Strikemaster 8" Lite-Flite
jbird68:
Used my 8" lite-flite for the first time today. This thing rips through ice. Also, when breaking through the bottom of the hole, it goes through clean. My old HT auger would leave a jagged edge on the bottom. I was worried about breaking flites if this would have been the same condition while using the Lite-Flite. I have it connected to my ice gator with new Amped Outdoors LifePo4 batteries. Must have drilled 40 homes today with no slowing down.

I see Strikemasrer has come out with a new blade cover for the Lite-Flite augers. Has anyone tried one out yet? I'm still using a guard with the rubber strap that breaks every few years or so. This new guard has magnets and latches to keep it on the auger blades.

Cold Snap sells a blade cover you pop off with your foot. Your hands don’t come near the blades.
