I think it's great. I remember as far back as 1997 thinking why can't they make this! I love working quietly with a handsaw on big prunes, this just extends that further. Hope it comes to Australia soon

Hope they will release this saw soon worldwide.
It is a real addition to every climbers toolbox !!!
In the time I run this saw and let colleagues work with it every one of them is very enthousiast about it and they all want one. It's high priced but def worth the investment.

Our machines are 220 volts. Can you live with that?
BTW. Last thing I heard they where out of stock because of the overwhelming demand.
Just keep harassing your supplier to get it over there. That might speed up things in Jönkoping Sweden.
I really hope they are already working on a double battery rear handle saw that has double the power to do the 20 inch work for me. I think the factory understands by now that there is a market for these petrol free saws.
I gave my saw to a colleague arb to give it a go for a couple of weeks and that's the moment that you realize that you miss the best part of working with the Lithium powered saws. The starting process... There isn't any, except for pressing a minuscule power button.

As a faithful user of Husky all of my professional life, this makes me happy! They can't get one here fast enough for me!

This would be the only battery powered top-handled arbo saw out right now, right?
Talked to local shop they had not heard of it yet.

No, but Husqvarna has degraded the Dolmar AS-3625 and Makita BUC250 to two dinosaur outdated ancient power tools.
Since I use the Husqy my Dolmar has not been out of my van.

Ha ha ha, I reckon this is the best monney can buy at the moment aye Wolter.
The saw gets better and better and the customers all are very surprised by it's force and silent action. The talk of the day at the local pub and some nice new customers for me

Id like to order one of these from Europe. Has anyone done this? What have been your solutions for the charger outlet, if you're in North America? Converter? I saw they have diferrent types of batteries (Bli-60, 110 or 160), what is everyone using? What is the difference? Capacity I guess.

BLi 110 3,0 Ah, 36 volt is what is used in the T536LiXP.
I guess it should work with a converter, but maybe contact husqvarna about it and see what they will say.
Would be great !

A few thoughts on this saw...
1) Hearing loss potential goes down which is great. Can you climb without hearing protection when using it?
2) Injury potential should be less. Many chainsaw injuries happen even after the trigger is released on gas powered saws. I'm assuming there's an electric brake on this one?
3) Could the lack of noise actually make an existing safety issue worse? A running chainsaw is an audible warning to anyone on the ground to be careful. Of course we should never solely rely on it. I'm thinking more of the customer who hangs around out of site in the yard, the nosey neighbor, or the curious kid we don't see.
Excited to try it out!

When operating the saw you must wear hearing protection ! The sawchain and sprocket makes a hell of a noise and on a normal two stroke chainsaw this noise is overruled by the engine noise.
There is indeed an electrical brake, but nevertheless you should engage the chainbrake when it's on standby to prevent it from running while picking it of the sawhook !
The noise a two stroke makes warns people, thats true. But bystanders can hear this as well but its way less noise from a little distance.
The silky has greater issues when thinking about branches falling without people around realising whats going on. Mark your working area and better look twice before you drop anything !
