Thanks for the review man. Not much out there on the 194t. I was on the fence between the 194, 201, and echo 355. Decided on the 194t and love it. I couldn’t justify the 201t for my use either and have 0 regrets going with this 194. It rips!
I use to have the 200t and I loved it. But these days I can't afford even a used Stihl Ms200t or a any new pro Stihl saw. So I bought a Farmatec G111, a clone of the 200t and I'm waiting for it to be shipped to me. I figure to replace any bad parts as I can with better parts(oem parts if possible). Fingers crossed that it doesn't need anything right away. Lol 🤞🙄 I also bought the 72cc saw the Neotec ns872 clone of the Stihl 038 magnum on sale for $250 counting tax. It will arrive around Wednesday. So my fingers are crossed for that saw too. 🙄🤞
Having run t435s, t540, 193's, 201tcs, 194's, and my echo 355t, I would say the 194 is decent. If you are looking to get a topl handle that will do most everything alright, 194, t435, and echo 355t will all comfortably handle 14" chains, and in my experience, run without issues. The 194 is what the 193 should have been. As far as I'm concerned, the 193 (stock) is too heavy for how little power it has. You will not see me with one in a tree if there is any other top handle available, the only use I had for it was next to the chipper for making a small cut to get something through. If money is no object, of course get a 201 or t540. If you have a budget and need something that can do it all, just not as fast in larger wood the three I mentioned above will suite you just fine. I had already played with my echo before i ran a 194, however going off memory, I would give the echo a little advantage in power over the 194 and 435. If you have a good dealer near you, get the saw they sell. This is my 2 cents, having run all the above mentioned saws in pruning to large removals. When I had my stock echo and the company's 201t available, I didn't care which I had with me in the tree until I was making a lot of large cuts (13" and larger), then the 201 was better. Note: What I state above is referencing the saws in bone stock condition. From what I understand, they all benefit greatly from a muffler mod, and some from a timing advance. I've hear the 193 is actually a good saw if you do those simply mods. I would not recommend buying one unless you are planning to mod it.
Awesome saw bud love echo products myself. But ive been looking at the 2511t echo but ive been looking at the 201t and the 194t up in air still. But that thing rips.
I’m pretty sure, cuz I been watching.. the echo 2511 is a single ring non clamshell and it’s 3 pounds lighter than a Stihl 193/4. The 194 jug n slug will fit on a 193 it’s just a 1.5mm big bore so imo they are NOT “throw away saws”. The 190’s are clamshell not sure about the 150 but you can google eBay for your saws cylinder and find out. The 200/01 and the 355 are heavy to one hand and since most leads grown south to north you have to rotate the saw to crosscut. I can handle any top handle but it’s the rotating that’s starting to get me… so the little echo looks good because you can delete the base gasket etc etc. the little joncutters zenoah clones are clamshell “25.4cc” but I can’t find a weight comparison. But you can get 5 of them to ONE echo 2511. The 271 is cheaper but it’s a clam and I think the 355 is too. Not worth sacrificing a Stihl and their superior dealer network for imo. The 201 is an $800+ saw so unless you’re production most people don’t go for it because Stihl is obviously price gouging compared to the 200. If I got a g111 I’d put a meteor jug n slug stock av rubber and clamp bolt but by that time you’ve spent what you can get a used carb’d 200 for.
I'd like to know how a 12" bar runs on this. I might get this thing tomorrow but I'd rather have the 151TC. But it's like $250 more than this but it's wayyyy lighter and smaller which is what I want
