Edit: went out this morning for a few hours, maybe 7 or 8 inches of ice. Cuts very well, just hold it up and it does the work for you, it cuts very fast and there is really no torque at all. I did push down drilling one hole with not a single issue besides it cutting faster. Granted I am using new blades but I was still pleasantly surprised.
Reverse works as advertised.
I did say in my previous post the lights were gimmicky, they are actually nice to have. It was predawn, thick ass fog, and they lit up the auger very well to check flush after using reverse.
I didnt count the amount of holes i drilled but my battery was down 1 bar. I am guessing i popped at least 35 holes but that counts reopening old ones which it does easily. Battery was fully charged in 15 minutes when i got home.
Best auger i have ever owned. Very pleased with my purchase.
Mine arrived today.
Cant wait to use it. Build quality looks ok. Like the spot for the allen key underneath. Lights seem a bit gimmicky but thats fine. Seems very smooth and the motor isnt that loud. Swedish made blades. Plastic handles feel strong and sturdy. Button feels like it is decent quality.
Cant beat the extra battery deal. Cheapest i have seen them for is 161.99
Does seem to weigh a ton
compared to my buddies milkwaukee with 8" kdrill but 24lbs is still damn good.
