- Опубліковано 8 вер 2024
- We get our hands on the brand new 2024 Milwaukee Twin Battery Chainsaw. Is it as good as they say? We unbox and get it assembled and make our first cuts with it. What do we think? What other saws would you like us to compare this chainsaw to? Stihl? Husqvarna? Ego? #chainsaws #chainsaw #milwaukeetools #milwaukee #milwaukeepowertools #milwaukeeope #professional #stihl #husqvarna #egopowerplus #batterypowered

I believe you should put it up against classes of petrol chainsaws, like 50 and 60cc to see what it matches
Great idea! Is there a particular brand you would like to see
@@MachineryNationstihl
@@MachineryNation husqvarna
@@MachineryNation do it.. we are waiting for it eagerly against stihl
Husqvarna 562xp, please!
Please compare it to the big new ego. Interested also in running time.
Thanks for the comment. Hoping to bring several videos on this saw, including run times. We have the EGO CSX5000 so its our plan to put it up against this model 👍👍
Put it against best battery saws from dewalt, makita, husqvarna, and Stihl please.
Good idea thankyou. We might be able to compile a range of the most powerful and bring this to you later in the year 👍
Greenworks 82CS34 with at least a 5ah battery. The Ego CSX5000 has slightly more power than the Greenworks, but it overheats quickly.
I would like to see how many quick cuts in hardwood are possible on high power setting. How fast do the forge batteries overheat and give in?
Against Makita 40V. There are two currently on the market (not top handle), one 18" and a newer one 16".
Morning, thats a great idea. we have never featured any 40v makita products on the channel. we shall see what we can do! Perhaps there could be a range comparison video later in the autumn and get all the big ones together!
No match .. Milwaukee is really powerfull.
definitely improvements over the first one they made. i hate trying to get the tool out to adjust the saw. i usually just grab it off of my hand aw since its such a pain in the ass. also captives nuts are nice too
YES! Put it up against the EGO CSX5000 and the CS2000!
Thats just going right through. Very impresssive! Just a shame the batteries are so expensive :/
Against other battery saws dewalt makita husqy sthil
Hi Andi we shall see what we can do! If we can get all the most powerful cordless saws together we will certainly make a video as there seems to be alot of interest in this. Cheers
Don't forget echo. I have their battery saw and love it
Looks like a good saw for the right application but i don't think I'll be replacing my 362 or 461 with one anytime soon. Certainly not my 661. I do have a milwaukee hatchet that I like though.
.325 pitch , 1.3mm ( 050" ) gauge . How did it feel weight wise to a comparable 2 stroke with those two large batteries ?
Hi Gordon, it has a nice feel to it and prity well balanced. I think we will have to do some proper work with it so we can see the true usability. We will also put this up against some 2 stroke versions at somepoint so viewers can get a real comparison of the two. Thanks for watching.
obv all of the brands, but def the electric stihl 300 and a 70cc stihl
Hi Alan, we shall see what we can do. Im sure the next videos we bring you all will throw up some interesting results!
Could you put it up against some of the stihl battery saws
Hey Aaron, thanks for your comment 😊 Is there a particular STIHL model you would be interested in seeing it against?
Saw looks a beast look forward to seeing future content with it.
Crackin’ good video, James! All good comments and suggestions in here.
These poorly designed ‘safety releases’ obviously conjured up by someone that does not use them! And Milwaukee CAN do better! I have an older corded angle grinder, with one of the best paddle switches of any grinder. My M18 Fuel grinder paddle switch not quite as good. Come on Milwaukee !!!!
At the end of the day, whilst some of these saws can actually keep up or even beat a petrol powered saw, there is still no viable substitute for a proper gas saw! Taking extra batteries out in the woods, and in this case, many extra as it is dual battery design, is just impractical and inconvenient! Battery Tech will get there soon, but I don't think it is quite there yet? Close, very close, but not quite. 😊👍✌
While I'm sure the petrol saws will match or probably exceed the battery platform, IMO the battery platforms excel at several points: less maintenance, no fuel cans, lighter weight and (perhaps most important) quieter. In my experience, being able to hear what's around you while you're felling or processing trees is a critical safety element. To that end, I will take a battery saw every time. And with this new beast of a saw, I think Milwaukee is definitely aiming for my business.
Good Morning Sandy, thanks for your comments. We most certainly agree with all your points! Let us know if you pick one up at somepoint and how you get on with it 😊
I have the AU modle top handle M18 and the safety switch is a fair bit longer than the ones on your perhass it is a UK safety switch thing
Hi Alan, thats interesting to know thanks
Hi James try the saw up against the rival Makita many thanks
Hi Kevin, its certainly something we will look into for you. I believe Makita now have a 40V offering?
alot of these companys like sthil etc need to review there locking systems makem more user friendly and comfortable to use
Hi Russell thats very true. I think they are governed very heavily by current health and safety laws. To be sold in the EU they must have a 3 stage trigger or safety assembly i believe. There has got be easier ways of designing such a system though
@@MachineryNation just feel sometimes can contribute to accidents
372XP vs Milwaukee would be a great battle.
Old classic vs the new! Love that idea Stuart. Josh has a fairly new 372XP so we might be able to sort something there. Watch this space 💪
Test it against the CSX5000.
Hi Mark, great idea, its on the list! It will be an interesting comparison. I think also to see which lasts the longest aswell
@@MachineryNation Cool. Make sure both have chains which are sharp! I got the CSX5000 which is pretty good...
Hi James, bit of a battery weapon, cutting that trunk no problem, yeh.... bring on the challengers compere to the other makes. Great review catch you soon, Take care
Thanks for watching Shaun 👍👍
Should we compare with the Ego CSX5000 and the Stihl MSA300?
Hi Jean, we will most certainly try and get both saws and compare them against the milwaukee
If that power rating is to be believed, that's drawing the best part of 120A out of each of the batteries. That's a lot.
An 8Ah battery would last (in an ideal world) 4 minutes doing that :D
Hi Tom, i think a run time video might be in the making shortly 😉
@@MachineryNation I assume (and you know what they say about that) that it's not running flat out the whole time. That would be silly.
Looks impressive. Can I ask, is there a noticeable difference between the heavy duty batteries and the forge batteries, and are they worth buying? I currently have two 8.o high output batteries which came with the brushcutter. I'd like a longer run time, but not at the cost of a small car!😂
unless brushcutter feels underpowered with your 8Ah, no point of upgrading to forge, just regular 12Ah will do and it cost below £200
Morning, thanks for your comment. I must admit we havent tried the standard batteries in the saw yet, although we will be producing a video on forge vs STD to see what the real difference is. Watch this space. Thanks for watching 😊
@@MachineryNation Torque Test Channel has found some weird behaviour with Forge batteries on some M18 tools, would also appreciate testing normal batteries to see if it would still stall out so easily on the other one of the settings
Husqvarna t542ixp(14" top handle version with clutch) VS 14" Milwaukee top handle electric saw
good video we will try and bring you this later in the year
I have serious doubts that this saw is as powerful as a Husqvarna 372xp. It is a nice battery saw for the average homeowner though!
Funny you say that. Josh has a 372XP so we might well bring you a video racing the two!
Even if it can keep up, it won't be long until it overheats.
Compared to the old original rear handle that's what I wanted to know. What do you think)
Do a 3 way challenge against the next best electric (cordless), then against it's claimed comparable petrol saw, cutting rings against the clock 😊😊
Like it! Speed testing! Would you like to see run times vs speed as well? Cheers
@@MachineryNation most definitely
Bosch is coming out with their new Cordless Chainsaw from September, are you going to get it to put it up against this New Milwaukee when it releases? Great Video, much respect, sir
Hiya,..please put the saw against the new ego chainsaw up.
Greetings from Slovenia 🇸🇮
Thanks for watching. we have the new CSX5000 here so its one in the pipe line to film. thanks
@@MachineryNation and they also like Milwaukee say it's the most powerful 😀...and maybe you also put the new Husqvarna with the clutch to the test.
I’m going to go a different direction and ask if y’all can test those new 8ah Forge batteries against the old 12ah HO batteries in the mower…lol! Is that gray colored piece in the front of the saw metal or plastic?
Thanks for the idea. We shall see what we can do for you. Certainly a video we will be making is forge vs STD to see the what the differences are. The grey bit on the front of the saw does appear to be plastic.
Put it AGAINST the DEWALT XR FLEX VOLT TOP HANDLE
Interesting! Maybe Milwaukee might bring out another top handle saw at somepoint. Do you know what the dewalt is equivalent to in petrol power?
Definitely ego scx5000
Hi Ben, its in the pipe line. We shall try and get this filmed asap. Cheers
Please can you help me want to know what grease for a petrol Strummer hend
Hi, several brands produce strimmer grease. We personally use STIHL's version the Superlub FS. The part number (07811201117) for an 80g tube if you are interested.
372xp vs Milwaukee 🤜🏻🤛🏻
Hi Stuart, weve had alot of comments wanting the 372XP vs Milwaukee battle. Josh has one so we should be on to film this very shortly. Cheers
Man I love battery tools and the battery chainsaws are cool but that’s just one tools that will never be better than gas. Even if they do eventually become better id still choose an old husky
You should put it up against a stihl 500i
Morning, now that would make an awesome video. We shall see what we can do!
@@MachineryNationif you need to borrow any saws, please let me know, I have quite the collection these days 😂
up against the sthil msa 300 my vote .
Hi Chris, its one of the saws on the list to try and aqcuire. It would certainly be interesting. Thanks again
My new frend. I can say is great, thank you for connecting, always supporting you❤❤
Beast 😊
Certainly is Richard. More content to come on this very soon
Give it ago next to a husqvarna 540i xp 👍
Hi Nev, i think we have a 540i xp here so we shall see what we can do. Thanks for watching 😊
542ixp
Would love to see this up against Makita 40v chainsaw, and the Stihl 220 (which I've used extensively professionally and absolutely love)
It's about the same as a stihl 261cm I think. I saw you buried 17 inch through a knot. That's pretty impressive for battery. It's not realistic to expect it to compete with a 70cc petrol but I can see that its inevitable that this will happen eventually.
MS-261 and husky 550 MKII. For 60cc class go with the husky 562 MKII. For 70cc the Stihl 462 and Husky 572. The 500i though it’s still in the 70 class is 78cc so not really fair.
👍
Pls test it against the Husky 540iXP or 542iXP
Hello Tobias, thanks for the message. that would be an interesting match up, we shall see what we can do
put it up against the petrol equivalents from other brands
Hi Russell we will defiently be doing this. Any particular brand or model? thanks
@@MachineryNation husquavarna the simaler petrol powerand sthil
Ego CSX5007 and Dewalt DCCS677 with the 5AH 60V battery.
Ego 20" commercial
Got one lined up ready to go against the might Milwaukee 💪 Thanks for watching
Interesting what's the cost ? I'm guessing 4 of those batteries are 8 to 900 alone.
Great Video! How long does it take to recharge the battery?
Are the chains custom or does Oregon already have them for sale?
That chain was very tight and when you tighten the nuts it gets even tighter
@@allgood6535 chain was perfect tension 👍🏼
@@MachineryNation it was very tight before you tightened the casing so in my experience it would be bit to tight
@@allgood6535 tightening the nuts does not tension the chain. This is solely accomplished but the tension screw 👍🏼
@@MachineryNation ok try it for yourself I’ve been in this industry for 20+ years tension the chain feel the tension then tighten the nuts and feel it it adds at least 20% more tension facts.
Put it up against Echo 56V 18” bar and chain chainsaw.
echo 7310 be good one
Be great to see it against a stihl ms261
Put it against Ego.
Will do 👍🏼
Defo a 60cc husky and the battery husky.
Any particular husky petrol you would like to see against it?
@MachineryNation I'd love to see it against a 550xp mk2, because that's my saw. The new 60 might be a more interesting test tho...
Test it with 2x 5.0 batt. Everyone has those
Вы от Senix не пробовали она ваще мощь CSX6-M1-EU SENIX.
DeWalt 54v
It would be good if we can get a few of the newer larger battery offerings together and do a comparison video. thanks for the message
Against the Stihl msa 300
Thanks for your comment. We will certainly try and get a STIHL to do a speed and run time test against
how many cuts with one charg
Hi Tom, next video we will delve deeper into run times and power against petrol competitors
Sthil please
Thanks for commenting we shall certainly have this machine up against a STIHL product at somepoint for you guys
@@MachineryNation thanks
is this Milwaukee finally admiting there might be voltages beyond 18?!
Intersting thought! Obviously the MX range is on a large 72V battery
Chainsaw mill it should make for a good video or a laugh at least
Hahah perhaps mill some of that smaller oak we have left to cut up. I cant say ive seen many people use a cordless chainsaw on a mill, but it could be a first. Thanks for watching!
Put it against that new EGO saw.
Greenworks 60 volt
Stihl would wipe the floor with this
More videos to come, speed tests, run times etc. i think it will make for some interesting viewing. Cheers
What a keyboard warrior…we have 2 16” Milwaukee saws and the my absolute outperform a comparable size commercial stihl
Tienen entrega a Guatemala
Im sure there will be a milwaukee distributor in your area 👍 You might find it is easier to purchase from an American retail store when they come available
Yeah no way 🤣 shits fawking hilarious…
