Paxwrenx 8-Inch Cordless Pole Saw Review for DeWalt
As an Amazon Associate we earn from qualifying purchases. Details
The Paxwrenx EF-20PS-001 is a cordless pole saw with a chain bar of 8 inches, sold as a bare tool, so the battery and charger are not in the box. The listing says it is built for DeWalt 20V MAX batteries and reaches up to 15 feet with three pole sections. This review is for people who already own a DeWalt 20V battery and want to cut overhead branches without a ladder. Every spec below comes from the Amazon listing, checked on 2026-10-12. We have not tested this saw, and the reach and cut-count figures are the listing’s own claims.
Quick answer
This is worth a look if you already own a DeWalt 20V MAX battery, want to reach limbs up to about 15 feet, and are happy with a bare tool. Because the battery and charger are not included, the total cost depends on what you already own. If you do not have a compatible battery, or you need a saw that is included with a battery, choose a kit instead.
The product, from the listing
1. Paxwrenx 8-Inch Cordless Pole Saw for DeWalt 20V MAX (Bare Tool)
Tool-only notice: the battery and charger are not included. Oil is also not included.
Specs (from the listing, checked 2026-10-12): 20-volt battery platform. 8-inch chain bar, 3/8-inch low-profile pitch chain. Chain speed up to 18 feet per second. Motor described as high-efficiency. Automatic chain oiler. Tool-free chain tensioning. Low kickback chain. Pole sections: two or three. Maximum length 7.5 feet with two sections and 10 feet with three. Total reach with user height: 12.5 feet with two sections and 15 feet with three. Model EF-20PS-001, from Paxwrenx.
Battery compatibility, as the listing says: DeWalt 20V MAX models DCB200, DCB201, DCB203, DCB204, DCB230 and DCB240. We have not checked these against DeWalt’s own documents, so confirm your battery’s model number before buying.
Pros (as the listing describes them): up to 15 feet of total reach; tool-free tension adjustment; automatic oiler; low kickback chain. The listing also describes a 90-day return window, a 1-year replacement and a 3-year limited warranty.
Cons: the battery and charger are extra. The listing gives a claim of up to 90 cuts per charge on 4×4 pressure-treated wood, using a 4.0Ah battery, but this is a manufacturer figure and we have not checked it. The listing does not state the saw’s weight.
Best for: pruning branches above head height when you already own a DeWalt 20V MAX battery.
Skip if: you have no compatible battery, you need more than 15 feet of reach, or you need the weight figure before you buy.

What the listing does not say
- Battery runtime: the cuts-per-charge figure is the manufacturer’s claim for one battery size and one type of wood.
- Warranty terms: the warranty lines come from the bullet points, not from a separate warranty document.
Worked example: two sections or three
The listing gives 12.5 feet of total reach with two pole sections and 15 feet with three. Subtracting gives 2.5 feet, which is the extra reach the third section adds. So a branch that sits beyond 12.5 feet calls for the three-section setup.
Fit checklist before you buy
- Check the model number on your DeWalt battery against the list above. For another DeWalt 20V MAX pole option, see our DEWALT 20V MAX pole and hedge trimmer guide.
- Measure the highest branch you need to reach. Two sections give 12.5 feet of total reach; three give 15 feet.
- Keep the saw well away from power lines. The manual sets the safety steps, and a branch touching a line is a job for a utility or a professional arborist.
- Use the chain oil recommended in the manual, because oil is not included.
