IMJOSHV - Car Detailing and Reconditioning Tips

Күн бұрын

I was at my local Costco and came accross the special Greenworks Blower kit. It includes the blower, charger, and 2 batteries! I picked up up for around $279.99 which is a great deal with the 2 batteries. The next time i went to costco they had it discounted and it was $229.99. This is an amazing value for this. I recommend picking one up if you are looking for a cordless leaf blower. Great for the car or around the house! ENJOY!!!

I guess in 2023 Costco/Greenworks decided to reduce the included battery to one 2.5ah battery, just bought this unit couple of weeks ago. This review will help determine if it's worth to keep thank you

I have one of those, super powerful, but I had a little accident last Friday, a waist string got on the way while I was using it to dry my vehicle and the tip broke one of the internal blades of the fan. I called the company and the customer service agent sent me to a hardware store to try to find something that may fit??? I couldn’t believe what she suggested, I even said it was my fault, I will buy the part to fix myself, will see if I can get someone else to help me, so far bad customer experience. Thanks for the video Josh!!!

I have three batteries and can charge one in the same time I use two batteries so I always have one charged. Love my green works equipment. No oil or gas and tuneups needed.

Been buying Greenworks tools, got 4 2ah batteries and 1 5ah battery so far and pretty happy. Have the lawnmower, chainsaw, electric snow shovel and recently ordered the blower too. I hope they come up with a 2 stage full size snow blower as I will probably get that as well. I never even thought of using this to dry a car, great to see how well it works for that. I heard it works well for taking snow off too, I will try that out in winter.

The Kobalt 80V battery is the same except the rails. You can use the Kobalt battery with slight modification to the plastic rail. I also have their Kobalt 80V blower and EGO's most powerful one. They are similar in power. I'm so tempted to get the Greenworks blower before the sale ends tomorrow as I can use the battery interchangeable between the Kobalt and Greenworks.

I just bought this blower at Costco, and to tell you the truth, I'm not impressed by it, my old 110v. Toro blower is way stronger, also, the battery went dead in 15 minutes. I just might take it back.

@sman6435 2 жыл бұрын

It would have been nice to see how long the 2.0 mah battery lasts during regular and turbo modes. Also, I'm not sure the cone coming off was a valid concern since several times you didn't lock in the battery properly.....or is that another problem with this blower, hmm?

@jcto6013 2 жыл бұрын

Just my opinion, but the ratings are high enough that you don't really need the full output. I would remove the front extension and just use the main body with the battery. I do this with my 60v DeWalt and it's perfect for drying off the cars. It takes me about 5 minutes to chase off those pesky beads. Two key items to remember, your vehicle should be waxed for best results and use hearing protection. A blower is basically useless without wax/coating.

Are you sure that this video isn't as much about (what is it, about a 1970 Ford Torpedo?). We all choose what we consider our pride and joy. If Clint Eastwood adored them, why shouldn't we? ;-) I have my concerns, however. I have found that top rated mowers, string trimmers , chain saws, etc. will last me easily 10 years or more (I have a Makita string trimmer that just finished its 24th year of service, and it still works, with a few hand built replacement parts).I also have a small 20" Briggs 3HP push mower that was made in 1979, bought new. The key to its longevity was a redesign of the air filter I created. But will these batteries last as long as the blower, AND how much will they cost to replace? You HAVE to add that to the original cost if you don't want to get burned on the backside of its life. Some municipalities already legally prohibit the use of Gas powered blowers. Our freedoms are disappearing fast, and costs for these new whiz bang gizmos seem to be escalating as fast as Jeff Bezos or Elon Musk can blast new astro-nuts beyond the wild blue yonder. Will "I mean" become an acceptable way of starting a sentence? I mean, I don't know!

I own two Milwaukee M18 Fuel blowers--one for the front yard, one for the back. They're rated 450 CFM; the 730 CFM Greenworks blows more than 150 percent as much air. 450 is plenty for me, but my wife sometimes misses our old corded unit. I'm now into the Greenworks 60-volt platform. If one of our Milwaukees dies, I'll replace it with a 60V 700 CFM Greenworks.

These types of blowers are made for small yard not large or medium yards with tons of leaves. Tried ego 650, 180mph and it only worked for a 30 to 40 min on front half of my yard. Luckily I had 4amp battery to do the other half. Still left with tons of leaves in the back. Unless they come up with longer battery times, I am not buying them. BTW, the blower is heavy with the batteries and it will push down your hand making it painful. Gas blowers for the win.
