Got out with the Ion X this am.Few observations Love not pulling.Ion is definitely slower than the Z71,and seems to be having an issue part way thru hole...and doesnt want to cut.I seem to need to put a fair bit of pressure on it to cut,which is odd.Play around with it a bit.20 holes or so and still 3 bars on battery...so battery life will not be an issue for me.
there isn't much love for the newer jiffys that's for sure
the new jiffy suck so much crap iv gone through 2 on my new 3rd one I had a 10inch about 2008 I regret selling as now jiffy sold out no more tucomse motors they were thee best auger on the market for a long while now they r junk any recommendations on gas 10 inch?
Well changing the blades did the trick....cuts very nice now.Cant believe the blades were crap from factory but they were.Sent Ion an email....hopefully they send me a set of blades.
i run and gun alot and fish outside 99% of the time so it is nothing for me to drill 100 holes a day thats why i run the gas power head. i can usually get around 120 holes through 18" of ice pwer tank. it would take my 2 5 amp and one of my 6 amp batteries to get that many holes with my drill set up. its just another option for people with a strikemaster power head. the k-drill bolts right up to it with no adapter needed. good luck and tight lines
