gas vrs electric chain saw Original Message Apr 27, 2011 1:12 am
My 3.5 hp Pollman electric chain saw broke the other day . Is there a difference in performance gas vrs electric. Who makes a good chain saw? Who is top wood chuck? I'm cutting 12-14" dia. trees and a few telephone polls . What units do you guys have and how do you like them. i like light units. My 3.5 hp electric weight is 5-7 lbs. Gas units weigh that in the small range but the HP is lower 2.3 Hp. Will it out perform my old electric? Does anyone know. I'v been looking at Stiel, Echo and Huskuverna. i have a Echo powered tiller with no problems also a Husuverna weed eater with no real problems. Some folks say Echo is heavier than a Husuverna. Others say a lower end Husuverna is a Pollman. I don't have very little feedback on Stiel. I'm tird of buying junk.
