If this needs 2 batteries to operate, that's not ideal. If one goes bad or isn't charged you wouldn't be able to use your tool. Seems odd to need 2 of them to use the tool.
The integrated USB ports I see on the battery is a great idea though.
One thing to take notice of on the chainsaw is the tension nuts. On mine and others I have read, they can work themselves loose due to vibration. This looks like a similar design as the 80v and could be an issue too.
I'm pretty much done with gas tools unless it's needed for a larger job or endures greater stress on the machine.
My 16" cut down several trees this spring. Couple big ones I had to cut from both sides. Was surprised what my amateur self was able to accomplish. I had a couple misjudgements, but I was in the woods, so mistakes weren't gonna cause damage to property or anything.

I'd hop on one of the gas tillers deals from Home Depot. Depending on the size you plan to till up, but I'd use that over a battery one for sure if you have the need. I have a gas tiller adapter for my Husqvarna weed Wacker. But I wouldn't want to use that for something more than a couple rows. Just takes too long, especially if the ground is hard or not broken up already.
My chainsaw is underpowered and does not cut many logs before the battery runs out. I would not buy my chainsaw again.
But I can't pile up more middle of the road tools, and will spend a bit more to get the greenworks pro 80v with the 8 year costco warranty, the next time they go on deep discount or clearance. I scored the 80V blower at their ".97" priced clearance with a battery and charger end of last season for $180. Hoping the chainsaw does the same.

I recently bought a single family home and i have trees and plants on my property. I feel like I will be able to use chainsaw for something.. maybe more than for just trees and plants!
Thoughts?
Edit: the equipment i have uses 24 v 5.0Ah batteries. Will the batteries on this deal work with it?
