[QUOTE="Captainbrad, post: 239616, member: 320"] I held out for a couple years on the move to electric. Ultimately I recently went with the new Jiffy E6 because I wanted the chipper blade. I used an Ion a lot two years ago and it worked very well but again I wanted the chipper. The K Drill is great (loved testing it) right up until I talk to guys who drill tons of holes and burn up drills. Knowing how little compared to some that I use augers, I figured the $500 drill would burn up about 6 months after the warranty went off. Then I think about the drills that were never intended to drill 8" holes in ice. At some point the companies are going to stop the warranty if the unit was used for ice fishing. (of course all speculation on my part) So here is what I know. I have used the Jiffy three times and drilled about 60 holes. It cuts like a Jiffy. I had an issue with the switch on the battery which now is gone. I plan to meet with Jiffy about it in St Paul this weekend. With all that said, I still have my gas augers until I can use it more but so far I like it. [/QUOTE]
