We compare the brand new STIHL MSA 300 battery chainsaw against the STIHL MS261C petrol chainsaw. Is this the end of petrol/gas chainsaws?
Watch this video to find out. The STIHL MSA 300 battery-powered chainsaw is the most powerful professional cordless chainsaw. Part of the STIHL AP System of battery tools, it has three power levels which let you adjust the chain speed of the chainsaw between 20, 24 or 30 m/s. So you can use it in the right way for whatever task you are doing, whether it’s felling, pruning or cutting to length, all whilst maximising the battery life. It also features an anti-vibration system and like all of our battery tools, it’s quieter than the petrol equivalent and easy to use. The LED display on the chainsaw makes it easy to monitor oil levels, check the status of the chain brake and the temperature of the cordless chainsaw too.
