Battery-powered chainsaws offer a number of benefits that can make your outdoor chores quieter, cleaner and easier.

Are you looking for a chainsaw to help with trimming or other landscaping chores? Then consider battery-powered electric models. Battery-powered chainsaws offer a number of benefits compared to conventional gasoline-fueled models that can make your yard care quieter, cleaner and more convenient.

Simple to start. Gas-fueled chainsaws can be difficult to start, typically requiring users to set the choke and pull a starting string. With a battery-powered model, just insert the battery, push the power button and it's ready to use.

Easy to handle. Battery-powered chainsaws are lighter and more compact than gasoline-fueled models, making them easier to handle and operate.

Quieter operation. Fuel-fired chainsaws can be very loud. Battery models operate more quietly, making them a better choice for your neighborhood or noise-sensitive environments.

Less maintenance. Battery chainsaws have fewer moving parts, so they tend to require less maintenance. No more cleaning air filters or changing out spark plugs. Be sure to remove the battery before performing any maintenance on your chainsaw.

Cleaner and healthier. Battery-powered units produce zero emissions while you're using them. This contributes to a cleaner environment and a healthier you — no more breathing in smelly emissions.

Safer. Battery-powered chainsaws turn off instantly when your finger isn't on the switch. They typically aren't as powerful, so their potential for kickback is reduced. They also don't generate smoke.

Gas-fueled models do offer more cutting power for heavy-duty uses, and they may be a better choice for remote locations where recharging may not be readily available. For most outdoor uses, however, electric battery-powered chainsaws are the perfect choice to power your yard care.
