Worth an upgrade? - New Milwaukee Heated Jacket (M1052-21)
Heated clothing has come a long way over the past few years. I reviewed the original Milwaukee heated jacket, and thought it was ok. Now, Milwaukee just released their Hexon Technology...claiming their heated gear will heat up hotter, faster and last longer.

The Best Soil Test, Part 1: How to take a soil sample / Test methodology
I'm not buying the 800CFM stats without some proof. Everyone is trying to out-CFM the competition. Given that they're all using variations on the same motors, all they're doing is trading flow vs pressure vs rpm vs battery life. They all have the same physics. Pick whichever is most important to you and run with it.
Having run 1000 + CFM gas backpacks, I can definitely say this feels close to 800, it's got a kick similar to the big boys.
@@TurfandStem Not disagreeing with that, but what you're feeling is a mix of static pressure and flow, not pure CFM.
I thought you said this thing was powerful? I want legit a JET TURBINE on my back!
I have one and have used it A LOT pruning Malus Fusca branches. Hard wood. These made the work easy, and I do a lot of pruning and battery life is awesome. So happy I bought these.
What a great review, thank you. Cheers.
Thanks, appreciate it. Hope it helped!
Thank you so much for making this video. I'm a 65 year old lady and realized I never learned how to take care of garden tools. You are a blessing.
Thanks! Just remember, keep them clean, dry, sharp and oiled!
I have the OG-OG one…when they still only came in red.
That's awesome. I bought the hooded sweatshirt first, liked it, then bought the jacket.
What setting did you use on your lesco spreader to spread your 46-0-0?
At this point, I can usually eyeball the prill size, so I don't usually go by numbers...but I think it was around 10. It will vary based on the fert manufacturer.
Looks like they copied echo 9010 😂 didn't even try lol.
No way, completely different.
What about for heavy equipment, I work construction 🦺 ima operator I run scrapers 😅
Sorry, only used them for landscaping so couldn't tell ya.
that post be to prune not to cut dry wood like that
Just to equally compare cutting ability.
Why would they put a computer carburator on a leaf blower. That's a major deal breaker. I just bought 3 echo 9010's for my company. I was leaning toward red max or echo. Then seen the computer crap on the red max. Turned away, went and bought echos and don't regret it one bit they are bad ass blowers
Dunno, but mines been running perfect.
@TurfandStem yea. Until they don't! Hopefully you won't have any problems. They ain't cheap these days!
As long as a mechanical carb u can fix it anytime. With parts from after marker if factory parts arent available.Computer controlled means u only can fix through propriety parts.
I got my father this for Xmas I was very impressed with the power
Awesome gift!
Awesome, thanks for the non-bias review. Our Canadian dollar does not go very far anymore! I always try to buy Canadian products first as I support our country, but the USA is guaranteed to be my next go to when I am shopping. We at some times are forced to buy elsewhere for our products sometimes. Thanks again, great video!
Maybe we should start the All-Canadian Sharper?
@@TurfandStem You definitly would get buyers. There are so few skilled blade sharpeners here !
Bought one about 4 months ago. I love it. Replaced a stihl 800 . When I bought mine you could buy 3 cans of fuel and the warranty went from 3 to 5 years. Obviously Redmax backs there products.
How did you get 5 years?
Ran three cans of there redmax can fuel through it to start with. Gives you two extra years on the warranty. Fuel was 27 dollars. Not a hard decision.
Dealer stapled the receipt for the fuel onto the bill of sale so I would have proof.
I couldn't find anything on this?!
@@TurfandStem Well might want to ask a dealer about it. Or I guess it could have been the dealer. Lagrange Georgia. Souther cart service is the dealer. I rode almost 100 miles to the dealer. One of the few at my time of purchase that had any in stock. It has shortened my leave cleanup time by 30 percent.
I just bought one of the knock off’s from Amazon. I didn’t even know there was an American one for $200+. I will say that you need to get some red Loctite to secure the bolts before you get started or they just loosen up. Other than that I think the build quality is good enough for the $50 I paid for it. I also got one of the magnetic balancers “DPHXF Lawn Mower Blade Balancer” that you mount on the wall for another $25 which is well worth the money. Again it was a bit loose and needed tightening and loctite applied.
Would be nice to have a power backpack to connect to it to run a bit longer.
Yeah a couple of manufacturers have done that. As batteries get heavier and more powerful it's a natural progression.
I have owned the Yellow Hornet blade sharpener for 6 or more years. It does a good job for me. I was thinking about buying one of those knock offs and trying that.
They work well. Basically the same as the Yellow Hornet, except you're moving the grinder and the blade is staying still.
Enhulk Pro 930 CFM 200MPH very nice Blower way more powerful than whats on the market till date even beats the Kress.
Looks very similar to Ego...I'm always hesitant on just accepting the stats from the companies though, we need to Project Farm them and put them head to head!
@@TurfandStem Agree look forward to that video
Use loppers for the big stuff
I've been using Milwaukee's M12 mini-hatchet/ chainsaw more for the bigger stuff.
Just got one, used it today for the first time. The battery, which was fully charged, died in 10-15 minutes
Yeah I get about 20 minutes. If I need more than that I'm putting on the Red Max.
mine definitely lasted more than "10-15 minutes" and i didn't run out of charge. were you on boost mode the whole time?
I had no idea that Husqvarna bought Redmax. That’s a deal breaker for me. My Stihl BR800X has been wonderful for the last 4-5 years. I love the side starter
Side starting is pretty sweet. I LOVE Husqvarna equipment though! Two garden tractors, 3 leaf blowers, etc....all have done well for me.
Thanks for the video. I've been shopping for a sharpener. It's obious they stole the idea. I'll be buying the All American. Keep as much money in USA as possible. ua-cam.com/video/-iuTlGrqQRE/v-deo.html
100% legit reason to buy the All American.
This has 3x the cfm of the Husqvarna 145bt I have!
Yes...the power is surprising. Unless I brace myself it will start turning me around!
100% worth it to me. Recently pruned a hedge that hadn't been trimmed or maintained properly in 30+ years. Hand pruners, lopers or a hand saw would have taken a lot longer and caused a lot of hand/elbow pain the next day. I don't feel old but my carpal tunnel and tendonitis are making a strong argument. Plus I bought it during a special savings offer and got it for "free" when buying a two pack of M12 5Ah HO batteries.
Yes, I think you're probably the target audience for this tool. Someone who just makes a few cuts won't benefit, but if you have hand/arm pain or are a professional, it's perfect.
I recently bought the amazon "knock off" of the all american and its great!! easy to use etc...What Man that sharpens his own blades does not have a grinder or 10? lol.....$$200/250...is crazy..I did mine on a bench top sander with a lil jig I made until now.... its safer when that blade is SECURE!! one tilt of that blade and it could be ripped away from your hands...just food for thought...
Yes, I was an OG on the "knock-off" train! They're great, but if you're doing a lot of blades, having this will take a little time off. You'd be surprised how many people don't have a basic set of tools, never mind a grinder!
@@TurfandStem 🤣
7:10 We all know those landscape guys don’t sharpen their blades nearly enough let alone every day or two. That’s why we are here listening to your advice
If you're mowing for 9+ hours, especially during the fall, they probably need a little attention!
Over priced junk
So...Echo 9010 then?
@ nope I was talking about the redmax yanno the blower that needs a skinner tip to have more power than the echo and costs 150 dollars more for no reason
Very nice blower its a shame so many towns and states are banning gas blowers now and making our work more difficult than it has to be the electrical ones dont cut it they dont have the power let alone the run time to complete a big job like cleaning a park , hopefully they see the error of their ways and revert their decisions
I love my battery tools, just when it comes to leaf blowers, they're not quite there yet. Once they equal, or surpass the power of gas, then I'll switch. I do love the idea of not having to clean carbs, winterize, change belts, etc., in the future.
Is 26.5 lbs with fuel or without ?
I believe it's dry weight.
I’m about a dozen tanks through mine now. It’s definitely crazy on power coming from a 8550. Only complaints so far is straps I feel they cheaped out on. They are always getting twisted putting it on and the throttle seems touchy and sometimes unless at full rpm seems like it has slight hesitation holding a lower power position.
I'm about 6 with no issues so far...
My red max 7500 straps do the same thing, they always getting twisted.
413 shoutout Umass turf grad 1998 Golf course builder/pga lpga tournament prep experience. Lawn looks good
What is your definition of spoon feeding? You just applied approximately .5lbs of N
Lol, ladles are considered spoons.
Very nice 413 shout out.gotta keep it clean ,remove.all.them leaves😂
Now they have one that even comes with a knock off expensive magnetic balancer for $66
I know!!! Now I feel ripped off buying just the sharpener at $60.
Wow I shop at valley Green in Holyoke also Jeremy Brown is one of the most knowledgeable turf guys in the industry but I don't get my fall high nitrogen fertilizer there because I prefer Imodium sulfate and they do not carry it in granular form.. Lowe's in Hadley for that
Yes! Valley Green is great, hopefully they don't change too much during the transition. Bought many supplies from Holyoke and Charlton. Lowe's in Hadley is having a deal on fertilizer, some of the bags are on clearance...not worth it just yet but if they drop another clearance level like they usually do, it will be worth it then! Hadley Lowe's usually has the better selection out of any big box store.
My 9010 has run great since day one (more than a year). Unless something changes, dont see switching up. It is pretty though. More refined lines than Echo.
Probably not much of an upgrade from 9010 to ebz9000.
@@TurfandStemis it a noticeable difference in leaf push?
Great for endless cuts with creaky fingers. Has saved us time and more cleaning up Hurricane debris. Curious about blade replacement reported issues. QUESTION: Any thoughts on sharpening? Thx for review.
Thanks! I just sharpen like I do regular shears with a honning tool.
to the redmax 9000 owners like myself all of them either bog from going low to medium power or stall i talked to dealer he said yes that is a common issue he said the computer carb isn't sure if your going to low power or higher power so the computer chip gets confused on what you want for power and he said nothing you can do for it. He said he talked to the rep for redmax and they know about it and said nothing can be done. Wish I didn't sell off my echo 9010s
I reached out to Husqvarna to try to get an official answer. I haven't had any issues with mine so far.
That’s actually stupid, if they’ve been actually testing them they would’ve came across the issue too, but instead they put them on the market to sell not knowing how to fix the issue, I mean come on basically $900 after tax I expected it to run extremely well for a couple years no problems, but instead 3 weeks later and at 29 hours I’m having these issues on mine as well. I actually couldn’t get mine to run at all for 2 days finally got it to actually work this past week, and luckily when it was down the 2 days my 2 and a half year old echo 9010 stepped in
@@ernieharlin8263 yea my dealer thinks that is why husky didn't put their out yet because he figures that they are trying to see if issues they do have a soft tube that compacts in but when running the tube goes back full. I wish they would take care of stuff no wonder why so many have dropped selling redmax
@ yea hopefully the figure that out, I can deal with tube kinking as long as it last, but the autotune carburetor needs a lot more work
@@ernieharlin8263 100 percent agree with you
Mine runs so poorly, it’s new and I am very disappointed. Powerful when running properly, no question. Starts right up, but transitions from high to low power or low to high very rough, and today it stalled.
What part of the country? At altitude?
@ NJ
Cause it’s a piece of junk stick with the echo 9010 better quality
I highly recommend always using the correct fuel-oil mixture, as it’s crucial for the performance of your RedMax EBZ9000. Avoid pre-mixed fuel cans, as they may not meet the specific needs of your machine. Ideally, use alkylate fuel, like the orange containers from Stihl or Husqvarna's fuel. Even better, go for the grey jugs from Stihl or another alkylate fuel and mix it with high-quality oil from Echo, Husqvarna, or, for the best results, Amsoil's Saber oil. Check the carb for any leaks too / seals. Check and / or clean the sprak plug too. Good luck.
Did you buy it from a licensed dealer? It might have the idle screw out of adjustment. Also where I’m at I live at 6,500 feet in altitude so sometimes the carbs aren’t adjusted to the higher elevation. Something to consider.
Yes he never say nothing about run time because sucks .. Yess I have the strongest leaf blower but last5 minutes (sarcastic)
This is actually the strongest! ua-cam.com/video/OCexjTLw2FY/v-deo.html
I use this in my business I replaced my echo pb9010t. The redmax ebz9000 is the best I love it
@@Provenblueprint ok thanks I'm going to take it back in let them plug it up to try in see if they can fix it
Is is a noticeable difference in pushing leaves?
@@3r8mo not really to me they are really close in moving leaves.but to me it's about the comfortability doing it that's why I like the 9000 it does have a little more power but not that much noticeable.so if you have a 9010 or thinking about getting one over the other.i will say the 9010 is the winner for the power to dollar ratio.but if you don't care about the money then the 9000 is a better filling machine when using for awhile.
@@3r8mo huge difference
Did you notice a hesitation when you first start up and you try to use it it seems like it hesitate to kick up I think something might be wrong with mine
Haven't noticed it yet but my old Husqvarna took a little while to get warmed up. Wonder if it's the auto choke?
@TurfandStem maybe I'm going to take mine back to have them look at it
No the same thing happens to me, wait for it to warm up for 2-3 min- when you first start blowing just go full throttle for a few seconds then again for a few seconds it warms up all the way and runs fine
@jimmyf1312 yes this is my problem I think that should happen the first time of the day it get that but if I like it sit for only 15 minutes it's does that same thing like it needs to warm up
@@henrythompson5624 same. It’s probably something to do with the auto tune carb system. It seems normal but if you talk to the dealer let me know
Enhulk 930 cfm 200 mph is top
Wonder what the newtons are. How reliable are those stats?
How much 46-0-0 would you recommend applying? 1lb per 1000
Little by little. I would do several smaller apps over the next several weeks rather than 1 big 1. 46% can burn the grass, so take it easy and apply lightly!
@@TurfandStem Only problem is it's been pretty dry in the Mid Atlantic past few weeks
So you put the 17-3-2 four weeks after seeding? And you applied starter fertilizer when you seeded correct? Then in another 4 weeks you will apply what? Thanks
Tremendous vid
Thank you!!!
You never tried United seeds company?
Not yet, if I do a renovation I'll look into other companies, but since my last reno used JG, I'll stick with them for the near future.
As you know we had a pretty warm fall here in Iowa and overseeding in September would of just lead to dead dry grass seed. Now that it's starting to cool off, If I plant grass seed and get it germinated and coming up about and inch, will it make it thru the winter or is it just a waste of time and money?
Any frosts in the future? When do you historically get the first frost? You'll want it sprouted at least 4 weeks before
Thank you
