How does it compare with a gas chainsaw?

DeWalt rates it at up to 3.49 HP, comparable to a 50.2 cc gas saw, with more torque. It avoids fuel mixing, pull starts and exhaust, but it is heavier than many small gas saws and depends on charged batteries.

How long does the 4.0Ah battery last?

Runtime depends on wood and technique. Expect a limited number of large bucking cuts per charge, so a second FLEXVOLT battery is worth having for bigger jobs.

What is included in the kit?

The saw, a DCB612 FLEXVOLT 4.0Ah battery, a DCB115 charger, bar sheath, carrying case, sharpening file and tensioning tool.

Does it use DeWalt 20V batteries?

It runs on 60V MAX FLEXVOLT batteries. FLEXVOLT packs also work in many 20V MAX tools, but 20V MAX packs alone will not run this saw.

Is it good for felling trees?

It can fell small to medium trees and buck logs up to 18 inches. For frequent large-tree felling, a gas saw or a larger bar saw is usually the better fit.

How much does it weigh?

About 12.6 lbs with the battery, which is heavier than most compact cordless saws and close to a mid-size gas saw.
