Man battery operated power tools have really come a long way! I recently started working for a really cool guy who has a distributor deal with Milwaukee and gets them at almost half price, he offered to place an order for me if I ever needed anything so obviously I'm getting a truckload of tools including this sweet pole saw haha!
I need to trim a good quantity of branches in my backyard so I figured might as well purchase a Milwaukee telescope saw to get the job done instead of spending the money on labor. I was immediately convinced of buying this tool as soon as I saw the home depot videos of it in use. Great review muchas gracias amigo.
Another great, honest review. The manufacturers are happy to tell us everything great about their products. The weaknesses are what we buyers need to know, and this channel gives us the thorough understanding we need. Just a shame there’s no way of attaching it to the drills we already own. I suppose that would put a lot of leverage on the chuck without an elaborate mounting system.
I am in the Dewalt battery platform. I would like to see you get adapters for all the tools you test and let us know if it will fit a different brand battery and adapter.
There's this tree branch at my apartment..🤔 Keeps hitting my window and waking me up at 3am... I wonder if home depot rents these out. I live on the 3rd floor, probably would have to lean out my window to use it. I'm sure it's safe. No more branches waking me up. Thanks for the review.
I had one of these.. not bad. I did return it though and went a different route (just used a my chainsaw and a friend's man lift lol). MUCH cheaper from home depot than the links in the description..
Dude I promise that from what I have seen these chainsaws are really hard on the batterys in particular the 8 ah idk why but my 2826-20 top handle will time out my 6.0 hopefully forge won’t (that’ll be a good test, test the pecans on the chainsaw what it poles and how the forge reacts) which nothing else has timed out the 6 much like this and im almost sure the 2826 destroyed 2 8.0ah burnt up (or drained beyond thresholds on one of the strings of cells to become imbalanced) so it won’t take a charge now it’s something like that or the peak amps it was pulling fried some thing on the battery board, but I’m not seeing any burn marks. I opened it up to examine out of curiosity and my gut tells me that I’m missing something 😂obviously I’m no expert but I’m inclined to believe it was the saw either like I previously mentioned imbalanced the cells but it’s a really powerful saw and beats an ms194 gas saw in a one cut race which is impressive imo ….I also have the 2727-20 the 16 inch rear handle and either I’ve convinced myself of this or does the 2727 seemingly not oozing with the same torque as the 2826 but they have the same motor correct?? I use the top handle a ton more It is a fantastic saw both are good honestly but in good conscience I can’t recommend either if you don’t have already have a cpl 12s or at minimum 4 or 5 of the 6ah so on top of the 350$ base saw and bar chain supply ur own bar oil then another ( at least for new ) 12ah it’d be 450$ at minimum (Amazon) to do a cpl standard pickup truckload: or so (1 cord or so of fire wood) just one man’s two pennies, take it with a grain of salt ……but a word to the wise stick to using the 12 amp hour batteries in any of their legitimate full size chainsaws to be safe
Bs you never had this milwaukee pole saw you had the quik lock Milwaukee one very big difference this telescope pole saw by Milwaukee is miles better far more power!

It is a great saw!

This is the one to get! Nice review.

I have had very bad luck with adapters. The power just does not seem to get through the adaptor correctly.
Any other accessories that attaches to the pole saw?
This is a dedicated pole saw.
great review makes me want one lol thanks

Use a pruner pole with a lopper head and snip the stuff out the window
Um, how bout calling the property manager and telling them to prune the branch away from the window. You pay rent for a reason.
I can't justify the price to save a few seconds per cut. I only make a few hundred cuts per year.
That’s why I’m hoping you could attach more tools to the end.

When did you have one? These just came out and Home Depot currently does not sell them. I dont think you had this one.
Did you have the Quik-Lok one? This is a standalone saw, not an attachment
