I dont see an option on ions site to buy just the new 10 lightweight bit? Any idea? Id like to pair the new 10 bit with my ion X power head.

Brand new so they are selling it as a full unit. Might send them a text or call them to see if you can buy it.

I'm considering buying the Eskimo Pistol Bit 8", but would be all over that Ion composite 10" if they were selling it separately at a reasonable price.

FishUSA will be carrying them for $219.99 when they get them in stock!!

Well geez, I sure hope they are available to purchase separately...
-
I'd be interested in adapting that bit to be used with a drill. A lightweight 10" flight... yes please!

Not sure that is going to be the 10" offering .

Just poking around on Ardisam site and came across some parts for the 10" and a listing for:
37063 AUGER COMPLETE G2 10 INCH REPLACEMENT
Call for pricing

My guess is with covid and limited inventory they will pair them with power heads this year.

FishUSA (a sponsor) has them in stock. P/n 182638 for $219.99 I'm pretty sure these are the 10" auger bits! :thumbsup:

Did you confirm this is the 10?

Specs appear to be for the 8 inch model particularly the weight 3.5 Ibs... although p/n does not match up to anything on ION site

Customer service grabbed one in the warehouse at fish USA and confirmed to me it is the 8 model.
-
Thanks!! I've been waiting for them to get back to me on this!! :thumbsup: :icefish:
Edit.... I got the same info on it being an 8" bit. I asked if they were going to carry a 10" one, but haven't heard yet!!
-
Ardisam just got back to me and said that they will not be selling the 10" G2 auger separately this year.
-
Well that's a bummer...
Going to have get creative to make this one work....

That's what I heard back from FishUSA also. :( For those who do bite the bullet and get a new 10" G2 auger, please give us a review after you've had a chance to use it. The 8" G2 bit is on their website for just under $200. :icefish:

I thought u had a 10in dTro.......is the synthetic really that much lighter......or is it just the new shiny toy

The reduction of weight will be a big plus. The rotational mass alone is going to save battery life for sure. A lot of walking early ice, so any improvement helps.

Isn't the Eskimo pistol bit the exact same has the ion besides the color flighting?

Think they are both made from the same composite material ..but have different input shaft diameters 18mm/22mm
work around for those wanting to use their Pistol Bit on a Powerhead.
