strikemaster power head
 

Just read that strike master has a power head made by solo that fits their hand augers. Anyone know anything about this? I can't find any sale adds, just some articles.

they had them at Gander last year, didnt look to see what the specs were. They had just a powerhead and u could choose whatever diameter auger or attach to a hand auger. I have a strikemaster solo 137 and it attaches to just about any auger the only bad thing is the attachment point is low, wont drill too deep. The solo motors are great, mine starts easy and has lots of power. Only negative is its a single chipper blade, cuts slow but will cut thru anything and easy to sharpen, otherwise good machines. Was at Gander last night they have nothing left, but did find new blade for 20 on clearance, good score

Thanks Jimmy, what was the price on them? Seems like a great idea for those that have hand augers already and wanna step up without big bucks.

here are a couple more ideas for hand auger guys looking to step up w/o too much expense... everyone has an extra 18v drill, right?
