Well I’ll put it this way. Conservatives resist change. The thought of battery powered tools that have no cords represents change and is therefore bad
The market is the true indicator. All tool makers from the worst at Harbor Freight to the best at DeWalt and Stihl have transitioned to battery power. Like the failing American automakers some jury rig an existing tool and others redesign from scratch
Nuclear power like I have doesn’t pollute
Yep, just look at all those conservatives insisting on their landline phones, rejecting that new fangled cellular. People will flock to change when it benefits them. I have both gas and electric lawn tools, I bought the electric stuff because I was tired of replacing fuel lines that the ethanol gas was destroying (California blend if that matters). None of my electric tools work as well as my gas stuff. My son bought Dewalt 40v lawn tools which work great and I shopped for some, then I saw the price tag. Eventually, but I'm not spending that much money to replace what works perfectly fine.
No, you are resistant to facts.
I have four chainsaws: 8", 16", 36", and 60". Find me a 36-60" electric chainsaw. There isn't one. The reason is lack of power.
Torque X Speed is POWER. With an electric chainsaw you can have torque or chain speed, but not both. Your EGO has torque, but not chain speed.
I had a job cutting about a half acre of seedling trees. I needed a small saw I could wear on a tool belt so that I could wear a backpack sprayer with a dauber on the end while cutting to treat the cut stubs within a minute (else they callus and the trees would regenerate). Stihl made their GTA 26 with marginal chain speed, but the battery is totally inadequate. They tried to get torque by reducing the chain to 6" but the torque isn't there. They do make a climbing saw that works, but they accomplished it by making the climber wear a the battery on the belt and running a cord to the saw. If you've ever climbed with gaffs and a belt, you'd know that's a safety issue, but I'd bet not.
My 8" saw is electric, a brand spanking new "Milwaukee M18 Hatchet." Milwaukee's battery is adequate (I already had 2 for a drill, which is why I bought the Milwaukee) but they went for torque instead of chain speed on an 8" bar. Yeah, it'll cut a 6" branch. So what? So will my 16" gas powered MS-200T. With a chain that slow it hops and hangs on small branches, effectively the job for which it was supposedly designed. The damned thing is dangerous.
I bought the Milwaukee for cutting sapling trees (said job for which it was supposedly designed). It's a homeowner toy, not a tool. The damned thing is dangerous for doing real work.
But for that Stihl MSA 161T, electric technology isn't there yet for chainsaws in professional use. The left doesn't care. Minnesota's timber has recovered from Fred Weyerhaeuser's rape of that State. But heck, he was a Wall Street tycoon, not a real logger. His ilk would rather kill the domestic timber industry so that their corporate donors can cash in on harvesting overseas. They'll burn our forests instead, then to be overwhelmed with exotic weeds and a carpet of seedling trees, if they're lucky. It is a catastrophic environmental policy, and (unlike you) I do know whereof I speak. Deal with it.
