Over time, electric chainsaws have improved a lot. They have become more efficient and, in the same time, cheaper. Today, there are many Chinese made chainsaws, which are not only good alternatives to the expensive brands, but some of them are also compatible and operate with the batteries of famous brands, such as, Makita, DeWalt and Milwuakee.

This cordless electric chainsaw is not made by Makita, but it works with two 18-volt Makita batteries. I am using the biggest capacity Makita has to offer for the 18V LXT series, which is the 6Ah. The chainsaw is surprisingly good. It cuts through wood pretty fast and, thanks to the big capacities of the batteries, it cuts for a long time, before it stops.

I made a mistake while testing it and forgot to check the chain tension. As a result, the 16 inch chain escaped the bar and got bend. After that, it wasn’t fitting in the bar very well, so I had to buy a new chain. Since I couldn’t find the same chain size in my local store, and I didn’t want to wait, I bought a new bar along with a new chain. The new bar and chain are smaller, but this is actually beneficial, since the motor doesn’t stress that much and the batteries last longer.

The new chain is also sharper, which improves the wood cutting capabilities even more, as you will see in the video review. Using this battery powered cordless chainsaw, I managed to cut all of the wood for the winter, which is 12 m³ (3.31 cords) of beech wood.
