I have two, both Dewalt. One is the 12" 20V and the other is the 16" 60V.
I also have a Stihl MS250. I would say the 60V dewalt is pretty much equal
to the power of my Stihl. The 20V one is good for light limbing and such,
but not really on par with a gas saw. Dewalt announced a more powerful 60v
saw this year with a 20" bar, but I have not been able to actually find
them for sale anywhere yet. I went with the dewalt because I have a bunch
of their batteries and tools. Otherwise I probably would have gone with
the Stihl, just because I trust the brand and have heard a lot of positive
things about their battery powered saws.
