hours of energy. It's on the specifications for your batteries. A half kilowatt will cut a fair size pickup truck load from 16 inch logs. If you want to cut firewood, have enough batteries to total more than 500 watt hours and have multiple chargers. Fill your wagon or truck, go home, unload, rest, eat, drink and while you are doing that recharge your batteries. This shouldn't take more than about an hour.
      The batteries and their cost is a big consideration. It's best to stick with a single platform. Makita is great since they don't bother with a separate outdoor yard tool battery. For those who aren’t familiar with batteries and electrical terms, voltage doesn’t measure power or capacity to do work or chain speed. Amp hours isn't work or total power either. To estimate how much wood you can cut you need volts, amps and time. You need watt-hours. Multiply the voltage of your saw by the amp hour rating. This is watt hours. Be careful, some companies use “max" or maximum voltage for marketing. Always use the actual running voltage which has to be a multiple of the 3.6V lithium cell.
      Here’s some data for comparison that I’ve acquired for those who are interested:
      Ryobi 40V (36V nom) 5Ah battery weighs 3.05 lbs (32) x (5) = 160 watt hours
      Briggs & Stratton (Victa) 82Vmax 72V nom 5.7 lbs (72) x (4) = 288 watt hours
      Husqvarna 36V (nom) 4.2 Ah battery weighs 3.21? lbs (36)x(4.2) = 151 watt hrs
      Greenworks 72V nom (80 max) 4 Ah battery weighs 5.5 lbs (72)x(4) = 288 watt hrs
      Greenworks 72V (80 max) 2 Ah battery weighs 2.8 lbs (72)x(2) = 144 watt hrs
      Milwaukee 18V (nom) 12Ah battery weighs 3.7 lbs. (18)x(12) = 216 watt hrs
      Makita takes two standard tool batteries of any amp hr rating. They all weigh nearly the same.
      Two (2) Makita 18V (nom) 6 Ah batteries weigh 2.7 lbs. (2)x(6)x(18) = 216 watt hrs.
      Makita also runs on 5, 4 and 3 Ah batteries with progressively lower run times with the same approximate weight. (2) x (5) x (18) = 180, (2) x (4) x (18) = 144, and (2) x (3) x (18) = 108
      Echo 54V 2Ah weights 2.65 lbs (54) x (2) = 108 watt hrs
      Echo 54V 4Ah weights 4.1 lbs (54) x (4) = 232 watt hrs
      Dewalt 54V (nom, not max) 4Ah battery weighs 3.2 lbs (54)x(4) = 216 watt hrs
      Still with 36V 4.9 Ah battery weighs 3.8lbs (36)x(4.2) = 178 watt hrs
      Stihl with 36V 6.3 Ah (AP 300) weighs 3.8lbs (36)x(6.3) = 226 watt hrs
      Redback 120V [108?]3Ah battery weighs 4.0 lbs (108)x(3) = 324 watt hrs
      EGO 56V 5 Ah battery weighs 4.9 lbs (56) x (5) = 280 watt hrs
      McCulloch 36V (nom) (36) x (4) = 144 watt hrs
      Most of these saw brands appear as though they cut equally well during use. My Makita with a 16" bar and full chisel chain it seems to cut about the same as the best I've witnessed in videos. I take along tool batteries equivalent to about 500 watt hours and cut all that my RZR can safely handle in steep terrain. I cut 9" length, which requires twice the normal amount of cutting for the same amount of firewood.
      Let's say you're using a Greenworks 4Ah battery that contains 144 watt hours of energy and it draws 1000 watts while under full load. It can maintain full load draw [(60x144)/1000] = for 8.6 minutes. Of course one seldom maintains constant full load in the normal course of cutting wood, so the battery appears to last much much longer than that.
      Voltage has little to do with torque or chain speed. High voltage justs allow for smaller wires in the motor windings and connections, and marketing hype. For example, the 18V Milwaukee produces a "ton" of torque and chain speed. The downside is that the motor has to be really heavy & beefy in order to handle high amperes. Total saw weight is important to some. Light high energy density batteries combined with light motors (higher voltage) produces the lightest saws without sacrificing power output.

    That's not a real chainsaw! It does cut pretty fast, but where is the roar that lets people know men are working with hydrocarbons? I think Makita needs to make this one in pink!

      I know I know. It does loose some of the traditional chainsaw fun, but it is a good tool! It is great for my purposes. If I was using a chainsaw all day I would stick to petrol. But when you just want to do a few quick cuts then this is the way to go. No priming, no choke, no fumes, low noise, no fuel mixing, no waiting for the damn thing to warm up, no pulling your guts out wondering why it won't start. It has a lot of pros! It is better than my petrol Hitachi which I will be getting rid of now that I know the Makita can cut the mustard.

    Try it in 300 years old oak from Poland or in siberian pine and then say you used it in real wood.
