In this video, myself, The Lawn Guy, Mike Day GM, Gregg Francis & Simon all attended an Ego press day event where we were shown more into Challenge 2025 and what the Ego products can provide. In this video here are the highlights.
Great video, cool to see some new toys
Thanks mate ! Was a great day !
Great video Sam, great to meet you too.
Thank you very much Greg! I hope you have a fantastic season pal 🙌🏽
A good question you asked about area reduction when collecting the cuttings. At the moment I think this is the weakest thing about battery power. Any form of weight carried slaughters the run time. That may be why, as yet, they haven't put rollers on battery mowers. But, enough of the negatives, battery has come on leaps and bounds over the past couple of years and I think this hurdle will soon be a thing of the past. Glad you completed that hedge reduction job in one piece. Nice vid too.
Definitely ! Such an important stat! Thank you Derek. They do the rollers for their Domestic 42cm & 47cm, which stripe Well! Apparently about 1 hour run time out of a 7.5amp. I do agree though, there is improvements to be made but they are at a good level.
If you're looking at rollers the Allett range of cylinder Mowers use the Ego motors. There isn't a rotary combo that I'm aware of yet but another brand that I have my eyes on is AS Motors from Germany.
Good video mate. Good bunch of lads there too.
Thank you mate ! Yeah it was brilliant to meet the other lads that were there as well as the EGO team, hopefully get to SALTEX this year and meet some more in the community 🙌🏽🔋
@@JayRockGroundsMaintenance saltex is great mate. Really friendly atmosphere and always meet someone you know from media.
@@scottellwoodgardening287 yeah I think that’s what it would be half about, as much for the machines but netting & networking too! Hopefully I see you down there mate 😄
@@JayRockGroundsMaintenance I’m first in and last out mate 🙈
@@scottellwoodgardening287 I’ll quite possibly join you with that one then mate !🤣 take care Scott 💪🏽
Great video Sam. Awesome content!
Cheers mate ! Really appreciate it 😄🌱
Very professionally done Sam well done, not sure who the “lawn care guy” is though 😉
Thank you very much mate ! I have no idea what you mean 👀 this video has been uploading since this morning ! Apologies pal. Thank you very much for the third party interview also, really appreciate it !🌱
@@JayRockGroundsMaintenance I told you vidz over 9mins take forever lol
@@TheLawnGuy definitely mate ! Your right there 😂 sat in Costa for about 5 hours so that never helped with the signal 😂
Beautiful weather that day 👌😎
Really fortunate mark ! Absolutely threw it down the day after !
So far haven’t seen any cylinder battery powered mowers, did they mention anything about reasons behind this? Great video though Sam and I think a lot of home gardeners like me are looking to switch so definitely a topic that needs more attention
Allett mowers do a battery cylinder called the Liberty, and then they have brung one out last year called the Stirling which uses EGOs battery system. Definitely Allan, even on the commercial side it works brilliant, homeowner it could definitely do everything !
That’s great to know Sam, I hadn’t seen that so will start looking around for one. I’m hoping to switch soon
Outside of the climate agenda, the increase in fuel costs alone make the transition to battery a no brainer at this stage
I agree pal, it seems like there is more and more reasons to switch! Especially since they are up to scratch for 90% of the jobs we do🔋
@@JayRockGroundsMaintenance you ever used the ego chainsaw mate? I was contemplating picking one up but on the fence with it
@@BottleBrookGardens I used their newest one at this event that was in the video, 16” bar, performed really well! CS1610E was the model.
It's the cost batteries and would use batteries for light trimming jobs. Be no good for doing heavy duty jobs. Got be heavy duty before and more start be more powerful. Still use 2 stroke machines and four stroke machines. I need be convinced about operating batteries machines.
Hi Darren I totally see where your coming from and there is no doubt that 2&4 stroke professional machines are more powerful, but I honestly think battery is still powerful enough.
If you have a moment check my last video out, 70m or so of a beach hedge reduced by around 5-7ft using battery only. I think they are more capable than people think. Plus with the fuel prices, spend 1 year of fuel prices upfront and you’ll get 3 years+ with the batteries.
