Can confirm, the fuse on mine went out and it is a pain to access. Namely that you have to drill out 2 rivets on one of the end connectors and add rivets back when you re-assemble. While mine was apart, I just ran straight wire all the way through the rod and moved the fuse outside of the rod and tucked it inside the motor housing, right before it connects to the motor. I also used a standard 2-prong automotive fuse that I can pull out and replace if it blows again without having to rewire anything.

As far as the power is concerned, I have this one, the 18V with the auto oiler, and the 40V 10" (also has an auto oiler) and while the oiled ones run faster, this one is nearly as good and I don't have to carry oil with me. Plus I can put it inside my truck if it's raining, and it doesn't leak oil everywhere. I use it to chop down some pretty big, old/dry oak and cedar limbs on my ranch. It cuts through everything just fine.

Watched a lot of video tests. Seems ok if you respect its limitations. I did discover there is an inline 'barrel fuse" in the part (rod) that the pole saw it attached to. Seems to be the common problem if these die. Replacing the fuse can be done (soldering required) - but its hard to disassemble. Agree - for light use.

I made a YT video about replacing the fuse, it really is a stupid design, but after I replaced the fuse, the saw has been going strong for over a year since. It is definitely not underpowered. You aren't felling trees with it, it is used for trimming overhead branches. That being said, I have no issues cutting through the entire length of the blade.

This is the 18V regular (not brushless) version. They sell an 18V brushless and a 40V version of the pole saw. Some reviews say this version is underpowered. Probably takes longer and is best for soft wood and smaller branches.

Good plan. Will cross that bridge when/if I need too.. when yours blew a fuse were you stressing it? Or - just normal use = blown fuse? I hope I dont regret this - haha.

Great job on the video. Looks like you helped a lot of people per the comments. Looking forward to taming some trees in my yard.

I have the 18v pole saw. It does the work and I have used it a bunch. Super handy and who does not love a pole saw. I will say that when the extension is added, the pole bows to the point that it could be considered dangerous. I think it is an oversight in design.

Haha, it must be someone else's video you are referring to, mine didn't get any comments lol. I was wrong too, I guess I made the video just showing the problem. The next day though, after contemplating throwing the saw away, I decided to just solder the wire together. The fuse is only 30a, which will pop obviously if the saw binds up. The lithium batteries (not even sure if there are any more nimh still working in 2023) have all of the protection circuitry inside the actual batteries, so there is absolutely no reason to put that fuse there.

I have annihilated many trees with the 18v pole saw. Plenty of power for cutting big limbs, just not with the included 2ah battery. I would highly recommend this paired with a 14ft corona pole saw with razor blade. Or just the corona saw since it cuts through anything like butter.

Anyone know what brand makes the best 18-20v polesaw? Is the DeWalt one any good? I'm tied into that battery eco system.

Looks like a good deal. I will probably wait for the 40v version of both. 18v is great for all the hand tools but 40 is much better for yard stuff. Also, not a fan of Toolsdirect shipping.
