@BruceMyersLBZ it's definitely got a few cuts under it. I've fooled around with a smaller saw doing a gasket delete and very mild porting to get some extra power, but I haven't messed with this yet because it starts and runs good. If it starts feeling weak, I'll probably try a couple mods.
@reusefull yeah, I threw together a burned up blue 372oe w a 65mm hyway kit n dual ported the muffler. I was/ am surprised how strong it runs! Pulls the shit out of 28" c83 buried in red oak. So far so good (30ish) tanks with some oem parts also thrown at it. Still running chinesium carburetor and holding its tune. point being a bigger hyway top end n muffler mod seems to run better than my lightly used but broken in 372XT. Don't snub the hyway kit if u find it's time for new top end, bang for the buck I'm highly impressed
@RickMartineau I have done run tests before, but I didn't on this one. I think it's generally known that a gas saw will get 3 or 4 times as many cuts on a tank as a cordless will get on a battery (with the same power). If you need to go hike into the woods without a machine, battery saws are probably not for you. Different tools fill different needs.
I wonder if there's a way to put a kind of sleeve style gear to run the 3/8 chain instead of having to machine it. even with it slightly bigger it would only increase the chain speed a little and since it has the torque to keep up could probably handle it.
Couple of questions, how many batteries would you need for a full day's work, with no charge points? And , if something goes wrong with the Milwaukee, it will probably mean a new saw, where the Husky would probably just be a replacement part!! I have a Milwaukee brushcutter, it works fine, but runtime is poor! My Husqvarna on the other hand, will run full throttle indefinitely if I have enough fuel! Only takes a few seconds to refuel too!
I believe Milwaukee has pretty good parts availability. I know Ego does. Anything that runs, breaks and will eventually need to be repaired. I guess a days work is a pretty wide range, but heavy cutting would require quite a few batteries with no charge points. I don't think that's the design or intention of these. Different tools suit different uses/situations for sure.
Thank you for posting this. I also have a 372 and I love it. But for just small break down, electric has come a long way. Could you work all day with it, not. But I can’t work all day either anymore. Getting older sucks
@@reusefullid start with tuning screwdriver your saw sounds lean turn out your high jet until it burbles at wide open throttle then with it still wide open lean it out until it cleans up till it crackels between the burble and a high pitched scream that should get you very close if you want to fine tune it, do fine adjustment from that point and video time your cutting results.
@@John-cj3ve I know... haha, but I've run the CSX5000 and 82CS34 against the 372xp before... I'm going to have to start making my own chains to be able to afford these tests😅
I have weights in another video, but I'll weigh them both and put the weights in the description. There is a pretty significant weight difference with the 12ah batteries. I want to say 4ish pounds.
Tank for Battery how does it stack up, last time i climbed the BC Coast hills I haven't stumbled across a charging ststion, did the Sasquatch hide them ?
Definitely a lot more cuts in a tank of gas than a battery. I work with saws mostly at home or at work where power isn't a problem (the work trucks have inverters). These aren't for backpacking into remote areas for sure.
I'm very impressed with the milwaukee. Cordless tools have come a long way. But i think i will stick with the gas saw. That 372 sounds like it's seen a lot of wood and needs a freshing up.
A good real test with a gas chainsaw. Milwaukee Max 9.5 nm, 14 m/s, 18v 2x12 AH vs Husky 372XP 70 cc 3.9 kW (5.3 hp), max 4.3 nm, 28.5 m/s. The chains are the same, the bars are the same. the result is almost the same. Greenworks v82 (72v) 8ah max 4.0 nm, max. 6 kW 25 m/s. This means that perhaps the Milwaukee engine with increased gear stages (torque and reduced speed) and the microprocessor sets the overheating temperature a little higher than, for example, the Greenworks. But this is all guesswork.
@Tihiroprjckuh9000 I think that if the Milwaukee could run a 3/8 chain instead of .325 it could outcut the 372xp but a decent margin. That torque is significant!
So WorkshopAddict did a good video where he swapped out the stock chain on the Milwaukee for a full chisel one and the saw performed way better. So maybe re run the test with both saws with full chisel chains. The chain he bought had to be shorten to fit the Milwaukee btw.
@captindan5460 this was a full chisel full house chain. The most aggressive chain Oregon makes in .325 pitch. I mentioned that towards the beginning and towards the end. I really need to figure out how to mount a 3/8 pitch chain on that saw. That will change things completely.
With Husqvarna you can work non stop but for Milwaukee you will need 10-20 full battery and you will be not so productive and chaisaw with battery is sime joke no one real pro dond use battery chaisaw
Yeah, I don't think pro fellers use them unless they are dealing with ridiculous environmental restrictions. Some linemen use them, and other people who only need to use a chainsaw every now and then. There is less maintenance for the occasional user. Might be good for firemen for cutting holes in roofs or cutting a tree or downed power pole blocking the way.
Those electrics are coming along nicely. Curious to see where they’ll be in the next 10 years
Is that 372 well worn? Kind of sounds little low on compression when pulling it n shutting down

@@reusefull You sure it's a real 372 ? Has not got the sound of one. Nor the chain speed it should be screaming and your chips a flying.

@BruceMyersLBZ I used a hyway top end from wolf creek... I'm not a parts snob🤣
Besides the 372xp being used in poor running condition, more importantly, did you do a run time test?
@RickMartineau I have done run tests before, but I didn't on this one. I think it's generally known that a gas saw will get 3 or 4 times as many cuts on a tank as a cordless will get on a battery (with the same power).

Sorry that 372 doesn’t sound right
Exactly what I was going to say. Something very wrong with it. Not a 372xp ? As a real 372xp has unmistakable sound and speed.
yeah, I'd expect higher RPM from a 372xp.
Poor audio quality as well.
I think it's just bad mic
100% your right not running good at all

@TheFanatic340 That's a good idea, I talked to a machinist about grinding it down to fit a rim sprocket.
The video we've all been waiting for! Interesting results. Do you think the Milwaukee can take a 28?
@SolarSpaClub definitely, and it's on my list

That Husky sounds a bit under powered!

Which one would you take in the woods with you?
What that a wolf at 3:07 ??
@Jayknowstools Depends on your perspective. It's a police cruiser - awd 5.7 hemi charger
Where did you get M18 2827 chainsaw w 24" bars
@@shooting201 I had to make the bar by swapping tips
What do you mean?
@@shooting201 I'm going to post a video on it. I bought a 3/8 guide bar and then changed the nose on the guide bar so that it became a .325 guide bar.

@@reusefull Give the Stihl RSC .325 pitch chain a try, you might decide to not worry about converting to 3/8 pitch.
@@tommycrete OK, I'll give that a try 👍
That’s the worst sounding 372 ever. Something’s not right
🤷♂️... I'm no expert, but it cut the pants off of a brand new 460 and solidly outcut a used 562xp, so it seems pretty good to me.
Battery got about 10 cuts before its done
Where can buy the stuff to made the bar?
i gonna go out on a limb and say the huskys chain needs some work .all the cuts came out the front by the time you got to the bottom
372 sounds way out of tune
That Milwaukee will run 3/8 on that sprocket.
@@willmiller9631 how?
@ same way. The T handle saw uses that same sprocket and it’s both .325 and 3/8s.
@willmiller9631 wow... I had NO idea. I didn't even know that was possible. Thanks for the info👍👍👍
@ yea, it’s an open star looking sprocket right?
@willmiller9631 yes
That's 1 lame husky!
Yea let's see how it does against a 572xp heck my echo 590 would smoke that Milwaukee.
