A quick hands on review for those interested.

Saw the 1250 really nice homeowner machine. Hydraulic saw easy to remove bar and chain. Bar stop so you dont hit the log tray with the chain.

Single speed pump and can only cut or split not both. 4 way wedge is adjustable only by hand .

The 1500 model ( next one up from the base 1250 ) has conveyor feed, adjustable wedge via lever, 4 sec faster and can cut and split at same time. Difference is 5k though.

Very nice unit and since I work alone the log lift and extension to push cut pieces into my dump trailer is ideal.
Will come in around 10.5k cdn with 13 hp Honda engine and electric start.

Ran the unit and it was very instinctive right away.
Will be ordering if the financing is right.

Awesome!

New Blacks Creek 1250 custom is finally here. They added a lever to make the wedge adjustable ( the 1250 normally comes with manual pin adjustment ). They also added a transition piece ( not shown ) to bring the out feed side up to 26" so it will load right into my dump trailer.
Upgrades other than above: Log lift, Honda 390GX , Electric start.
Luna is the shop supervisor and has approved the purchase.
So far my 30-40 mins splitting by hand turned into 5 mins!!!
