There are critical issues to consider when deciding to purchase an electric or gas powered chainsaw. Gas saws have the major advantage of not needing to be plugged in. In remote locations this is a major and possibly deciding factor. Even if electrical power is available nearby, the power requirements limit the length of the electoral extension cord to about 100 feet with a max of 150 feet. The advantages to an electric saw are less pollution, noise and the convenience of not needing to purchase, store and refill with gas. In addition there are cordless electric model that provide mobility and ease of use.
