I'm a husky chainsaw guy. I have six of them. They don't vibrate as much as I just saw Spirit the newest one I have is probably 2 years old. Now I'm not going to bait if Stihl saws better or not. From what I hear from everybody they are a little bit better Saw. But not enough batter to justify the additional expense! I don't use mine every day. I use it for personal items on properties. I've taken down hollowed-out elm trees that are three or four feet across. In town. I've dropped 75-foot and taller oak trees. Husqvarna saws work fine by me.
Yeah but at least nazi’s didn’t invent the husqvarna. Guy was an ss nazi andreas stihl that is.
@@ericfuller6326I was thinking about the Husqvarna, but with that info I’ll definitely be buying the Stihl.
Antisemite
Need to set em up both using same chain and kerf to do a fair comparison. Get real technical same bar length. I like Husky but when it comes to top handles the German 150T and 200T/201T are hard to beat.
With Husky I think the 346xp, 372xp, 395xp were the best in their classes. That new 550xp Mark 2 is only a pound shy from their 562xp mark 2 which is sad…so I’d rather have the Echo 501p or Stihl Ms 261 if I was buying new saw today in that class.
All I can say, is the husqvarna is not running right. This is the only video I have seen where the husky doesn't out cut the stihl.
Yes i know they should let it run so it can calibrate it self
Yea he mentioned that several times
maybe someone already posted this, but the bar on the stihl gives it an advantage. The longer narrower bar on the husky hold back cutting efficiency.
I don’t know about anyone else but I use top handle on the grind all the time it’s quick light and maneuverable
Totally agree that the husky needs running in I got the 592 xp and it took about 5-6 tanks of fuel before it really performed. husky for me
Do you think the .325 chain on the husky has more drag? I run 1/4 pitch unguarded semi-chisel chain on 194T and it's a real quick saw.
Either one is a very good saw and I'd love to have either saw. But I'm a Stihl guy, so if I was choosing between them I would choose Stihl because I'm use to them and I love how great they cut.
But I can't afford either one of them, so I bought the holzfforma G111, a clone of my favorite saw the Stihl ms200t.
Cool video. 😎👍
Do you have oleo Mac products you test ?
Both are great saws, fit for purpose. Great vid, cheers Kev.
Well, the autotune 2/3 saws have a break-in period built in to the software that limits spark advance and rpm and keeps it richer for break-in.. after a few hours of runtime you'll turn it off and re-start the saw and you'll feel a significant power boost when the limiter goes off. They don't mention this but it's been found out by people who test them thoroughly.. also wonder if the autotune was calibrated beforehand and as has been mentioned multiple times by others, the bar/chain disadvantage.
Great test/demo. Based on that if i ever need to buy a chainsaw the Stihl would be my choice. TOP VIDEO.
I do like Husqvarna saws. But this one seems slightly underpowered. It could be faster but its alright. I Stick to my old reliable lady, the MS 200T wich is legendary
The 201 has a narrower chain so yeah it will cut faster! The new 540 has the 43 gage chain makes a huge difference
Hi James , I think the husky sounds flat , I have a wrist I just so have a ma192t and a husky t525 the older Sthil is better built I’ve had 3 new handles on the husky they’re made too brittle tho both are comparable in good to use . Husky is lighter so I use that mainly . We’ve all types husky and Sthil so I’m not biased . Keep well guys and gals 🤙
Both good saws James, but husqvarna for me 😊
Difficult to decide witch one to buy, in my case I not buy anyone of those, I have switched to battery power ones. Has much has I know the husky is easier to find maintenance parts, but I may with have going with Stihl.
I use the battery huskies almost daily. Phenomenal saws.
@@pieterdonia439 I agree with you.
I never operate the Husky T540iXP, for what I see in some videos appears the Stihl MSA300 like I have is a little faster but is no way the Stihl top battery last as longer as the hasky. In my opinion and I only can speak in regard to Stihl because is what I have in 3 different models, the saws are great no doubt about, I have use themes beyond manufacturing recommendations never have any problem in over 3 years just the battery technology still light years away for professional use.
Wah mesin2 super nih boss
Would’ve liked to see the weights on them
Stihl MS201T =3.71kg
Husq T540xpiii =3.8kg
Hope this helps 👍🏼
@@MachineryNationis that dry weight without the bar and chain ?
If your giving them away, I’ll have either one 😁
201 for life. Durable, reliable, unbeatable power.
That Stihl is a nice saw, I'm a Husky Guy myself, generally find them more comfortable and nicer to use, less vibration etc. I would like to see another video when that saws run in for sure
I really want to try this saw again once run in, but someone did say to me the other day that you shouldn’t have to run in a saw these days. But we will see.
@@MachineryNation interesting... I'd have thought any engine would have to be ran in to some degree..
I am the Idiot to Night First 🤣 Hi James Both look good saws Mate has Husqvarna top handled saw he likes it Have a good weekend Thanks again
Haha, thanks Darran. And you my friend 👍🏼
You can let me demo it to get it properly run in 😂
My ported g111 would woop on those
Why make a comparison if the huskys not even broken in
Use the same size bar and chains!!!!
Long live the MS200t.
Do you really think either company is going to support this saws long term? Both of those electronic systems have a short life span. Both of those saws are just one small plastic blob. Come and talk to me about how great they are in ten years time unless you don't mind spending a healthy amount of money every year.
I thought the extra ccs would beat the stihl but no
The huski will be better build and when run in is a better saw than the stihl
I got a 200t stock that will kill both of those
I have use my T540xp mark2 for 3 years and been nothing but piece of garbage since day one, that saw got me super angry so many times, starts nice and then just doesn’t seem to work anymore. I was a Husqvarna guy but when I tried stihl it was like pain relief.
Complaining about people using a trim saw on the ground. Is like me complaing that someone is using a gun at the range! MATE, I THINK PEOPLE CAN PUT TWO AND TWO TOGETHER FFS! Everyone's a critic! Here i am criticizing the critics! Lol Seriously tho, some people always have to find something negative with everything
I agree with everything you said 😂
Where is the echo cs355t my friend not a Fair
Echo makes the best top. Handles, it's not even close.
It's pronounced "Steel" btw
Should have said wrist injury,😂😂🤙
Ok George of the jungle watch out for that tree ! I'm buying the Stihl !
She is a quick saw hey Bill! 👍🏼
I'm prefer Husqvarna then Stihl.
Because Husqvarna is more reliable and comfortable.
The chain grind is bogging the husky out like crazy. Your rakers are too low.
Stihl keeps going
Frankly why the heck are we still using petrol two stroke internal combustion engine saws in the top handle category in 2023? Husqvarna and Stihl need to go all out to refine their electric motor powered stuff. The Husky T540XPII is fine, what's the point in this upgrade?
However to comment....the Husky is running a narrow nose bar that puts more strain on the motor - but is much niftier to use up aloft in my humble opinion. Of course we use top handled saws on the ground! why risk running a back handle over your foot when you can lift a limb up to a much more comfortable position to cut it one handed - oh and stop you stuffing the chain into the floor! (yes we do use top handled saws one handed I must confess after over 35 years in this game - am I forgiven?).
Yeah I do agree and love the battery saws! I will be putting the petrol saw up against the T540IXP in a future video.
The trouble is, so many people are not in the battery mind set yet, still a lot of petrol heads out there.
Who doesn’t? Haha your forgiven 😂
@@MachineryNation Petrol mowers 100% agree on, but other tools battery is good enough. Especially like that fact that batteries don't leak oil on my lawns when hedge cutting.
@@MachineryNation The Husky T540 mark II's later released models and the new mark III are running SP21G .325 pitch/1.1 gauge chain as standard now, that Stihl is using 3/8, 1.3 gauge isn't it? So a bigger chain that will grab out more stuff (cut quicker) but doesn't cut so smoothly and leave a clean cut for pruning work.
I'd be interested in you comparing these new Husky 542i saws with a clutch vs the existing 540i. I don't see how a clutch is going to 'increase' power only deliver it a bit more smoothly but with more weight/complexity.
@@roger4880 I can't agree - Husky are doing some brilliant battery mowers now.
The husky electrics good for cutting suckers but quickly bog down and quit once you get into actual wood.
Stihl all the way. Way more reliable, much better built and more comfortable to use!
😂 the mk 2 is better than the 201.
