MyFishFinder.com Just like iceshanty but warmer
if you don't want to buy a dedicated auger here is an option.the lightest auger is the eskimo pistol. i use strikemaster lazers in three sizes.the plate will add weight and bulk and not needed. and they are having wobble issues with them anyway.the strongest right angle/pistol grip drill, which is 1300 inch pounds is the ridgid octane and it is free when buying ridgid"s octane 9amp battery/charger kit at home depot. comes with a lifetime warranty. simply register your tools. https://www.iceshanty.com/ice_fishing/index.php?topic=362605.0

Get an older Jiffy. For $5 a year in gas and oil it will be running much longer and for way less money than anything electric.
But you will go broke on Advil and Tylenol after drilling 50 holes with a 60 lb auger. My Jiffy 30 has been retired for the electric age. The weight is one part of it...
