If you happen to have Ego tools (and batteries), their most powerful leaf blower is even stronger.

The Ego tools stuff are pretty awesome! I have the weed eater, so does my neighbor, and he also bought their chainsaw last year. I wouldn't hesitate to buy one myself if necessary. My buddy has the snowblower up at his mountain cabin, and I used it once on a trip up there to clear 18" off the uphill driveway. I was quite impressed. He also has their lawnmower and loves it. If my 22-year-old honda mower ever dies, the Ego will be a strong contender for the replacement.

I've been using a brushless 80v Greenworks blower (and 18" chain saw) for a few years. I had to replace the blower, not the battery, under warranty after two years of heavy use.

I've been very pleased with it overall.

At first they replaced the unit with the "new and improved" version which I found unacceptable...but they eventually got me the same version I had (below) after a few months and took the other replacement back. That was pretty cool of them, I have to say...all at no cost to me.

The first folks I spoke to for the warranty service were in Mooresville, NC. Who else do we know there? I just can't recall...

Costco purchases? They have a ton of the Greenworks stuff in the store this year, quite a bit more than in years past.
 
I have a bunch of the Ego tools (chainsaw, polesaw, leaf blower, hedge trimmer, weed whip). They are pretty good. I love the chainsaw, it doesn’t have quite the grunt of a good gas one but not having to deal with 2 stroke engines (and keeping multiple ratios of oil and gas fuel or having to premix is great). I also appreciate the reduction in both noise and exhaust pollution.

We are still struggling scaling up the magna cut heat treat...

They're making some modifications so the production oven next week and we should have it, in scale.

This has been a process. But I think we're very close.
 
Random thoughts;

When I signed up for my first gym membership at about 14, I told the owner I wanted to add ~20lbs of muscle. The owner said, next time you're at the grocery store, pick up a 1lb steak. Now think of taping 20 of those on your chest, arms, legs, and visualize that. It's quite a bit.

Apparently, this guy couldn't visualize it 🤣🤣🤣

2nd random thought. "I wonder how fast he could run, if we let a bunch of pitbulls loose?" 😅
