This was a cool opportunity! Milwaukee has a great lineup. I love their big 1/2" impact. I was able to break the nuts loose in my 24 yr old Bush Hog to change the blades. I had tried and failed with my pneumatic impact.

@bioniclife That's awesome! I like their stuff too. My half inch impact gave up on me while I was taking the tires off of my dump truck 😬 I sent it in and they repaired it and sent it back all free of charge.

Hey Zach, nice coverage of some of the new Milwaukee stuff. I think Milwaukee is one of the better battery platforms out there, and seems most their tools for the most part are top notch also...

@zaccheus 28 күн бұрын

@MikeBrooks12550 Thanks! I think so too. They're definitely not the cheapest and not ever tool is the best, but they have a good warranty and seem to do pretty well overall.

I switched over to “packout” style boxes from rope bags a while ago for tree gear storage. I overall prefer boxes for their stack-ability/ organization. Just can’t leave them under the tree to play out rope, they don’t take a hit as well as bags…. Thanks for the vid Zach!

@zaccheus 28 күн бұрын

@ClimbingColt Ohhh, that's an excellent point. I did set up a lift stabilizer on a packout box once. It took it, but I don't think they would like impacts 😬

I also use packout heavily. Checkout the tool bags. Their 15” tool bag will fit 200’ of 11.7mm rope no problem and can take more of a beating than the boxes can.

Love Milwaukee batteries. Their drills are top-notch. Also, I think they have the best telescoping pole saw. I think Husqvarna has the best top handle saw. I've seen a video of climbing arborist using the pack out boxes, and it seems like it could be useful. Can't wait to see you put that big saw to the test

Really appreciate your insights into what you saw at pipeline especially regarding the M18 dual battery saw in particulr as I’m really curious if they made changes to their . Did they mention chainspeed? Ik the m18 top Handle 2826-20t was just under 50’/sec which was just a bit too slow for some the itty bitty smaller limbs ime that just made for a lot of chatter when making small cuts and especially when compared to the the other cordless top handle I have which is imo the best battery saw I’ve used and that’s dewalts new dccs674 60v 14” flexvolt top handle saw which has a chain speed of right near 75FPS & that ales for a huge improvement cutting smalls I mean it’s night and day, im just really hoping they were able to rectify the issue with the m18 chainsaws sending batteries to early graves. I killed 3 8ah packs in one day when I first got 2826, I was just was doggin in back to back cuts and it actually burned out the bms chip on 2 of em and another common one is a pack that only charges to 3bars. That is generally that one of the middle banks of cells getting out of balance and is easy to fix. I use a flex 24v stacked lithium battery pack in my 2826and a 3dlow pro adapter and I haven’t had a battery overheat or issue since chainspeed from the 50ft/sec on 2826 and idk about the 2727.

@zaccheus 22 күн бұрын

@Jeff-rk8hq I don't know the chain speed off of the top of my head, but they do list it on their website. I prefer the slower chain speed for chugging through big cuts. But the chain isn't made for that slower speed. I think we need more chain options. I think it wpukd do better with full chisel

@robertvannicolo4435 28 күн бұрын

Zach looks like you made it being invited to shows through your channel. As for the electric saws, yes, they work great , but the cost of a 12amp battery around 250ish would need 4 min and cost of saw and a way to charge on jobsite. Plus a new set of chaps rated for electric saws. Very cool though how far battery technology has come in the last 10 years

@zaccheus 28 күн бұрын

@robertvannicolo4435 Yeah I did! They invited me after seeing the channel. It was a real blessing. I'm not familiar with there being a different PPE rating for electric saws, can you tell me more? Also keep in mind that this saw comes with a 5 year warranty. I don't know of anyone else that does that.

@robertvannicolo4435 27 күн бұрын

Zach, from what I have read electric chainsaws don't have drive sprocket which makes a difference just look up electric chainsaw chaps

@zaccheus 27 күн бұрын

@robertvannicolo4435 I watched some videos on it, and I did see one corded saw that was not quickly stopped by chaps. Every battery saw that was tested did stop. However they stopped so fast that the didn't bind up enough fibers to keep them from starting again. So there are definitely some different characteristics there. Also I saw that many chaps exclude protection from electric saw in their attached literature.

@julianalderson3938 I did talk to the project manager about giving us more bar and chain options for the milwaukee top handle saw. The big saw here had a standard kerf .325 chain on it, so there should be some other chain options in the category. Quarter pitch wouldn't survive well on this saw and I don't thinknit wpuod do well on the top handle either. They both make too much torque. All their bars are oregon bars with a sprocket tip. I agree though, it would be nice to have some options.
