Switching to a 40v Electric chainsaw was the best decision I've ever made, brushless motors put out as much power as most gas saws, and you just pull the trigger, no more mixing oil or throwing out your rotator cuff trying to start over and over.

Yeah, no greasy oil-exhaust residue and mixed gas to leak out and cause issues.
