  1. 1. Are Husqvarna battery chargers made of cheese?

    • Yes, they're made of cheese. I had a Husqvarna charger and it failed on me.

    • Yes, they're made of cheese. I have a Husqvarna charger. It hasn't failed yet but I'm worried it will.

    • No, they're not. I have one and it hasn't failed yet. What's all the fuss about?

    • Yes, they're made of cheese. I own another brand's charger and it's fine. I wouldn't touch a Husky battery charger if you paid me.

    • Yes, they're made of cheese. 2 stroke all the way. This sort of thing is why I won't go electric.

So, the Mrs wrestled the remote off me two weeks ago at the opening ceremony and I thought while the break dancing's* on I'd do some "science".  There's a lot on this forum and others about Husqvarna chargers (QC330 especially) failing so here's where we find out for the first time if indeed Husky battery chargers are made of cheese.

 

[Serious voice] If there's a design problem, then Husqvarna should be fixing it**.  If you sink the better part of a grand into a chainsaw system, all the parts need to last. If a battery charger turns out to be a "consumable" after a year or two, then 2 stroke's looking like a cheaper option. And it's not fair for UK retailers if they've got to suck up losses from bad (Swedish) Husqvarna designs***.

 

*Seriously, WTF?!

**I think there is, I'll post after the poll

***Trustpilot rating of 1.6!!!

My charger so far has been ok but the battery wouldn't charge after about 10 charges, it was still under guarantee and the shop where I bought it from would not replace it. If a product goes wrong that's bad enough but I think Husky dealers from my experiences are atrocious. Had to by another larger one at £140.
