Ego Power+ 16 Chainsaw Kit

Bought this instead of gas to be able to use the battery for my ego sno blower. So far it has not dissapoint being able to have longer run time. The only thing is the blade got dull quite often because of the type of wood being cut, other than that, its a strong electric chainsaw. I got the 16".

Really happy with this 16” chain saw. I use it mostly for bucking, limbing and cutting small trees. It replaces a Stihl MS250 I had that was stolen. The little 2.5 battery handles a surprising amount of work. The new chain does stretch. Mine jumped off the sprocket after a few hours of first use. I will have to check chain tension more often.

Have used maybe 6-8 times so far and seems to work pretty well. Not sure it could tackle a tree but handy for smaller branches and brush. Slightly heavier than I expected (I also have a gas one) but appreciate the battery. This is my 4th EGO tool and I'm a fan.

Nice and light saw for cleaning up after the storms. Very easy to use and holds a charge for long enough to get most jobs done. If not sit down for a bit and it charges right back up. Plus no gas to mix and no fight to get the gas one started. Quick and easy

Overall, the Ego Power+ 16" chain saw is a good product. It was easy to use and cut very well. The removeable side cover made clean out a breeze. One negative aspect of the product is the difficulty seeing the chain oil level without removing the cap since the reservoir and Ego oil are both light colors. However, that is a minor issue. I'm pleased with the product and would purchase again.

Easy to grab and go, none of this 'is the gas fresh' or 'where are the chain adjustment tools'. I own several EGO tools so a battery is always ready and the chain adjustment tools are built into the EGO saw. Just keep the bar oil where you can find it and you're ready to go. I also keep an extra chain around, all saws work best with a sharp chain.

I had several branches that I needed to remove that were thicker than I could handle with pruning sheers, and an invasive Brazilian Pepper tree that needed to come down. The eGo chainsaw was surprisingly powerful and cut through 3-inch limbs with ease. Thee best part was not having to fiddle with gasoline, a pull cord, and a stubborn carburetor. Just slide in the battery and go. The 16-inch chainsaw shares the 2.5 amp battery with my other eGo tools so the extra investment was very manageable.

this is my third chainsaw over 40 years or so . The gas one was loud, the plug in electric was a pain to use and under powered. This fit the bill. I probably should have purchased the 14 inch instead of the 16 inch because I rarely use a chainsaw. The log I was cutting was almost too big for the 16 inch. (Each quarter of the oak log required cutting from each side). The saw had no issues. Still, remember to use safety glasses and ear protection.

My old ICE chainsaw finally died - well, I got tired of the constant repairs, tweaks that were required on a monthly basis - and I replaced it with this EGO. The EGO just runs - no cold start sequence I have to go through - even when it's been sitting for several weeks. It weighs pretty much the same and does the job just as well without the hassle.

I have only used this saw a couple times at this point but I love how smooth it runs and the automatic oiling is great compared to my old plug in saw. Battery life is good and helped by the other 2 batteries I have from my other EGO products. I look forward to years of service from this saw.
