On paper the Ryobi OCS1830 18 V 30 cm Bar ONE+ Cordless Brushless Chain Saw & RC18150 18V ONE+ Cordless 5.0A Battery Charger comes down to a 30 cm (12 in) bar and battery power.
The usable cutting length is 30 cm, which puts this saw squarely on timber up to around 25 cm. The working rule is to keep the bar about 5 cm longer than the wood you cut most.
The specification lists a 18V battery platform.
It is fitted with a chain brake, tool-free chain tensioning, low-kickback chain.
Battery saws suit pruning, garden work and light firewood. The pack usually costs more than the tool, so check whether this is sold as a bare tool and whether it runs batteries you already own. It is a homeowner grade machine, intended for occasional use rather than daily work.
Specifications are as published by the manufacturer or the retailer listing rather than measured by us. Always check the figures on the product page before buying.

FAQs
Is there a sharpening kit?
Simple. Cheap round file 4.5mm. Sharpen by hand, keep the angle consistent by stroking the file through 4-5 times while checking from above. Repeat on both sides and ensure the angles are around 35 degrees with a sharp edge. Practice makes perfect. You will feel the results of the sharpening and most importantly keep the chain away from dirt which blunts the chain very quickly. Always wear safety equipment.
How long do battery take to charge?
Not very long, im not sure exactly because i have a multiple charger but under one hour.
Hi have 4.0 batteries, will they be powerfull enough?
Yes. Got 4.0 batteries and they were more than adequate. Very pleased with the chain saw.
