Top handle saw

[Cov Climber]

Hi, I'm desperate for a top handle saw but I'm fed up of waiting for Husqvarna to release the new t 540. Any Idea when It's coming out?

I'm a Husky man myself but think i may have to buy a stihl.

 

Cheers

Why not buy a 150t? Not big enough for big dismantles but plenty for most things and will still have a place when the husky eventually comes out. Not too expensive either... I do fancy one myself, got to finish rebuilding the 200t first though...

I've had a look at the T150 and can't believe how light it was.

I would like one but I'm not sure if I would be better off buying a second hand T200. Any idea where i could get a good second hand T200 from?

Thanks for getting back to me and good luck with rebuilding your t200

Spud might have one. I've got a couple I'm re-building, will keep one sell one... I reckon 150 would do maybe 75% of my top handle work..... It's on the massive lst!

+1 its the way forward there light no fuel to worry about a oil fill will last a charge. pull trigger it cuts let go its stops so no pulling or running saws. ideal up a tree for limb work. or hedgelaying as for models. i am still looking at the oregen Forest and Arb winchester doing them for £500 including spare battery inc vat.

Here is a quote from user "wouter" regarding cutting speeds in response from another user.

Wouter is a big fan if the husky cordless and uses over most of his other TH saws including his 200!

 

The thread was in f r jones sponsored forum "battery top handle now in stock" worth a read as some really interesting posts in there.

 

"We had a small field test with the 150 VS the Battery saw. And with the Echo 260TES VS the 150Echo beats the 150 and the T536LiXP beats both !I think I'll put up a little vid one of these days with the 150 VS the battery saw ;-)The vid about the echo VS the 150 is allready on youtube"
