Eskimo E40 8-Inch Electric Ice Auger | 40V Lithium Power, Turbo Blades, LED Light

Meet the Eskimo E40 8-Inch Electric Ice Auger

The E40 blends Eskimo's legacy of dependable ice gear with a modern battery-powered punch. Weighing just about 13.5 pounds, it delivers the full capability of a 40V system without excess bulk, making it easier to move between holes and keep a rhythm during long sessions on the ice. Built to perform in cold conditions, this powerhead is designed to be a reliable workhorse for a day of hole hoping or a quiet, patient pursuit of a big catch.

powered by a 4Ah lithium battery, the E40 recharges quickly with the included 2-amp charger, returning you to the action in roughly two hours. That quick turnaround matters when the bite is hot and you need to drill efficiently across multiple spots.

Key Benefits and Features

• Lightweight power — weighs under 14 lbs, enabling easy transport and handling across the ice.
• Full 40V performance — a robust motor designed to maximize battery output for consistent cutting.
• Variable speed trigger — dial in the pace for finesse at the top of the hole and cleaner shavings inside shelters.

• Turbo high-speed cutting system — multi-edge blades deliver a smooth, fast cut on new holes or revisiting old ones.
• Composite bit — durable in cold weather with steady bite across ice types.
• LED drilling light — a bright light under the powerhead illuminates the cutting surface for night fishing.

The E40 also includes practical touches that matter on the ice. A reverse toggle helps flush slush from freshly drilled holes, keeping your work area tidy. Eskimo backs the build with a strong warranty: 5 years on the auger and powerhead, 3 years on the battery, reflecting a commitment to reliability you can count on on the coldest days.

Real-World Use

Whether you’re hopping between promising spots or settling in for a big bite, this powerhead is built to keep up. The lightweight frame supports extended use in shelters or open ice, and the fast recharge minimizes downtime between trips so you can stay focused on the bite.

What’s Included

Along with the E40, expect a 4Ah lithium battery and a 2-amp charger suitable for cold-weather performance, all backed by Eskimo’s established engineering and a track record of reliable ice gear since 1960.
