Model-Specific Results
1 of 3 models are SAFE or TIGHT. Most demanding model: Makita UC3551A (14-inch, 14.5A, Heavy-Duty) (5,220W surge).
| Model | Running | Surge | Verdict | Runtime | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| WORX WG305.1 (14-inch, 8A, Budget) | 960W | 2,880W | Safe | ~0.7h | Engineering Est. |
Show expert analysisTechnical: **Running load:** 960W from OEM specs (8A × 120V). **Estimated startup surge:** 2880W at 3x running (motor-load multiplier — no OEM starting watts published). **Voltage:** 120V AC. Compact design, auto chain tensioning, tool-free chain replacement. Field note: The WG305.1 is the best-selling electric chainsaw on Amazon US. At 8A it's the lowest-draw saw in this set and the most power-station-friendly. The estimated 2880W surge is the main compatibility factor — the 960W running load is manageable for most mid-range stations. Can a portable power station run the WORX WG305.1 chainsaw? Only if your power source can supply at least 960W continuous and approximately 2880W surge at 120V. The motor startup surge is the main challenge, not the running watts. | |||||
| Greenworks 20222 (14-inch, 10.5A) | 1,260W | 3,780W | Fail | — | Engineering Est. |
Show expert analysisTechnical: **Running load:** 1260W from OEM specs (10.5A × 120V). **Estimated startup surge:** 3780W at 3x running (motor-load multiplier — no OEM starting watts published). **Voltage:** 120V AC. 10.5A motor provides more cutting torque than the 8A WORX for thicker branches. Field note: The Greenworks 20222 sits in the middle of this set at 10.5A. It draws 31% more than the WORX but delivers proportionally more cutting power. The estimated 3780W surge requires a power station with adequate startup capacity — stations under 4000W surge may struggle at initial trigger pull. Is the Greenworks 20222 harder to run on a power station than the WORX? Yes — 1260W versus 960W running, with an estimated 3780W versus 2880W surge. The Greenworks needs a power source with higher continuous and surge capacity. | |||||
| Makita UC3551A (14-inch, 14.5A, Heavy-Duty) | 1,740W | 5,220W | Fail | — | Engineering Est. |
Show expert analysisTechnical: **Running load:** 1740W from OEM specs (14.5A × 120V). **Estimated startup surge:** 5220W at 3x running (motor-load multiplier — no OEM starting watts published). **Voltage:** 120V AC. Heavy-duty motor at 2900 FPM chain speed, built-in soft start for smooth startups, current limiter to protect motor from burnout under overload. Field note: The UC3551A is the professional-grade corded chainsaw in this set. At 14.5A it draws 81% more than the budget WORX. Makita's built-in soft start may reduce the actual startup surge below the estimated 5220W, but no OEM starting current is published to confirm. The current limiter is a useful feature for generator use — it throttles power rather than causing a hard trip. Can a portable power station run the Makita UC3551A? Only if your power source can supply at least 1740W continuous and approximately 5220W surge at 120V. The built-in soft start may reduce actual surge below the 3x estimate, but without OEM data this cannot be confirmed. | |||||

Generator Insights
The 3600W surge capacity can support typical residential motor startup scenarios including refrigerator compressors, well pumps, and power tools with inductive loads. The 1024Wh capacity sustains the 1800W continuous rating for approximately 34 minutes at full draw. This configuration can handle brief high-demand events common in backup power and job site applications.
LFP chemistry provides stable electrochemical performance under load cycling. The 3600W surge rating indicates transient overcurrent capability designed for inductive startup events.

Technical Analysis
Spec-Based • No GuaranteesTechnical Breakdown
Running range: 960W (8A) to 1740W (14.5A) depending on motor size. Estimated surge range: 2880W to 5220W at 3x running (motor-load multiplier — no electric chainsaw manufacturer publishes starting watts). Voltage: 120V AC for all corded models.
Expected Behavior
Estimated runtime: ~0.4h. Electric chainsaws draw near-maximum rated power during cutting and drop to near-zero between cuts. Load spikes occur when the chain engages wood, especially in hardwood or thick limbs. At 2 hours daily use (storm cleanup), energy consumption ranges from 1920 to 3480 Wh depending on model.
Field Note
Motor startup surge is the primary compatibility concern. A chainsaw that draws 960W running may need 2880W briefly when you pull the trigger. The spread between budget (8A) and professional (14.5A) models is dramatic — nearly 2x in running watts and surge. Choose the smallest saw that handles your cutting needs to maximize compatibility with your power station.
