Some amazing kit available 😀

@@TheFullyChargedGardener any battery mowers with rollers yet?

@@hectorgrowsveg Not yet 😉

@@hectorgrowsveg Yes , battery powered roller mower "Swardman electra"

😀 Battery saws have come a long way.

@@TheFullyChargedGardener yeah bud, quite tasty cutting! I’m looking forward to having a go on the msa300😁👌👌👌

I have the 220 and the 161T and so far I am happy

Is a fast powerful saw to bad even the AP500 battery is not up to the saw. Using about 80% of the blade you may got 15 minutes cutting time if you go in full power mode, then the battery always got hot and it takes about 15 minutes just for the charger 500 to cool of the battery so it can charge back again.

​@@sirvozelo1Bar, not blade, 🙄

@@TheToolnut Yes you are right.

Thank you for watching 👍

Might have been out for 4 months but I still can't get hold of one. Stock seems limited as always

The MS500i has been out for 5 years and still can't get those either.

@d hamby fortunately I got one of those. Excellent piece of kit!

Released in which country? I contacted Stihl, who said they will not be available in US until summer/fall 2022

functionality. I not know what you try to say but I have the Stihl MSA300, 220C, 161T, GTA26 and the Trimmer135, I do everything I use to do with gas power and in my case I find it more convinient. Yes they sure have a down side witch is the batteries, I have all batteries from AP200 to AP500 just wishe they with hold on longer.

Quite an increase in the expected overall lifespan of the new AP500 battery. 😀

@@TheFullyChargedGardener everything just keeps getting better. 😃

How much better, or otherwise, is this compared to the MSA 220 C-B?

I havê the stihl 161T (a work horse) i aldo havê the 220c and the trimmer 135, i havê the ap200, ap300, ap300s and the 500s, it be litle more expensive but maybe better invest in 2, ap300s then one 500s. I have used the 500s in the trimmer and do not let me with much confidense over the 300s, taking the price cost.

I just buy it I havê not fully testes yet, but for the few cuts i did is defenetly mor powerful then the 220.

Cool. These battery saws are really useful bits of kit. Thank you for watching.

Amazing how much torque it has. The technology has come a long way - very cool 😀

It really is. what really impressed me, was the amount of torque the motor has. thank you for watching.

The MSA 220 T and MSA 220 TC-O are STIHL’s most powerful cordless top handled chainsaws, designed for tree care professionals to remove larger branches or perform crown maintenance with ease. Recommended with a light-weight 14” guide bar, both MSA 220 T models use a high performing PS3 full-chisel saw chain to achieve a fast, high-quality cut. The recommended AP 300 S battery delivers 2.1 kW of electrical power, providing up to 29 minutes of working time and plenty of power for cutting larger sized branches. Both models have an adjustable oil pump, an ergonomic trigger system and a 180° LED display, ensuring the operator always has a clear overview of key information such as the operating status of the saw and the chain brake position. In addition to these features, the MSA 220 TC-O also has an oil sensor that will notify the user when the chain oil tank is empty, helping to reduce potential downtime, premature wear to the cutting attachment and the risk of overheating. The MSA 220 T and TC-O top handle chainsaws are built with durability in mind and are suitable for use in the toughest conditions thanks to the hard-wearing components. Maintenance of the machine is kept simple via the MSA 220 T’s modular design, allowing housing parts to be removed and replaced quickly and simply. Other features include side-mounted chain tensioning, captive nut on the sprocket cover and tool-free oil tank cap as standard. In addition, the MSA 220 T boasts an easy-to-clean air filter for long service life and optimum motor cooling.

I have the msa140 ..it'll do over a cord with 2 batterys

I have ordered one of these saws. once I have it, I will run some tests to see how much it can cut with one battery. Thank you for watching.

I can most definitely do that 👍

I have both the 220C and the MSA300, you can't compare, it be like comparing a Ford Fieasta with a Mustang GT.

Thank you for watching 👍

It has a lot more torque.

I have the 161T and the 220 I just got the msa300 last week and just did a few cuts on a quite large oak it defently have more power then the 220, I am just wandering how long the battery last. Also in full power you must have the AP500 I have also the AP300S but with this one it only work in Eco Mode.

8.8

Hi, It is 8.8Ah 337Wh. The battery also has the Stihl connected built in, so that you can monitor the battery via the app. thank you for watching.

🤣

Hi, I’m not sure of availability in the USA. Best to check with your local STIHL dealer. Thank you for watching.

The battery will last you about 10 years - a good investment

I am in Portugal and order mine from Holand, I pay 690 EUR. and 20 EUR. for she-ping, the batteries and charger I already have from the 220C, 161T and the 135 Trimmer. The AP500 I have 2 and buy themes in a stihl store next to me in Spain pay 410 EUR. EACH ONE.

You can cycle batteries, always have one on charge while the other is in use. lots of benefits to using battery machines... although saying that - I firkin love my 500i :) thank you for watching.

Amazing how quickly the technology is developing.

@@TheFullyChargedGardener yea it is crazy, I personally want a light sabre tho for logs, hedges, moaning neighbours at jobs etc😂

@@LewisgardenservicesLtd 🤣 Now that would be frikin AWESOME!

In certain applications Battery machines most definitely are the best option, for many reasons. The is most certainly pressure on the supply chain due to increased demand, but we also have to remember that there have been many events over the last couple of years that have also had an impact on the supply chain. As consumers, I think we are going to have to learn to be more patient and factor in longer lead times when considering our purchases.

@@TheFullyChargedGardener What concerns me most is supply and demand. Let's hope this doesn't push prices up, either through material cost or greed

Lots of equipment which at this point cannot be replaced by battery. Leaf blowers, lawn mowers, augers, tillers, log splitters to name a few.

hahah 2 stroke is defiantly not dead. when deciding between battery and 2 stroke ask yourself if in use the throttle is held flat out for long periods of time. If so then you need a 2 stroke. Battery is only suitable for intermittent operation. Like a Battery top handle climbing saw. Cut a branch then climb to next location cut a branch climb to next location.

Thank you for watching 👍

Maybe they'll get there someday but I don't many men are going to run out and get one....at least not yet.

@@nothanksbigbrother5679 Around the house we're just tired of mixing fuel, and hoping it will start after sitting 6 months. This is why electric is for me, and many others.

@@bae896 I have a small electric saw for around the house myself. It plugs into an outlet lol

Cordless is great for some tasks, especially infrequent use by home owners. Like most cordless tool manufacturers it takes a while to get it right. It took makita and the others a long time to make really good cordless tools. Stihl is still learning at the moment that's why each new tool is better than the last. its no so much that the new tool is fantastic is just that the previous one was not very good.

WHAT?!!! I CAN’T HEAR YOU!!!
