Black & Decker NPT318 18-Volt Cordless Electric Pole Hedge Trimmer

Designed for trimming shrubs and hedges with a height of 10 feet, this cordless electric pole hedge trimmer gets its power from one 18-volt NiCad battery (included, along with compatible charger) and helps you cut even hard-to-access pieces that most trimmers can't reach. The NPT318 features two interlocking sections that combine to create an extended pole measuring 78 inches, and a pre-hardened, machined steel, 18-inch, dual action cutting blade that won't create excessive vibration. There's also a 180-degree pivoting head that can be placed in five different positions to accommodate varying hedge sizes measuring up to 7/16-inch in diameter. To help you get more done in less time, the battery supplies 2,400 RPM and keeps the NPT318 going strong for up to 50 minutes on each charge. It also starts up with just a touch of the trigger, and a locking switch protects against unintended start-ups.

Poulan Pro PP4218AVX 18-Inch 42cc 2-Cycle Gas-Powered Anti-Vibration Chain Saw with Case

• Anti-vibration handle improves comfort and safety
• Includes 18-inch guide bar
• The reverse sprocket provides easy tool-less chain replacement
• Automatic oiling system lubricates the bar and chain continually during use
• Non-CARB Compliant/Not For Sale In California

I got the Poulman Wild Thing saw for $ 149 at big box retailer. For starters I thought it was OK. It did feel Very light, and it seemed to start easily the first time (about 10pulls). After about 15min of use (cutting scrap highway bridge rail supports) it suddenly bogged down and died. I tried for 1 2 and hour to get again it to start to no avail. The engine's run characterstics seem to change drastically as the engine heats up. Perhaps they used too much aluminum in its construction, or perhaps the carb was mal adapted. You can not adjust the carb's settings so you 're stuck with that. My guess is that it's a Chinese import. The pattern repeated the next day (starts, runs for a while, and dies) except that after about an hour of cool down, I last of all got it to start and run for about another 5min before it died again. I contacted Poulan support, they gave some suggestions, none of them helped. At long last I returned it and upgraded to a Poulan Pro 18" 42cc for another $ 20 ($ 169). This machine is unbelievably better! I cut 5 times the wood in 1hour than I was able to cut in 3days with the "wild thing".

The Poulman Pro has many features that are better than the Wild Thing

• it does not leak oil everywhere when you sit it down like the wild thing
• Padded grips on the starter rope , not that that that matters much since it starts in 3 pulls!
• better chain adjustment (no tools required)
• heavier construction and smoother running. It's own weight is all I applied to cut through the rail posts in < 10 seconds.
• Cuts much better/faster than wild-thing (even though the dispacement is only 2cc more)
• Idles well without dying (wild-thing had to be 'petted' to keep it going, I didn't even realize that wasn't normal.)
• Mine came with a free extra chain! (that's almost worth the extra $20 right there)
• Springs between body of machine and handle to reduce vibration.

In summary, the Puolman Pro is a any benefit machine and gets more done, is well heeled to start and use and seems to use less fuel too all for $ 20 more. It also feels like a more solid machine and aggresively tears through wood without staggering. I 'm willing to completely cross cut through heavy 8" logs at 3 4 throttle, using full only occsionally as I hit knots and such. Don't use the Wild Thing! It's a POC and sure to get you laughed at if you try to use it for any good work! .

If you do n't know how to start a chainsaw than you should not be using one! Once the saw fires you turn the choke off and pull the start cord. If you keep trying to start it with the choke on it will flood the engine. Read the user's manual, it talks about it in the manual. I just purchased the 450 and it cuts like a dream and has the power to really do the trick. I like the fact that I can put a 20" bar on this saw and have the power to get the job done. I 'm not having any issues getting the saw to run even in below freezing temps. Make sure you use winter grade bar oil if you cut in the winter. It's only been two days of solid cutting but this machine has out preformed my last saw. Hopefully with good maintenance habits I can keep this thing around for a long time. Oh yea... wear chaps and a helmet. I love that macho attitude with no protective gear. You'd be amazed at how fast you can bleed out when you hit an artery! .

Black & Decker LP1000 Alligator Lopper 4.5 amp Electric Chain Saw

Take a big bite out of fallen trees, tree limbs and brush with the Alligator Lopper, a revolutionary new cutting tool that provides chainsaw-like cutting performance in an un-intimidating and easy to use tool. With its scissor-like action, the Alligator Lopper’s rugged metal jaws clamp onto logs and thick branches, as well as smaller tree limbs and vines and then saws through them with ease. Once limbs and branches are on the ground, the Alligator Lopper is perfect for chopping them up into manageable pieces to throw away or into your fireplace. The Alligator Lopper is ideal for tree pruning, clearing brush, storm clean-up, cutting firewood and more, and is a great alternative to chainsaws, manual loppers, handsaws and clippers. The Alligator Lopper’s jaws offer the ultimate in controlled cutting. The rugged metal guards that cover the jaws protect you from the cutting chain and immediately snap back over the blades once the cut is complete. The Alligator Lopper’s jaws also mean it does not skip around like chainsaws when starting to cut. The Alligator Lopper cuts side-to-side instead of from top to bottom as with traditional chainsaws. This sideways cutting prevents burying the cutting chain in the dirt as the chain cuts though, which can quickly dull a regular chainsaw. The Alligator Lopper also makes it much faster and easier to cut logs since you don’t have to prop them up on saw horses or other logs. Just grab them in the Alligator Lopper’s jaws and cut right through. The Alligator Lopper’s auto chain tensioning keeps it in top cutting form. Just loosen the bar retainer bolts with the included wrench and the bar automatically takes out the slack and adjusts the chain’s tension perfectly.

• Powerful 4.5 Amp motor


• Innovative clamping jaws grab and cut in one easy motion


• Cuts branches and logs up to four inches in diameter


• Six inch bar length; weighs 6-1/2 pounds


• limited 2-year warranty
