Overview

A cordless mini chainsaw from Supstable (model BL-168) with interchangeable 6 inch and 8 inch guide bars, powered by a 1000W brushless motor and two 2000mAh batteries. At 3.2 pounds it is built for branch trimming and light wood cutting rather than felling trees.

The brushless motor is the detail worth noting over cheaper mini chainsaws: it runs cooler with less friction than a brushed motor, which is what lets Supstable claim up to 60 minutes of runtime across the two included batteries. Swapping between the 6 inch and 8 inch bars is the versatility pitch, one tool covers smaller pruning cuts and slightly thicker branches without buying two saws. An automatic oiler feeding a 30ml tank handles chain lubrication, which matters for a tool this size since manual oiling is easy to forget.

  • 6 inch and 8 inch interchangeable bars
  • 1000W brushless motor, 3.2 lbs
  • 2 x 2000mAh batteries, up to 60 min runtime
  • Automatic chain oiler

Who it's for

Gardeners, homeowners, or anyone doing branch trimming and light firewood cutting who wants something lighter than a full-size chainsaw. Its low weight and safety kit make it approachable for beginners, but it is not a substitute for a full-size saw on large trees or heavy felling work.

Strengths and trade-offs

Drawn from this product's published specifications.

What stands out
  • Interchangeable 6 inch and 8 inch guide bars
  • Brushless motor at 3.2 pounds
  • Two batteries for up to 60 minutes runtime
  • Auto-oiler and full safety kit included
What to check first
  • Not built for felling trees or cutting large logs
  • Runtime depends on wood density and cutting pace
  • Lubricating oil for the tank is not included

Performance notes

The 1000W brushless motor is what keeps the tool at 3.2 pounds while still cutting through branches, brushless designs shed less heat and friction than a brushed motor of similar power, which also extends the batteries' usable life per charge. The auto-oiler draws from a 30ml tank and feeds the chain automatically rather than requiring the user to stop and oil manually. Two 2000mAh batteries combine for up to 60 minutes of runtime, and the safety kit, lock, debris baffle, auxiliary handle, gloves, and goggles, is included rather than sold separately.
