ok guys went down to my local dealer and what did they have on demo was the pellenc c20 i had to have a go and i tell you what for battery power saw i was very impressed this could take over petrol power i no its a big statement but my got it was good equivalent to a 45cc petrol saw in power witch is more than any top handle saw iv seen as light as a freaking spoon the only down side was the price thats what killed it for me anybody els had a look and go on them is it all what its cracked out to be in long term

I've googled it and it looks like a top handle with a backpack battery - is that correct?

I tried one on demo a few weeks back, with the power pack being on your back and a lead to the saw I thought it was utter rubbish, not powerful enough for my liking either

[markrufrider]

i no what your saying riggerbear but its definitely the start of something im sure a more powerful one will come soon they do have a strimmer thats equivalent to 60cc gas power so im sure they could easily transfer motors and its the battery that i was most impressed with a 5 cell battery pack that i had would last 1 to 2 days depending on usage that is pretty impressive a little more power and it would be awesome as for the cable from the battery i think i could live with that its no diffrent to having your top handle saw strapped to your harness when your up a tree but its just my own opinion

[markrufrider]

yes monkey business it is a top handle with battery pack

If you want to knock lumps out a big beech or oak, don't bother!

For light pruning it's great, very fast!
