Default Rapala power augers?
Has anybody had any experience with Rapala power ice augers? I see they are on sale at Canadian Tire for 30% off. Thanks.

They're pretty much rebadged Eskimos with the same Viper motors...30% off sounds like a good deal

Second season with mine, starts easy and drills like a champ. The only thing I changed is the gas cap, stole the one from my old auger with screw in vent.

Also about 30% lighter than my old Jiffy, but that might just be because its a relic from the 80's.
