Default ION Electric Ice Auger

Due to a shoulder problem, I've been having some trouble pulling the starter cord on my old Jiffy... It still runs good, etc. but a sore shoulder takes the fun out of using it, so I bought an electric auger. I was a little skeptical......reviews on it were all excellent, but it's hard to imagine an electric auger having the power of a gas auger. Well, this thing is the real deal...cuts through ice like it's butter. I've used it 4 times now. The company says it will cut 40 holes through 2 feet of ice on one charge...it will do that and then some. My old ice fishing buddy was up last week and we went out.... He was pretty skeptical of it too, but I couldn't get it out of his hands...he wanted to cut all the holes!! There's no mess...no gas to mix, no yanking on the pull cord, it's light and it's quiet, etc... I think they are going to make gas powered augers obsolete.
