        This worked great for ice fishing
        My gas auger blew a piston I went out and bought this auger. It worked great. I drilled through ice in seconds. I fished three lakes form 12"8"6" of ice fished all day. I'm one of those guys that Swiss cheese the ice chasing fish and I had no troubles doing that. It's easy enough and light enough my wife used it. ****The Handel's are a bit wide and it's hard to pack your sled around it. But I would recommend it.

          Surprised at how easily it drove the 8" dirt bit through tough Arizona desert top soil. Light weight one person operation without the hassle of starting a gas engine balanced on top of an auger was great. Add on the quiet operation with the instant on and reverse - no more gas augers for me. I was surprised at how noisy the gear box is when no load is present.

          I took this ice fishing. The lake we were at had around 24” of ice. After drilling 7 holes, the battery was still at 75%! Love it!!
