56-Volt Brush-less Ice Auger with the 56V interchangeable batteries would be excellent. Any thoughts? Power and run time would be great.

Ego could probably add an ice auger attachment to the Multi-Tool line-up. If needed, it could be gear driven (reduced) to increase the torque required. Or there is this universal setup to adapt a drill:

Actually looks like somebody already beat Ego to the game with a 40V offering:

3A and 5A, so 120W and 200W batteries.

Already did this (a)TE, but now I have yet another set of batteries, chargers, etc. I am officially 2 stroke free which was my goal. If this is developed, make sure it has 1200lbs of torque.You only need to develop the powerhead....... there are a ton of auger attachments already available.

Make it $250 and put in a 2-speed gearbox so it can double as a post hole digger. SOLD!!! :-)

Yes. I have a gas one. Besides my generator, it's the only gas tool I own. I dislike it alot. It's on my build list, but wife says "work on the house"I!
