The Bare Bones CHEAPEST Polesaw from HARBOR FREIGHT vs Makita & Milwaukee Multi-tools

What happens here

The presenter discusses Makita's battery setup, which uses two 18-volt batteries for a total of 36 volts, calling it a "double battery" system. He notes that Makita's tools have a slight delay before reaching full speed, unlike Milwaukee's instant full power. He also mentions Makita's safety feature where the tool automatically shuts off if not used for a certain period, requiring a button press to reactivate. While acknowledging it as a safety measure, he expresses dislike for it when using chainsaws.

Goal: Understand Makita's battery configuration and safety protocols.
