Questions & Answers
What is the difference between Model # RY40HPCW02B and Model # RY40505BTL ? Both are Ryobi 40V HP 16 inch Battery Chainsaws.
the btl has a speed of 22 which is about 50% more ( speed 14.2) than the w02k. so maybe a more powerful motor or geared differently
Hello, Kevin - The RY40HPCW02 is a newer model than the RY40505. It is more powerful than the RY40505, and you will get more cuts per charge with the RY40HPCW02. It also features metal bucking spikes for kickback protection and an improved automatic oiler to reduce oil leakage. If you need further support, then feel free to ask another question.

I'm doing 10-12" pine and about 12 cuts uses 1/2 of a 4 amp battery. Not sure what that 80 cut tree species is or it's diameter. If you are going to do much cutting have two batteries and time to cool them down. The charger enforces cool down.
What is the warranty?
