Just something to keep in mind: Ah doesn't tell you anything about the amount of energy stored, you're looking for Wh. A 12V tool that has a 10Ah battery is still a lot less powerful and has a lower capacity than a 40V 5Ah battery. As long as you're in the same brand and voltage range, Ah can be used as an easier alternative to Wh.

You are absolutely correct, I flubbed that one.

@@TheLawnEngineer It's not that big of a deal, pretty much everybody does it that way, and it's unfair to compare 12V to 40V tools anyway. It's just good to be very specific online, since some people will always take what you say as an absolute truth, and will blame you when they find out they messed up.

So glad to hear of your positive review. I ordered the blower attachment w/o the handle arm earlier this morning.. It is supposedly interchangeable with their Ego string trimmer.

Just a heads up, I’m sure u figured this out since I made the video, but u can move the front handle farther back to help with bending over as much. It’s supposed to b abt midway from the coupler part to the motor housing. Give or take a little bit each way

They're a Chinese company with a plant in Georgia. Chevron owns the brand. Not sure if that's the same Chevron as the oil company.

Good addition. Hopefully some US based companies can catch up. I see John Deere isn't going to try and they are going to sell EGO products at their dealerships.

Since you are now a 2-Tesla family, and using beefier electric chargers, have you seen a significant uptick in your home electric bill?
@TheLawnEngineer 8 ай бұрын
Yes it is a noticeable increase. I am leasing a charger from the electric company, so the cost for car charging is separate on the bill from the rest of the house. Last month's cost for car charging was $65 including the $20 for the charger. The remaining electrical charge for the household was $90.

You should go with a single stage probably would clean all that at least half the time. But if you get tons of snow maybe the new 28inch 2 stage would be better.

@TheLawnEngineer 8 ай бұрын
The turning vanes on this EGO do a pretty good job of shooting to the side instead of directly in front of you. But I agree, if the wind isn't right you get a face full of snow. To be fair, I've had regular snow blowers fill my face with snow too.

do you have any fire hydrants in your area? can that power shovel be used to clear snow piled up around a fire hydrant, like in this video kzfaq.info/get/bejne/d5qDaZedtZ6cqHU.html
@TheLawnEngineer 8 ай бұрын
I do have a fire hydrant in my front yard. I will test and fill as soon as we get some more snow. I did a little poking around in a snow bank and it did move it. I think the key will be getting to it before it turns to ice.

@@TheLawnEngineerya, i'm just wondering if that power shovel would make it easier or if it would work at all. I've looked for videos of that but I haven't found any. I'm seeing local TV news stations putting out public service messages asking people to clear snow from fire hydrants and I wondered if a power shovel would make it easier. Also, I've asked this question on several other power shovel videos and they all say the same thing, "I don't know, I never tried it" hahahahahaha
