My dad is in his mid 70s and is not the type to slow down for anything. The heft and stamina issues were getting to him on the chainsaw front as well. He has an extension style Ryobi battery powered chainsaw that he absolutely swears by. So much so that he's gotten a Ryobi electric weed whacker. And now a drill. All use the same battery pack and there are "extra capacity" sizes available. He's got one of the bigger packs on the saw and it'll last him all afternoon trimming trees, bushes, and under brush.
