[stubnail67]

They said they were all on back order 2511t ...... like i said the cs271t runs good have not cut with her yet.....no mods nothing.... but it felt decent and at that price im cool.....I will snap some pics soon.Oh and a free hat also 14 bucks free....

I have been running my little 2511 for 10 months, every day a pleasure running the little sucker, its been solid like my 260t has been for the last 9 years (you know the ms150 that echo made a decade before the stihl and few noticed)

I went to my echo dealer today not one 2511t... but i have one... so they had one 271t left i told them not to fuel it or touch it...no gas or oil in the back of the wife's suburban....it came home for 256 out the door.... not as light as the 2511t.... but av is a lil stiffer and it seemed spot on on the tune with the limiters on.... this was of course out of wood but its not a bad saw....at all... for 256 brand new out the door im happy... see how it filters palm tree fines soon....

I looked online last night at Home Depot. They indicated they're in stock for delivery to store, but this morning they are out of stock too.

we saw them but they were not in the states yet....they just arrived at the end of 2017.... and are in short supply as oppesed to the ms150t..... their were 4 guys in there the 15 minutes looking for them..... echo underestimated the demand here....

 

[stubnail67]

everyone was wanting that 20 percent off....the guy told me he would have a bunch in guess he hit the wall to....i saved 60 bux and that lil 271t seems pretty well built....just a wee bit heavier....I now have the cs 355t cs 330t cs271t and the cs2511t....for my echo top handles....the cs 355t and the 2511t are race horses.... the 330t and the 271t are my back ups....

How does the CS2511t compare to the CS355t? I know it's smaller, but a newer engine design?

2511 is all new design.

designed for 2 different things and so different that a comparison isnt really doable. 25cc and 5lb compared to 36cc and 8+lb

 

[stubnail67]

I like both ....the cs 355 would be my pick for over all build quality you can do it all with it.....but the smaller one is enjoyble to use at 50 i find i like the lil one and will use it to its limits....like to de branch a tree... then drop it with the cs 355t....if i wanted to trim a palm i would use the 2511t.... if i was going to drop it i would use the 355t....if you can afford both they are well worth buying....I like to have a back up for everything so my cs 330t is my cs 355t back up... the cs271t is my back up for my 2511t.....

Love my saws.

2511t - 10", 1/4 pitch
355t - 14"
501p - 18"

Saving this season for a 620pw with a 24". Should cover most of my needs.

Sorry for the crappy photo

Here are all my echo top handles...

Nice collection stubnail! Those GB bars are something else.

I bought a 355t bumper spike for my 2511, last thing I want is to Crack the case when I'm digging in!

 

[James Miller]

When I picked up my 355t I asked about the 2511 he said he ordered 2 but there on back order that was about a month ago. Guess I'll be waiting awhile longer till I get to handle one the way it sounds.

My 2511t is the Euro model - I ordered it after asking Echo Canada if they had plans to release the saw here - they said "NO"!

I'm happy I have it, but I wish they just told me the truth. I could have saved some money!

I personally feel a 10" bar is ideal. The 12-14" they push here is a bit long IMO.

So did you get this mounted on the 2511t?

Pretty curious as the 1/4 .043 stihl chain and sprocket only comes as green safety

 

[fordf150]

If anyone is looking for a 2511, customer of mine is selling the one he just bought. Comes with the stock bar and 3 chains plus an extra 12" 3/8lp .043 bar with 3 extra chains. $350 plus shipping.

Yep it was mounted.... On the above saw actually, guy loves it and it is definitely smoother.

I got a chance to hold a CS2511T last Friday at a dealership. This saw is tiny!

Cool.
Oregon sprocket right?
Which chain did you use for the 1/4”
Do you know the part no.?

 

[greengreer]

Last I checked the sprocket drum is only available overseas. I think chainsaw bars uk has them and will ship here. Word on the street is echo is going to be making the saw available with the 1/4p setup in the US before long.

25ap oregon chain is what i used

Is the stock bar .050? 14" or 12"?
