    • @AlexTimm
      @AlexTimm  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes, no joke. It was hard waiting!! I believe the pistol bit will work, but Matt Halverson from Eskimo said it isn't recommended as the aggressiveness of the blades aren't a good match for the gearing on the powerhead. So perhaps while you might be able to, it might not be the best idea. But who am I to tell you not to try it? Haha

      Now imagine if there is an ice show or holiday sale price on top of it?!?!? (I have no clue if that will happen, but could you imagine?).

  • @euresko1
    @euresko1 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Only problem with that ice anchor adapter on that big head unit is not being able to see the anchor when your drilling into your tent. It'll take two hands to hold the head unit so just free drilling the anchor with no hands on the anchor could be iffy. I'd rather use a small drill for that.

    • @AlexTimm
      @AlexTimm  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Valid point, probably need to get it started by hand then the rest of the way with the adapter if going to do it this way. Still no drill to bring though if done this way

    • @leelantern805
      @leelantern805 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yeah, that's a good point. I'll probably still keep the m12 drill for anchors, but being able to store the head for travel is a great idea

Haven't hole hopped much but still in the market for a nice electric auger. Money isn't a problem but the cheapest option in my area is the 40v strike master right now at $680 the e40 steel is $699 with a extra battery i believe it's the steel one which is still lighter than the 40v sm but then of course there's the alpha ion plus at $1199
