I have two electric St
ihl saws, one battery (MSA 120 C) the other corded (MSE 140 C). Both work extremely well and are in constant use. I use the battery saw indoors and outside for small jobs. It has an excellent run time, is light weight and very convenient. It's veryhandy to grab and go. The corded saw is used mostly in the shop when I need it for larger pieces or extended cutting. Yes Stihl saws are expensive but my experience has been very positive. In addition, I have several gas Stihl saws for large projects - an 041 AV, purchased in 1976 is still going strong. One thing that took a little time to get used to with the electric saws is to remember to check the bar oil. Gas saws usually require topping off the bar oil with each gas fill so it's rare to run out of oil. It's hard to keep track of how much bar oil remains in your electric saw.
