How many chainsaws do you have? I have but one, and it's low mileage,

I guess you don't go up a tree with it then ;-)
Maybe an electric is what you need. These days they are pretty good,
no gas to fool with and they start every time. I use mine for little
jobs and crank up the gas saw if I am getting serious.

I've got one of each, but since getting the electric, the gas one just sits. I do like that Makita!
For serious work I like my Stihl. For little jobs the cordless demolition saw with an aggressive wood blade made for cutting limbs works great.

Skil has a blade called the "Ugly" for pruning. It's great with the
cordless recip saw.
The electric chain saw I have goes on a pole and becomes a palm tree
trimmer. Or any other thing you want to cut about 15 feet up

I have one and it works well. Remington is the brand IIRC.
