A lot longer than you'd think. I used one for 2 years. Cut up tree service wood that was 24 inches in diameter. I cut at least 30 face cords until I switched over to a CS590 for speed reasons. But I still use it every once in awhile when it's early and I want to get work done
You're not the first person to say they had the ryobi 40v...the battery is the issue for me...I don't want to have to stop and wait for it to charge if I'm in the groove
@EverythingElliott I bought a second 40v 6a battery that is better. Then the 40v 4a is my backup. Plenty enough to do the work. It's too much to have a cord so far from the house.
Nice video, I will be purchasing the Dewalt 60 18 inch cordless. Most of what I cut is smaller and it is a game changer so says my neighbor who cuts wood like you. Dont be afraid to transition to electric.
I’ve used that exact dewalt you’re talking about. My friend Cam has one. Only thing I don’t like is I burnt through an entire battery after one log. Having so many charged batteries on hand would be unreasonable. I like the idea of unlimited electricity with the plug.
I just purchased the dewalt 60v with the 16inch bar and I’m impressed so far. I just posted a video on my channel about it with some cuts. Check it out if you’re interested.
@@EverythingElliott I got mine with the 9 amp hour battery and honestly it’s impressive how long it’ll last on that. I bought it just for some stuff. If I’m running my saw for a while I’ll just get the gas saws out!
I'm impressed. Better to have it electric than battery for me. Batteries go dead and cost a lot when they need to be replaced. I believe it will hold up longer than you think. My grandfather bought one in the late 70's early 80's and I just used it a year or two ago. Now granted it wasn't used for cutting firewood all day but it did hold up. I have no idea what the brand even is.
Seems like it will serve its purpose. I have one remaining old Husky corded saw that would occasionally fry the switch but yours seems much improved and probably more powerful.
Well, I understand the situation you are in, it is an impressive little saw, when the weather gets warm, it will definitely overheat on you. I just hope there’s not a Tesla parked in your driveway next week.😳😳😳😳😳😳
no maintence, no filling, lighter, not as much protection required... no playing with the throttle, no tuning, no gas. can take your time cause not wasting fuel idling... and if you are away from a plug, go cordless or bring a small generator. free to run if your offgrid on a sunny day. great for cutting and falling smaller trees ( the cordless ones ).
I have two of these cs 1500 for chainsaw carving in the winter. Have had the both for over two years. Only issue I’ve had is the oiler not working consistently. Not a big fan of the self shaping chain because it makes it so dangerous to move because the razor sharp teeth catch your hands and clothing, all the time But at the same time it cuts white like butter. Also the bar has to be cleaned a lot more with this saw. Or stops oiling
As long as you’re running power out there might as well get like a Milwaukee rocket light and either 12 or 18 V. I think either one at this point can be powered by a cord as well as batteries.
I’ve run battery saws before and wasn’t impressed how long the battery lasts before having to put a new battery in. Having that many charged batteries on hand would be unreasonably expensive
Chain length was one factor. Having to swap to a new battery every couple cuts was the bigger factor. I’ve ran the dewalt battery saw and was less than impressed with the battery life
Ummm, news flash, on every construction job in America is running on cordless power tools. In fact, you can't find corded power tools in the big box stores. Everything else is electric- vehicles, weedeaters, blowers, lawnmowers, etc. Why not chainsaws?
It will probably be the only saw you use for splitting. Felling a tree, doubtful. I dont think it would withstand the abuse that comes in that scenario.

How long do you think this Electric Chainsaw is going to last?

I have a RYOBI 40v battery 14 inch saw. That thing handles the workload with no issues. I've taken down trees with it too!

Having enough batteries on hand would be unreasonable expensive...exactly why I went corded!
Works better than I thought it would. Not sure it would be my solution but definitely will be for yours. Good video EE
Works great for what it is! As long as it doesn’t wake the baby it’s a good solution in my books
It did better than I thought it would. Looking forward to the following reviews on it.
Initial impressions were great, we will see if it can keep up
Seems like it will serve its purpose. I have one remaining old Husky corded saw that would occasionally fry the switch but yours seems much improved and probably more powerful.
For the $100 or so I invested, seems like a very good purchase! Thanks for watching!

Never thought about it overheating in the summer. Might have to test that
i love my electric saw, got one from hyundai
I had no idea they made them…they make just about everything I guess.

I actually have a solar generator that I want to try it with to see if that’ll run it
Nothing my 48v Ryobi can’t do while sipping my morning latte
operating a chainsaw while drinking a hot beverage sounds like a recipe for disaster
As long as the saw can achieve the rpm’s and the operator has the skill, it should cut just fine.
And it seems that is the case here
You can never have too many tools in the tool box. I'm surprised as well that it worked that well.
i was blown away how well it worked to be honest...I NEVER expected that performance out of it!
I mean honestly seems perfect for the situation with the little guy. My wife would get mad at me to 😂 Electric definitely has a time and place!
Happy wife, happy life, right! I’ll check out your video later tonight!

Those are excellent tips and I’m glad you said something. I’ll keep an eye on those things. Thanks!
Thoughts on the Milwaukee m18 fuel saw? To match your impacts and drills. We’ve been enjoying the Dewalt ones.
I don’t like the idea of the battery. I’d hate to run out right as I’m in the grove.
As long as you’re running power out there might as well get like a Milwaukee rocket light and either 12 or 18 V. I think either one at this point can be powered by a cord as well as batteries.
I’ve looked into them in the past. They certainly come with the Milwaukee price tag
FYI Dewalt makes a chainsaw with 12 amp hour battery and a 20 inch bar lots of torque even with the 20 inch bar
I’ve run one before, my buddy Cam
Has one. I was less than impressed with the battery life to be honest.
@@EverythingElliott was it’s 60 volt?
You just proved the saying: "Right tool for the job." Your job is helping your son stay asleep. The right tool is a quieter chainsaw.
That’s the truth
It's electric, boogie woogie 😂😂 I think that is a great idea using an electric saw when the kids are napping 💪
Like I said, doing something is better than doing nothing at all! And to be honest I’m very surprised how well it works
Looks good! Im a bit shocked as well by how well it did. Just curious, why corded over battery?
I’ve run battery saws before and wasn’t impressed how long the battery lasts before having to put a new battery in. Having that many charged batteries on hand would be unreasonably expensive
And price, battery ones are expensive
It will last a lot longer if you don't wait to fill the bar oil until you run out of gas.
Haha that’s the truth
I am curious as to why a corded option when others exist with battery packs? Was it mostly chain length?
Chain length was one factor. Having to swap to a new battery every couple cuts was the bigger factor. I’ve ran the dewalt battery saw and was less than impressed with the battery life
@@EverythingElliott thank you for replying. I truly wondered about that. Keep the great videos coming sir!

Two things people hate:
1) everything staying the same
2) change.
Don't be too apologetic, there's nothing wrong with including an electric in your herd. I just got a battery saw last year, it's great for small jobs.
I’m curious as to how long it lasts…I guess only time will tell
It will probably be the only saw you use for splitting.
Felling a tree, doubtful. I dont think it would withstand the abuse that comes in that scenario.
Not to mention getting a cord out in the woods can be cumbersome...
See I have a gas chainsaw, what does this say????? CHINESEIUM JUNK!
The electronic device you just typed this comment out with…where do you think that was made?
