The Milwaukee M18 Fuel Dual Battery Chainsaw Redefines Cordless Power
We’ve seen a ton of advancements in the world of battery-powered chainsaws over the last few years, but Milwaukee is upping the ante. The Milwaukee M18 Fuel Dual Battery 20-Inch Chainsaw posts some truly mind-blowing specs, so we’re excited to dive in and see what this Pro-focused saw has to offer!

Milwaukee’s new M18 Fuel Dual-Battery 20-inch Chainsaw generates a gas equivalence of 70cc thanks to its PowerState brushless motor. To put that in perspective, this saw outpaces the Greenworks Commercial 82V 20-Inch Chainsaw and is almost on par with the Pro-grade Stihl MS 462 C-M. For a battery-powered chainsaw, this is breaking new ground.
This tool features two mower modes: Peak Power Mode and Standard Mode. In Peak Power Mode, it produces power levels of up to 5.8 HP and torque levels of 9.5 Nm. These figures will allow you to make demanding cuts without bogging down. In Standard Mode, this chainsaw reaches up to 4.4HP, which lets you prioritize runtime and temperature while still maximizing performance.
The 2827-22 chainsaw requires two M18 batteries for operation, and Milwaukee specifically optimized it for use with the new M18 Forge XC8.0 batteries. On a single charge, it delivers up to 60 cuts in 10-inch hardwoods.
Price: $899 kit with two 8.0Ah Forge batteries, a charger, and a scabbard. Available August 2024
