40v will last longer, have more power, and be heavier to lug around. Depends on what you want to cut and how heavy you want the saw to be.

I have a ryobi pole saw, more power is not going to make that 8" bar with safety chain perform noticeably better. Besides every couple cuts you need to stop to clear the debris out of your eyes.

Well, I use my Ryobi Sawsall with a course blade to prune trees. Change the blade for other things like steel. Try that with a mini-chainsaw 😊

At old house, flat ground so no issues using a ladder and a sawsall. New hous is on about an 80 degree slope so no ladders

well, decided to stick with the 18v. That is my ecosystem and for anything needed that requires more power my buddy can handle it and for the couple huge ass oaks that need to come down i'll hire that out,

speaking of sticks...

looking at their stick vacuums.

interestingly the chain saw when purchased with a battery only comes with a 2ah but the vacc comes with a 4ah.

then, buy a set of a 2ah and two 4ah and you get the cacc 'free' at $199. The vacc no battery is $129
