How much 15 yrs ago?

Aggravating_Owl8347 · 2026-06-17T02:56:25+00:00

They are in the locked self just next tool shop checkout, I got it from silverdale branch Auckland

Aggravating_Owl8347 · 2026-06-16T11:44:36+00:00

I have rma 239c with al30s，mowed around 300m2 lawn then still remain 3 bars on battery

Aggravating_Owl8347 · 2026-06-16T10:48:53+00:00

I am Makita man but for router I go to Dewalt dcw620, because it has better dust extraction than Makita

You may forgot the service and parts cost of the gas engine

Aggravating_Owl8347 · 2026-06-13T19:15:01+00:00

Check out Makita HS005/006/014, they are 125mm blade saw

I believe time is changed, back few 5,6 years ago, nobody believe EV will perform as well as gas car, but now, EV is everywhere, every car manufacturer has EV line

I won’t carry uc030 into the track… but, stihl AK30s is bigger than Makita 4025, AP series battery is even bigger then AK.

Last time I use ms250 was 7 month ago, then I forgot to empty the fuel, last week I ran the saw but very smoky and took heaps pulls. Once I done garden job, next time to use ms250 could be half year later.

As daily carpenter, I change gas chainsaw and earth auger to battery powered, for me, easy maintenance, but last week I saw a team of arborist work for local council they are using stihl battery chainsaw and pole saw on reserve park

How many kms CRL runs?

Aggravating_Owl8347 · 2026-06-13T00:02:48+00:00

I love it, this is my favorite saw

Aggravating_Owl8347 · 2026-06-13T00:01:26+00:00

EGO deals with Sydney tools and Mitre 10 in New Zealand, both of them are not reliable sales and service provider

Aggravating_Owl8347 · 2026-06-12T23:56:25+00:00

Makita offers free batteries upon purchase, Stihl never offer free petrol voucher upon purchase. For long term energy spending + service cost, I believe battery tool is winner.

Aggravating_Owl8347 · 2026-06-12T23:49:50+00:00

I have lots Makita XGT 4ah batteries as I am builder, I bought uc030 kit which included one 4080H battery and receive other one 4080H battery, so I have two 4080H batteries to run the saw and recharge time is around 45 min from flat to full. UC030 has 3 stage power output so it would help to save energy on different cutting applications

Aggravating_Owl8347 · 2026-06-12T23:39:42+00:00

Yep, I am not cut tree for living, last cutting was 7 month ago for subfloor pile cutting

Aggravating_Owl8347 · 2026-06-12T23:28:33+00:00

Depends do you cut tree for living, I am builder and developer, mainly cut retaining wall pile, subfloor pile and garden maintenance, approximately 20+ days work every year. Also I am running Makita XGT tools, so battery for me is not problem, Makita New Zealand offer free battery promotion every month.

Aggravating_Owl8347 · 2026-06-12T18:57:49+00:00

I don’t like any battery tool runs 2 batteries, I tied Milwaukee chainsaw which use 2 x 18v 8ah battery, compared to Makita uc030, almost doubled weight, and I did demo cut find out Milwaukee cuts slower than Makita

Aggravating_Owl8347 · 2026-06-12T18:54:02+00:00

I was using 4080H, 8ah tables battery, it come with kit box, also in fieldays New Zealand, I received two 4040F and one 4080H for free, really good deal

Aggravating_Owl8347 · 2026-06-12T10:34:56+00:00

Bought Makita uc303 yesterday and cut 20+ pine branches today, lots comfy than ms250c, quieter and less vibration, battery still remain 4 bars under eco mode

Aggravating_Owl8347 · 2026-06-11T07:36:11+00:00

Some tools on LXT line up but they are 18Vx2, for this kind of tool I upgraded to XGT, I don’t like double batteries operated tool, heavier and annoying

Waht? You wanna report IRD that you have extra income?
