Do any of you have experience with the HF Lynxx 40 volt pole saw?

4V Lithium Cordless Pole Saw

I’ve got an Echo pole saw that extends up to 16’ but, I’m thinking the HF saw would be good for branches just above the reach of a chain saw, and way lighter too.

Can you use the 20% coupons on the Lynxx tools and batteries?

Yeah, I bought one a couple of weeks ago. The stories about the batter life are apparently true. I cut limbs off of nine trees, and the level indicator still showed a full charge. I like it a lot.

Excellent! Thanks much.

You mentioned that Lynxx have their own coupons?

I have a chance to buy a used Echo pole saw from a friend that's like new and cheap. What do you think of it?

My use would be to trim some 1" to 1 3/4" bottom branches off of about 200 spruce trees and then sell it. Maybe 6 branches per tree and the pole would allow me to easily reach into the tree. Think it would hold up?

Echo has a 5yr. warranty for home owners. I think you'll be fine. After you get the limbs trimmed you'll probably change your mind about selling it!

Talking about "mugs".. I got an "Ozark Trails" one from WMart.. Holy Smokes does that thing keep things cold & hot.!!! I think it was $10.00.
419, I don't know if yours came w/ a handle?? but you can pickm up just about anywhere.. & the Yeti handle fits perfectly around it.
I have the BIG mug, 32oz I think, & the handle is VERY comfy to use. You can find them online for just a few bucks. {$3.00}
I had filled mine w/ ice & water at 3:00 break at work.. forgot it in the car at nite & came out the next morning & there was STILL ice in it..15hrs later.!!!

Yeah I was at HF and picked it up on a whim really. It fits well in my hand without a handle and fits in the cup holder on the tractor as well as in the car. Coffee hot a couple hours later is about all I need. I am not a full time tractor driver so after a couple hours I am basically done anyway. Also a couple hours of hot coffee at the work desk is all I need.

The YETI brand is waaaayyyy over priced.

What model is it? I’m very pleased with my PPT-266. I misstated it’s reach in my other post. It telescopes from 9’ to 12’. I can easily reach up to 16’ high branches though.

I’m looking at the HF pole trimmer because of lighter weight and will use for lower cuts that I can’t reach with my Echo chain saw.

I'm not sure. He paid around $500 from Home Depot.

Go check out a real Echo Dealer. In my experience Home Depot overprices their Echo Equipment.

ECHO - Outdoors - The Home Depot

Compare to Echo MSRP.
