SuperHandy Auger Power Head w/Steel 6x30in Bit

Well, took a chance and purchased this machine; it was a good move! After using it the day it arrived and again two charge cycles today, I'm even more impressed. We have thick, clayey soil. My previous gas operated machine was heavy and bulky, and the exhaust was horrid, you know how those two-cycle engines are. We got an order of sixty grand fir trees a day or two before this arrived. I was able to drill nine holes the first day on the first charge, and then two charges today got me through twenty more - so half the job is done! It's a pleasure to use. Not as heavy as the gas operated drill, I thought "oh yeah, this might dig a hole" after looking at it. Putting it to the test proved it though. Dug holes just as good as the gas operated one, and because there's no exhaust blowing in your face and no loud noise of a stinking two-cycle engine, and it's much lighter, it was easy to go from hole site to hole site. However, I think due to the heavy earth we have here, ten holes was about max. But I buried the bit to the hilt into each one. That's a 30-inch-deep hole. Took just minutes for each one, and in the lighter soil areas, even quicker. I really like this machine. It's worth the money, even though I think it's a bit high. But well worth it, and I don't have to mess around with the stinking gas operated earth drill anymore! Battery charges relatively fast, knocked off and had lunch and a break and in about an hour it was pretty much fully charged. On the downside, there's no automatic cut-off when the battery is fully charged so you really have to watch it and pull it off the charger soon after it's full. Other than that bit, it's a good machine and worth it. I'd get an extra battery of the larger size, or two. If you could rotate batteries, you could work with this all day. It's a pleasure to use.
