After using a hand auger for a number of years, and borrowing a few different gas augers, I bit the bullet and bought a Jiffy Propane last year. I got the last 8" one they had at Cableas and man its the best piece of equipment I have bought in a while. My buddies made fun of me for paying so much for an auger when gas ones were cheaper. But when we were on Fish lake in the middle of Feb and we were cutting holes like crazy they were glad there was no need for hauling gas around. I like the fact there is not gas, and I taje a few propane canisters for my heater and auger. It has never taken more than two pulls to start. Moat times it starts first pull. People have their own opinions on gas Im sure, but Jifffy makes one hell of an auger and the propane one is top notch.
