Comments about StrikeMaster StrikeMaster Electra Lazer 12000 DP Power Ice Augers:
Just love this auger, it always runs! I have a 3 and a 5 year old kid that go fishing with me and they always want me to bring this auger instead of the gas one because its quiter. We have a six inch one and i wanted to see how many holes it would drill on a charge. in14 inch ice I drilled 64 holes and it was still goin strong. Just quit drilling because the kids wanted to fish instead!

I purchased this auger a year ago and it is on the ice about 50 days a season. It is silent no gas smell, cuts fast. I can cut 20-30 holds in 6 inches of ice and probably 15-18 when the ice is 24 inches thick. It works great and is easier to use than a gas auger, you press the button to start and release to stop. I have plug in for the remote power supply on my ATV which gives me added cutting time and also recharges the auger battery. If you purchase a cheap inverter you can charge the battery on the auger from the vehicles or use the vehicle battery.
it is a great little unit, low maintenance, no smoke and no gas smell or fumes. i give it a thumbs up.
The only draw back is the handle is made of a molded plastic resin and we all know what happens when you drop frozen plastic hard on the ice. The handle will crack so be careful not to drop the handle hard.
