Electric Log Splitters: What They Can Offer You

Electric log splitters are a great alternative to gas powered log splitters for a lot of reasons, but we'll just focus on the Top 3 Reasons We Recommend Electric Log Splitters.

First, they are significantly more quiet than gas log splitters. This may not seem like a big deal, but when you consider that extended exposure to 85 Decibels or more can result in hearing damage, it's definitely worth being aware of.

According to Dangerous Decibels, for every 3dB (Decibels) over 85dB the "permissible exposure time" before damage to your hearing may occur is cut in half.

Second, of course, electric powered log splitters don't need gasoline or oil to operate. This means that you get to completely avoid the hassle of refilling tanks as well as inconvenient trips to the gas station when you realize you're backup gas can is completely empty. We all know it happens and we all know how damn frustrating it can be when you're primed to get some work done but have to spend time (and gas!) going into town first.

Third, but far from last, is the fact that you can safely use your electric log splitter indoors without needing special ventilation because there's no harmful exhaust. Not only does that make electric log splitters great for splitting wood in colder months when the last place you want to be is outside in a blizzard but it also makes electric log splitters inherently eco-friendly. Two birds with one stone, if you will.
