Ryobi OCS1830 18 V 30 cm Bar ONE+ Cordless Brushless Chain Saw

In terms of design features, there are a few that stand out. Firstly, the 30cm Oregon bar and chain . Anyone that’s familiar with chainsaws will know that this is a sign of great quality. Oregon chainsaw parts are very high-performance and are known for lasting the years, so it’s great that this machine is fitted with them. I found this chainsaw to be extremely easy to use for a couple of reasons. Firstly – its weight. At around 3.5kg , even with the battery in, this chainsaw is exceptionally light, which makes it so convenient to manoeuvre. I was able to climb into huge piles of debris and use the chainsaw in very awkward angles, which allowed me to get the job done so much faster. The Ryobi OCS1830 falls short with the length of time it holds a charge for. It can take a while to cut through branches and firewood. I was impressed with its charging time – it only took about an hour, which is on par with the Makita batteries that I also tested. All of the other cordless chainsaw batteries I used took much longer to charge. As part of the Ryobi ONE+™ system of over 150 cordless tools for the home, garden, automotive, crafting and much more, the Ryobi 18V ONE+™ OCS1830 Cordless 30cm Brushless Chainsaw is perfect for cutting logs and branches, cutting firewood and so much more.Quieter than a petrol chainsaw, the 18V motor requires no maintenance, produces no emissions, and removes the need to store petrol. The mechanical and electrical chain brake ensures the chainsaw immediately stops running, if required, for improved user safety. As part of the Ryobi 18V ONE+™ system of over 200 cordless tools for the home, garden, automotive, crafting and much more, the Ryobi 18V ONE+™ RCS1830-140B Cordless 30cm Brushless Chainsaw is perfect for cutting logs and branches, cutting firewood and so much more.

The values shown are for reference purposes and may vary according to the workpiece materials and other operating conditions. Ryobi recommends using at least a 4.0aH battery with this 18V chainsaw. While it’ll work with smaller ONE+ batteries, your runtime wouldn’t be long enough to make it worth your while. So, since I had a fair bit of wood to get through, I went slightly larger with a 5.0aH battery.The battery life may or may not hold its full charge for you to finish the task at hand, depending on how much wood cutting you need to get through.
