ION Electric Ice Auger

ION is a pioneering brand in the ice fishing industry, recognized for introducing the world's first high-performance electric ice auger. The brand was specifically developed to offer anglers a cleaner, quieter, and more lightweight alternative to traditional gas-powered augers. By utilizing advanced lithium-ion battery technology, ION revolutionized the winter fishing experience, eliminating the need for mixing fuel and reducing the physical strain associated with manual or gas drilling.

While the brand was conceived in the United States, manufacturing is primarily centered in specialized facilities in China to maintain scale and cost-efficiency, though some assembly and parts sourcing occur globally. Today, the brand remains a dominant force in the ice fishing market under the stewardship of Ardisam, Inc., which continues to innovate with the 'G2' and 'Alpha' series augers.

ION is an integral part of the Ardisam family of seasonal outdoor brands. Headquartered in Cumberland, Wisconsin, Ardisam oversees the research, development, and distribution of ION products. This ownership ensures that the brand maintains its focus on rugged, cold-weather performance while benefiting from a large logistics and support network across North America and beyond.
