If you already have a hand auger why let it go to waste. buy the icegator head unit and attach it to the hand auger in the long run it will be cheaper than gas powered.

With the way gas prices are and the convenience, I will be getting my ice gator before the start of next season. I have heard very good reviews, with little complaint of the product. If there was one, the company took care of it right away. That is something we are not seeing as much now a days.

Icegators are the best thing in along time in the ice fishing industry!   never wore my batteries out last year even on a 3 day event  Now add in the price of gas....   ya can recharge them as you drive if you make an adapter  or even charge them off a solar panel system.. or as you drive with an inverter and the regular plugs   after your done drilling  ya can use the batteries for the TV or DVD player!  Plus ice gator has the best customer service Ive seen to date

ICEGATOR, Cant say enough about the crew that makes them. I have dealt with Mark a few times and a great guy to deal with. Just hooked up with him for a couple extra Batts. last week.
