[QUOTE="lunkerslayer, post: 441396, member: 217"] You guys missed out before icegator went belly up, want to talk about poor business practices, this guy could be arguably the worst one, he could claim he was the first on the market to introduce a full electric auger even before ion came on the seen. He was too proud and ended up getting over his head once Milwaukee and k drill came on the scene with their pistol grip augers. There are many companies that don't even allow you to buy parts for their products, 13 fishing is one example where they want you to send their China garbage to them so they can fix it. Times are tough in an ever shrinking market of the ice fishing industry. I own 3 icegator power heads, having to replace all 3 batteries which only cost me on avg 150 dollars and I was able to increase my amps from 4 to 10 ah giving me even better power when using my 9.5 dual flight 4 blade ice bit. It's really too bad icegator couldn't have weathered the storm once the little companies also went belly up because it's by far imho the fastest electric/gas auger still. Now if I they started making a reasonable priced brushless electric 36 volt motor it would even be more powerful and lose some weight to boot. [/QUOTE]
