Only 650 cfm? Ego has a hand held that has 765 cfm. And cat has a handheld that has an 800cfm. A backpack blower needs to be at least 900 to 1100 cfm to take on all the many usiful tasks of a backpack blower. Maybe mx will be the battery platform strong enough to make a gas equivalent blower.
So... i stead of carrying an easily refillable fuel tank, I carry a battery that takes how long to charge? And weighs how much compared to gas? Wow, we really are getting dumber faster every day.
The cost of gas/oil/plugs/maintenance savings over the course of years for professionals makes this a real option. Also they charge to 80% in 15 minutes. So if you have 4 batteries, you'll never run out
@@XoarsItll level out in a few months and after that the rest is straight profit. These batteries are about 0.25 kWh and a kWh is about $0.20 from the grid so it costs $0.05 per battery to full charge x 4 is $0.20. A full tank of gas on a backpack usually runs you about 35-40 mins straight full throttle while the backpack likely does 25 and a full tank is about 50-70 oz which is around $2-2.50 per tank with oil so it’s about 10x cheaper to run and less fumes and hassle. As long as it doesn’t break down, it will definitely be better than gas especially once they really extend runtime and start to use pouch cells which is when battery will kill gas in both power and runtime.
A 12Ah Battery is 250 bucks while you need at least 2 or optional four of this. They are more or less dead after 1000 charges by the Super chargers. 1000 charges by daily use this about 3 years of professionelle use. I will say maybe after using more powertools they are desd in 2 years. You really tell me that you use like 1000 bucks on maintaince, gasoline and oil on a blower in 2 to 3 years? The other point is, anybody that owned a moped as a Teenager can repair and maintaince an 10 to 15 year old gasoline blower and you will most likley find spare parts the next 15 to 20 years even in other Models. That Milwaukee blower is trash after warrnty.
I want the back pack blower now
This should of been mx fuel. And even then the run time isn’t enough to justify
Depends on how you use it.
Ryobi ahead of the game

CFM isn’t everything. It’s a combination of both mph and CFM to make up newtons of force which should be the real measure
@@electric6877 how many newton's does the the milwaukee 650cfm backpack blower have vs ego 800cfm backpack model?
Stihl makes a nice back pack blower.
When when I asked, when is it available?
@@2323shaq Should be available late March/Early April. I will be doing an unboxing on my channel in the next couple of weeks. God Bless!
I’m left handed
And the difference is?
