She wants/needs a chainsaw. She always asks me to start them for her. I have 2 Stihls: MS 250 and a MS 290 both 18" blades. I love my Stihl saws.
But can be hard to start if the choke is not set right. They can be finicky.
Do I get her a small Stihl, or another brand, with the "easy start" saw or a battery operated one?
I am thinking that battery saw is only for cutting twigs. She wants to cut 2-4" stuff without me starting the thing.
I think she needs something light (she was a trooper today running the 290) that is
easy to start yet is powerful.
Again, not for 8-16" trees.
Ideas?

My wife asked for a chainsaw and I got her this:
She uses it quite often.

This sounds suspiciously like my wife wanting a new gun for Christmas.

I have 14-4 and 5a/h batteries I use at work also. If you have 3 you can go non-stop.
I managed to cut down some full grown 30ish' trees with this saw. Very carefully.

With Milwaukee you can use standard 18vt or their 18 HD (bad ass 18vt 12 Amp Hour) but what you do decides the output
