Cordless Chainsaw FAQ
How much is a battery operated chainsaw
A battery-operated chainsaw will cost anywhere from $300 to $3,000+, depending on the manufacturer, power and kit inclusions. For a good-quality battery-operated chainsaw for small, occasional jobs, you can expect to pay $300 to $500, while a chainsaw that can take on larger jobs and thicker materials will set you back around $600 to $3,000+
Makita battery chainsaws, Husqvana battery chainsaws, Milwaukee battery chainsaws and Dewalt battery chainsaws are some of the best on the market. Each manufacturer is known for different features, including designs to make it easy to carry up trees, lighter-weight designs, water-resistant construction, reversible bars, tension systems and more. The best chainsaw for you will depend on your budget and the jobs you’re aiming to complete.

How long does a battery chainsaw last
Battery chainsaws will last 3 to 5 years before needing a replacement, depending on:
- How the chainsaw and battery are stored
- How the battery is charged
- The environment being used
For instance, getting your chainsaw’s battery on charge before it fully depletes will help extend its life, as will taking it out and storing it in a clean, dry case.
A lithium battery-powered chainsaw will give you 1 to 2 hours of power on one charge. If you’re running the chainsaw on max power, you will typically get 1 hour, while running on less power will give you more life. Small battery chainsaws will give you less running time than a larger battery chainsaw, so if you will frequently be using your chainsaw for long periods of time, you may want to consider a larger model to up its battery size and power.
Does a cordless chainsaw work well?
With the right cordless chainsaw, you can take on any task. The two main types of cordless chainsaws are petrol and battery chainsaws. A petrol chainsaw is operated by petrol, and is solid, affordable and will run as long as they are fueled. They’re ideal for those who will be using their chainsaw long-term for work. On the other hand, a battery-operated chainsaw is light, easy to start, quiet, does not create fumes and will last as long as the battery has power, making them ideal if you’ll be transporting your chainsaw, climbing trees with it, and the like.
Whether you’re eyeing off a Makita cordless chainsaw or a cordless mini chainsaw, there is something to suit every budget and need. If you’re looking to make light work of chopping firewood or even to add to your arborist kit, it’s all about picking the right solution for your needs.
