I am thinking more like the 3 or 4 AM driveway clears where I need to get to work so I am out early getting rid of snow. I got a big property and long driveway that usually takes well over an hour with just a plow going up and down hills on my mower. Luckily I don't have many neighbours that complain at 4 am lol

Fun video! Just bought this 2-stage EGO snowblower for some Pennsylvania snow! Last year I used the small EGO to clear a lot of plowed piles at the end of the driveway. The snow was twice as high as the little snowblower, but it got the job done. Amazing how they power through the snow on battery power! It is definitely convenient to have a second set of batteries. These are great snowblowers for the pre-teen or wife to operate with ease. Looking forward to the next big snow!

Now this is a real snowblower test! The best part is when you used the snowblower to clear that thick pile of snow by the entrance of your driveway. That is the test of a snowblower IMO and that's where these battery powered blowers really should seek to improve on for future reference. I think the EGO held up to it just fine and it makes me hopeful that we will see even more improvements in the years to come!

I know this is a year later, but, I went into Lowes just prior to this year's first snow storm. Walked in and thought I saw an Ego box and headed for it. Well it was a Green works power washer. Yes in January Lowe's puts out spring stuff. Long story short, the wife spotted a floor model of the Ego single stage snow blower. We inquired about it and understand they had no other snow blowers. They told me a man was very interested in it but it didn't come with batteries. My guess is he was a first time Ego buyer and had no batteries. So Lowe's offered it to me at half price. From $469 to $235. That thing threw snow 40 feet easily. Another item to my Ego collection. Yes I am an Ego maniac. Love the products. Never been disappointed.

This hurts. I purchased a new two-stage last year and went with an ICE engine because the only cordless ones I could find were single stage.

My snow blower is my last ICE engine in my lawn/garden arsenal. Anyone want to buy a Toro gas two-stage used one year? LOL Great video Stanley!

More cfm would be nice but it especially needs more MPH.

*Leaves bill at neighbors house that says, “No need to pay me just LIKE, SUBSCRIBE, AND RING THAT NOTIFICATION BELL!!”* 😂😂😂 Honestly man I love the videos. They’re informative and cover mostly all of the bases! I was curious on weight and you talked about that in the beginning with battery life and weight of the augers but I am interested in if it has the weight on the drive wheels *important* that way it can push through the bigger stuff like a gas snow blower. Because without the drive through the thick stuff it is essentially a heavier single stage. And with all of the metal in the front some companies make the mistake of not putting enough weight on the rear end which makes the drive wheels just spin if you’re not using tracks. But, then you pushed right on through what the roof dumped off and it seemed to do well!
