Regardless of which brand of battery operated chainsaw, they have to be better than petrol due to how quiet they are, especially when camping.
Plus 1 for the Ryobi One+.I already had a bunch of the green tools and batteries so it made sense.I do have a light petrol Echo saw and a larger Husqvarna, but the electric ones are getting pretty good, leave no fuel smells in the car, and don't advertise your wood gathering through the whole valley.You could also consider a silky saw if it's for occasional use, no battery or fuel needs!-Dave.
