Which Dewalt chainsaw do you have? I got the 60v version and it is
definitely better than any other small saw I have ever used, gas or
electric. It cuts quicker and easier tham my Stihl MS120. It will never
replace the MS250 for big jobs, but for limbing and bucking I like it a
lot.
I also have the 20v pole saw, and it is a little limited in terms of power,
it still gets the job done. One thing I have found is that the pole saw is
really sensitive to being dull. The first dozen or so cuts after I sharpen
the chain, it cuts great, after that it goes downhill pretty quick. Part
of that is the length of the chain, a shorter chain is always going to dull
quicker than a longer one, because each tooth comes around more often.
Part of it is the fine pitch of the chain.
