I was pretty concerned that a battery powered tool for this job might not cut the mustard. I bought the light model with aim to reducing body fatigue and bough a second battery with a high capacity. Very pleased with it so far and battery charge levels are sufficient to compete several jobs before needing a recharge.

I'm converted, and this is from someone who loves two stroke POWER.

(Oh, I totally know that feeling when you run out of things to chop down)
This is impressive too from Stihl ..
