SO the wife and I are doing a lot of camping, or more properly "Overlanding", which is just glamping with a 4WD truck. One of the issues I have run into is National Forests on the east coast don't like you bringing in firewood. You need to buy it there (not allowed to harvest your own in most places) and it tends to be sold in lengths that are too long for my portable fire pit. I have a Sven Saw, but it get's old sawing 15 logs in half by hand before starting a fire.
I think a battery powered little saw would be perfect. 8" bar would be more than enough for my logs, and I don't need *too* much battery run time. Enough to cut like 15-20 4-6" logs, then I can recharge it during the day on the inverter in the truck*
Has anyone used one of the cordless chainsaws? Brand or model recommendations? Am I expecting too much from a cheap tool? I'd be willing to spend $100-$150 on this, if it would work.
*Inverter on the truck is not powerful enough to run the plug in chainsaws I've found, Hence the cordless idea.
** My "real" cordless tools are DeWalt 20V, lithium and while one battery infrastructure is nice, I don't know that I am willing to pay for yellow plastic for this need. I'd want another battery for this tool anyway.
