Thanks for the help fellas…still undecided and I really wish I guy could just demo these things. If I were to go with Jiffy I think it would have to be the 4G Lite, but then you get into the whole 2 stroke vs. 4 stroke argument…ugh.
If you are worried about cut speed with the 2 brands , I can only assume you drill ALOT of holes per outting..
Speed difference is only seconds between the 2 models not minutes!
Thanks Jeff, that’s what I figured, but the only chipper bit Strikemaster that I’ve ever seen run in front of me was really old and it crawled. The only ones I’ve seen run on video were the Lazer bit Strikemasters so I justed wanted to be sure the chipper bit SM’s weren’t really that slow.
Both are good machines and going with a chipper is a good choice.
Thanks, yeah from what I’ve read it just seems like chippers aren’t as high maintenance and I was happy with the one I used to use.
After looking over the lineup of new chipper style augers I was set in the new Strikemaster chipper mag with the 2 1/2hp, but after looking at the new Jiffy 4 stroke lite I was sold. No real reports yet, been using Lazers for many years also an old Jiffy tanker which has been bulletproof
I’d really like to hear what you think of the 4G Lite when you get to run it. That’s the one I’d get if I decide to go with Jiffy.
