How long will battery last using a pole chain saw non stop?

I am not sure what a "pole" chain saw is. I use mine for a trimmers and it lasts about 2 hours. Hope this helps.

I have a pole saw which has a Remington chainsaw virtually identical to this one on it. Since the poll has the controls on the lower part of the pole I would highly advise buying the saw on the pole. It is easily detached from the pole if you want to use it is just a chainsaw. However, I bought this saw so that I would not have to bother with detaching the one from the pole.

At least 20 minutes. It seems Greenworks has figured out the battery thing. I had a Roybi 18V and its run time was 10 - 15 minutes. This runs much stronger and longer.

hello Brittanyi'm a licensed electrician and i use this little saw alot. i know the batteries are expensive but i would only use a battery of the same voltage and the same type battery with any cordless tool. it may harm or ruin the motor that runs the saw.

It depends on the speed you use. The faster the speed, the shorter the battery life. We typically run the weed eater on medium and it lasts about an hour. We ended up buying an extra battery since we have nearly an acre of land and with a fence there is even more trimming to be done. We love this trimmer though and purchasing the extra battery was a wise decision for us so we can always finish all the trimming without having to wait for a battery to charge.

Each device requires a different amount of current. The chain saw requires the most, one full charged battery will last about 20 minutes cutting 2" diameter soft wood. Grass clippers about 45 minutes. But don't cut heavy grass very well. Hedge clippers I have not used. Chain saw is good for small quick trimming.

Try using the low speed setting. My battery last for four cuttings each 15 minutes run time.

Mine worked for about 20 to 30 minutes cutting wood. But I'm using regular batteries. I will probably buy a couple XRP batteries for this for hopefully extended life. I'm just using this for DIY purposes.

I haven't timed it but it holds a charge for at least 2 hours of constant trimming I use it to cut my whole front & back yard grass & trim the edges twice before recharging hope that helps :)

I have found that they last for about 20 - 30 minutes of continuous use. I don't have a very large yard and I can get the trimming and most of the edging done with 1 and 1/2 battery charges. It's good to have 2 batteries charged at a time .

Manual states it could take up to 5-8hours to charge the battery. Also I don't like to totally discharge the battery since it reduces the useful life dramatically. Also have two batteries with both fully charged before I start trimming (had them from some other BD tools). After trimming all my bushes, perhaps 30-45 min of trimming, it took less then 2 hours to fully charge the battery. Tool is efficient cutter even on thicker branches and really cut down my time compared to my previous corded tool. Although I have it on reserve I have never used the second battery. Although a quick charger is available, I cannot justify the cost. Manual states it could take up to 5-8hours to charge the battery.

I have never run my unit all the way down. After initial charge, it was never more than an hour. This is a VERY good saw!

I have both, and I use them on a chainsaw and a cultivator. The 2AH can go up to 20 minutes of hard continuous use on either machine, and, obviously, the 4AH can double that time. But it's almost double the weight, too, so if you're going to do a lot of overhead limbing with the chainsaw, the lighter battery is the better choice. I am glad I have both.

14-15 total. W/four yr warranty & I'll use saw w/o the pole most of the time [a well built fully usable saw w/sturdy handle, etc.]. Earthwise pole saw is lighter [http://ecoyardpower.com/reviews/pole-saws/] but is not usable off the pole... Bill

The pole saw that I purchased came with a 20 volt battery. I later purchased a 40 volt battery to use as a spare, and it works just fine with my saw.

I'm sorry that I didn't keep good records and can't give you a good answer but I thought that something that small would have a battery life of weeks but it was more like days. My situation is not optimum for distance and intervening brush but it is not working at all for me. Good luck!

the first charge is overnight, after that the recharges are 3-4 hours. usage depends on the equipment being used. My 20v Hedge Trimmer lasts for an hour of cutting time. My 18v weedeater lasts for about 30-45 minutes depending on what I'm doing with it. My 18v pole saw lasts about 35-45 minutes.
