Any electrical chain saw would ever be comparable to a gas driven saw, not a chance. I've been cutting wood for years and my hands can testify of the power of a good chain saw.
Electrical is a non started - a good toy for very small limbs however.
You got that right ..
Proud owner of 3 Stihl chainsaws.. and thinking about a 4th .
1)- A Pole Saw or Pruning saw , although Pricey , best investment in a saw I have ever made .. as it can easily reach Limbs like 15 Feet straight up . what a pleasure to just walk around a tree and prune it neat from below . Shoulder strap makes it easy to carry the weight . and it can easily cut through like 6" ,but safety is a major consideration with this saw .
This is definitely a Saw I would recommend to anyone who is pruning trees ..
but I guess you COULD get away with 40 Volt pruning saw ..its just not the same power though . no way
2)- An Arborists saw which can be used one handed .. but this is also a major safety consideration, as you can get too comfortable with it ..
3)- A monster 461, with 28" bar which can Fell almost any tree I need to take down.. definitely not a toy.
Stihl Chainsaws imo are the best out there .. nothing even comes close .
U can probably ship one down with the bar removed . dont see why not .
Pole saw would not be so easy to ship, . but would make you the envy of all your neighbors .
