MSA 300?
By: John Mc Date: November 22, 2022, 12:32 pm
---------------------------------------------------------
Has anyone heard much about the Stihl MSA 300 battery saw and
when it might be available in the US?
I've been seeing some interesting reviews on it. I'm not ready
to make a wholesale switch to battery saws, but this one looks
interesting enough that I might check it out. Stihl claims that
with their AP 500 S battery the saw is roughly equivalent to
their MS 261.

Thanks Cut4Fun. I have not been active on here in a while. I did
not even realize the Battery saw section existed. For some
reason, notifications about this thread were diverted to my spam
folder.

Thanks. Just sent a request to join.
I prefer forums such as this to FB groups for these kinds of
topics - it's much easier to find old posts or search on a topic
that interests me, but I thought I'd check out what is going on
in the FB group as well.

To me forums have been dead for years, not very many active
members on any if you check actual numbers. I just use this one
like a file cabinet now. Save the best info to for safe
keeping.
FB groups have a search engine too. I can search for threads all
the way back to 2013 when I started that group.
Just lot of folks dont like leaving their comfy safe spots.
I know I like the fast pace info for repairs there 10 to 1 over
a forum.

I'm, aware of the Facebook forum search function (I use it a
fair amount to find stuff for my antique truck n a model
specific group). A forum is just so much more organized - easy
to narrow in on a subject, or to browse in a specific area. As
you implied, it makes a better "file cabinet". It also seems
here is less "fluff": not as much unrelated stuff, and in a well
run one, people don't tend to drift off into the political BS.

20-40 minutes run time, and then after every 20-40 minutes it's
nearly an hour of down time to re-charge. That's not advancement
in my book. And unlike a pro petrol saw, if the motor goes- not
repairable economically, as a body only machine is cheaper than
a serious repair, so it's land fill.

I dont allow that BS anywhere. ;)
Take that stuff somewhere else IMO if they want to talk that.
We keep at least 5 batts ready to go and had as many as 7. But
gave a few to my son so he had more then 1.
For wives pole saw, chainsaw, trimmer, drill etc etc etc. Best
thing I ever did. Saves me alot of work following her around
with a gas saw etc. ;D
