The first model being the Husqvarna battery top handle. The second is that little weenie Stihl.
I'm thinking about a new pruning saw....of which the noise is a little less conspicuous than the regular toppers like the 201 and 540.
In some of the more conservation minded areas I've been working lately, the noise of my 540 has seemingly been drawing a lot of negative attention. I'm feeling quite weary of having to explain my actions to neighbour's and passers by. It's not that I don't respect their concerns....more about the time it costs me. I use a hands when it's practical, but not if it's going to take too long.
I've used a 150. Good ergonomics, super light and reliable by all accounts. The 536 is heavier, but seems to have pretty good power and sounds more like a drill. With batteries and charger works out significantly more money to lash out also. I wouldn't consider either a take-down saw....but for pruning I quite like them both.
I'm sort of leaning towards the latter, but was just wondering if anyone has experience or an opinion on either or both. Thanks in advance
