I think as a tool for mostly domestic stumps using the Avant I can’t see it working well. I have gone a bit cold on the idea if I’m honest.

Yawn!

Back at it, both from a work point of view and from the chiropractor’s POV. Bit of adjustment needed, I’ll get on the blower to the bone-cracker once they open. Otherwise 2 smallish routine TDs and a grind. Nose back to the grind stone lads.

Doable, but not really the point if you get me.

Difficulty is Pete, finding a single punter who says ‘yes I’ve got one and it’s great’

The amount I saw in West Sussex when I was back for Christmas was astonishing. All the Carlos Fandango special models as well, snorkelled up for the rainforest.

À lot of metrosexuals have them.

Remember it well.

Just in case there’s any confusion. The big battery physically won’t fit on the charger, not that it’s not suitable electrically or whatever.

Yes.

At the bottom of the reply box it says choose files (underlined) press that a box will come up with three choices, the first is ‘photo library’ choose that and the rest is intuitive.

Good points, and the little I’ve been able to glean over the internet points to operation not being as easy as the vid illustrates. But I could sell the Bandit and buy this without losing money. Take it to work on the back of the truck rather than a dedicated trailer.. Can’t seem to find any first hand experience though.

I’ll say one thing for January, it’s an honest month, no stupid themed holidays like Valentines, Thanksgiving, Mother’s Day or the like. Back to work, 31 days, crap weather, short days, get on with it. It’s my spirit month, I respect it’s dogged adherence to grimness.

Then it’s on you, you didn’t tell them there was an issue, you just asked them to service it. -
Yes, but I’d already have an Avant on site so there’d be an easier clear up.

Sounds about right. Why not do it yourself?

The video shows it whooping the pants off a 35 hp laski, but of course it’s trying to sell the product.

These seem like the real deal, especially if you have the right machine to put it on. Anyone on here used/owns or had consensual sex with anyone who has seen one care to pass opinion?

Anyway, to give closure. I went and picked up the battery (€700) and tried it out, firstly very heavy, heavier than a 550 petrol, it cut well for 10 seconds then the battery was flat, so I went to charge it and realised I’d need a new charger to go with my two others. This was the straw that broke the camels back, so I took the saw and battery back to the dealer, said I didn’t want them, did a deal for an Echo 2511 and left it there. Conclusion: unless you’re not spending your own money ie. you purchase saws for a council or the like, don’t get this saw.
