walleye44 Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 How do you guys like your propane augers models? How do this work when is below zero? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pulsar_nx Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 Easiest starting engine out there. It's really surprising how little effort it takes sometimes. The pro4 has more than enough power. Mine rides inside the SUV so I can't say if the cold is a problem with these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PFUNK Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 Love my pro 4 and if the pro 4 lite drills like the regular one I'll be looking to make the switch. Never had any problems in the cold but not sure if it was below zero. Keep a tank warm when go out and you shouldnt have any problems. Even if the tank is cold I don't know that you'll have problems. Mine fires on pull 1 or 2 once its warm every time. Maybe 3 or 4 pulls first thing in the morning and then you're good to go. I think the clean burning propane will make for a long lasting auger but time will tell. Loving the fact that I won't be changing any old, stiff, leaky gas lines. They are the real deal, thats's for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newoodhntr Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 Really nice augers. 4 of my friends tried mine and they all bought one too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
traveler Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 We had a morning last year on Red when the car thermometer said minus 33 degrees on the way out at 6 a.m.Couldn't get her to go that morning (Jiffy pro 4) ... or the big buddy heater:) Luckily we had a sunflower backup heater, and after warming the buddy up we got it going, and same with the auger. Thats the only time in 2 full years it's failed me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cold one sd Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 I was thinking about getting the Pro 4 Lite this year until I found out the Pro 4 is the auger which has STX or Stealth type blades on it. The Pro 4 Lite has Ripper blades according to a friend who sells them. I think it would be worth the extra weight to have the STX blades.
