Black & Decker LCS1020 20V Max Lithium Ion Chainsaw, 10-Inch

Excelente equipo! Me ha servido mucho, he cortado troncos de hasta 30 cm de diámetro y sin problema recomiendo ampliamente

Black & Decker is a name in tools that I know and trust for making quality products. I was happy to see that they make this battery powered chainsaw. We have a gas chainsaw but like many others have noted, starting it takes more energy than using it. I really needed something easier and faster to use. We're mainly cutting Aspen and some pine for firewood.As soon as this came in the mail, I pulled out the battery and the charger and got it to cooking. It took about 5 hours as the booklet said to reach a full charge. During that time, I read through the instruction booklet and put the saw together. That didn't take more than a few minutes and requires absolutely no tools. I was impressed with the sturdiness of the saw. The saw is made of metal and plastic and is very light and well-balanced.I'm not a big, strong lumberjack, I'm a great-grandmother, so I'm not all that keen on chainsaws but doing a job without the right tool is just wrong. This is the right tool for me. I was able to cut a nice pile of logs up in the 20 minutes of operating time for the battery charge. I have a picture of my pile below.I like the weight and how easy it is to use the saw. I don't like the manual lube of the chain. It's annoying to have to push the little plunger after every cut or so to keep the chain lubed. I like that I feel safe while using the saw. It seems easy to keep it in control as it's not running anywhere near as fast as our gas chainsaw. I also like how easy it is to adjust the tension on the chain if I see it getting a little loose. I don't have to stop what I'm doing and pay attention to taking care of that.Bottom Line: The price was right and I'm happy with my purchase. If I could do it over knowing what I know now, I would probably opt for the 40V version with the automatic chain lube and a little more power but this will work for me for now.Day Two: I wanted to add a few thoughts after spending a second day with this little chainsaw "wannabe". Today we tacked a 50+ foot Aspen with approximately a 7 inch diameter. We won't be trying that again. The B&D cuts too slow for a job like this and in the end, the tree fell all wrong even with the right cuts. We again only had 20 minutes of cutting power and that was enough to down the tree and cut it into small enough sections to get on the sled to haul out of the woods. I used my gas powered chainsaw to finish the job of cutting it into firewood.This is a great little tool for having around the yard for cutting up limbs and fallen trees. It's sturdy, easy to use and well-designed (except for the manual lube on the chain). It's a step up from a hedge cutter and a step down from a gas chainsaw power-wise. Consider your needs and how you will be using this before you buy it.

Muy buena herramienta para trabajos cortos, cómoda, liviana, fácil de usar y de fácil mantenimiento

The saw is slightly rugged, easy to use, and it works very well on cutting thick dry wood. I love that it isnt noisy like its petrol powered cousins! I used corn oil in the lubricant tank and it works great, is cheap, readily available at the grocery store, and environmentally friendly. You need to know that this thing leaks like crazy so set it down on a piece of cardboard because it will leak oil! BTW, it's supposed to leak oil since the oil goes to the chain not the motor. The safety devices are good and read & follow the safety instructions, this thing will kick back on you and the chain will change your face if you let it. The battery works with other 20v tools from B&D but it is likely the first thing to break since the batteries ARE NOT RUGGED, so be careful to not crack the battery casing using this saw. It is an excellent tool for the residential once-in-a-while use by a dandy dad trying to clean up the yard. It has very good battery life but slows noticeably before powers out so be sure to have a charged battery to replace the one in the saw if you have a medium sized job to be done. No need to wear a flannel shirt while using this one but it does make it more fun.

El único inconveniente que le veo, es que solo incluye una batería, no tiene más baterías de repuesto se tienen que comprar por separado, además, el amperaje de la batería es muy bajo (2 amperes).
