- Is an 8-inch mini chainsaw enough for tree work?
- It handles limbs and branches up to about 6 inches and light firewood. It is not meant for felling trees or cutting large trunks.
- How long do the two batteries last?
- Expect a few dozen small cuts per 4.0 Ah pack depending on wood hardness. Two packs usually cover a full pruning session.
- Does it use standard chains?
- It takes 8-inch replacement chains for its bar mount. Check the drive link count and pitch before buying spares.
- Do I need bar and chain oil?
- Yes. Fill the oil tank before each use and check it often, since the small reservoir empties quickly.
- Is it better than a corded electric chainsaw?
- It is far more portable and safer around branches, but a corded saw gives constant power for heavier cutting near an outlet.
- Where is the Kimo Mini Chainsaw Brushless 20 V Max 8" Kit cheapest?
- At Lowe's, for $79.99, as of our latest check.
