Super Light and Mobile StrikeMaster Lithium 24V Auger Delivers the Power You Need to Get on Top of More Fish Faster
"A lightweight, hole-punching powerhouse, the Lithium 24v crushes the performance of standard, hand-held cordless drills," said ICE FORCEĀ® Pro Staffer Tony Roach, and in-demand guide on Minnesota's famed fishery, Lake Mille Lacs.
Fitted with an 8-inch auger, StrikeMaster's new Lithium 24v weighs 14.3 pounds and can punch as many as 50 holes on a single charge. Fitted with a 6-inch auger, a Lithium 24v weighs only 13.3 pounds and can punch as many as 100 holes on a single charge. Punch performance results are based on repeated tests through 16 inches of ice.
The StrikeMaster Lithium 24v auger power system includes:
- an internal battery-management system to ensure battery longevity,
- a 3-LED battery-status indicator, and
- a wall-mountable 2-amp charging station that can bring a battery from empty to full charge in as little as two hours.
The new StrikeMaster Lithium 24v auger is available through leading ice fishing tackle retailers in the U.S. and Canada and through Rapala.com. It has an MSRP of $399.99 USD.

Finding and catching the fish of a lifetime through the ice no longer requires burning gas. After introducing the first electric auger in 1977, StrikeMaster in 2017 revolutionized ice fishing again with its Lithium 40v.
StrikeMaster's tradition of redefining augers and drill units - without sacrificing the reliability consumers are used to - continues with the introduction of the StrikeMaster Lithium 24v auger. Celebrating the revolution it's leading in battery-powered ice fishing, StrikeMaster launched its #KickYourGas campaign.
"#KickYourGas highlights what savvy anglers already know - the future of ice fishing is battery-powered," Roach said. "No more gas and oil required. No more hard starting. No more lugging around a heavy two-stroke auger."
