Well, put me in the class of people who absolutely love the performance of the Strikemaster Lithium Lazer auger. I have nothing but good things to say about this electric solution to drilling holes in the ice. Truthfully, I am going to find it very hard to box it up and send it back, but I know that’s the safe thing to do.
With all that being said, here is my question: What does everyone think the odds are that Strikemaster will offer a new/revised/improved/fixed design in time for the next ice fishing season? If I absolutely knew they’d give this technology another shot next year, I wouldn’t hesitate to send it back and take the $700 credit. But if they don’t redesign it and jump back into the electric auger market, I might go another way.
Thoughts everyone? Or, better yet, do any IDO staffers or Strikemaster reps KNOW the answer to this question?
