Would less power and speed offer a better chance for kickbacks? Even so
and over all, I want to 'believe' that using an electric chainsaw in the
friendly confines is safer, but the difference in serious injuries
caused by a gas or an electric chain saw is probably akin to the
difference between being hit by a Mack truck or a freight train. Much
different, but less difference.
