[QUOTE="Captain Ahab, post: 141592, member: 366"] The Strikemaster 40V Lithium 10" is designed specifically to turn that size bit(lower speed with lots of torque). I have one with a 10" Nils bit and it cuts like a dream. I never tried it with the standard Mora type bit. My Ice Gator 40V spins way too fast without enough torque to spin the 10" Nils. It will cut, but heats up pretty fast with that much drag. The Ice Gator works perfect with an 8" Nils bit. Nils cut smoother with less "grabbing" on the bottom of the hole than Mora/Lazer bits. They are similar in speed, though. Hope that helps. [COLOR="silver"][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] I just looked at the Jiffy E6 and the 6-9" models recommend 15:1 gear ratio powerhead. The 10" model recommends 24:1 gear ratio. Which means they have one powerhead specifically geared down for the extra drag of the 10" bit. [/QUOTE]
