You had the flat tube on the Stihl wben doing wrist stress test. Huge difference between round tube and flat tube.
The gloves say everything! 😂
I have the STIHL BG86 CE I use the flat tube more. Because it’s just better for wet leafs and tree limbs.
I was looking for a lightweight blower for my deck. th-cam.com/users/postUgkxgioZQl3J5wPGAeDINzbieKbT5qomSEx3 There are some huge trees around my house and the leaves and pods drop all over my deck. Having to move furniture around to sweep has become too big a chore. This blower was the answer. It is light enough for this 70yr old lady and powerful enough to blow all the tree droppings off my rather large deck. Thank you B&D. Be aware the cord is not included. I use a 3 prong outdoor cord 25' cord for my 12' x 20' deck. The cord retainer works very well, but don't try to pass the plug through it. That is NOT how it works. You just have to loop the cord and it works great. One of my best purchases. Very happy.
You said you where 60 in another post on another channel🤔
I got me the pb just at the beginning of the mouth and my god the best blower I've ever used sthil take a seat
Love Stihl tools but the 86 is not that great of a blower, excellent vac though! Also have a 525BX and a Makita BHX2501, both are fantastic blowers but I would give the edge to the 525BX just. Bang for the buck, the Makita is a great choice for a smaller budget!!
Thanks man. I am getting PB2620
I've had an echo pb 2520 for 3 years and no problems
@@leadnsteel1428 I love echo, but since I have my edger and lawnmower Husqvarna, I wanted stay in the brand
Echo gloves? A true fan indeed.
And X series jacket. Not weighted towards Echo at all, huh?
@@waltheisenberg7626 Ohhhh my...... here come the stihlies. They would take a bullet for their $1000 over rated pos
Honestly ive had 2 of each of the stihl and echo blowers shown here, i really like the echo but both are very close. I wanted to like the stihl , as i love stihl chainsaws...(but even echo makes a good chainaw as well), but power wise the echo out performs the stihl slightly but noticeably nonetheless. Both were extremely reliable, the stihl i will say is more comfortable in hand and less bulky. Being i am a roofer, this was a huge benefit, but im saying overall, the echo ,even though more bulky, the bulkiness seems to add strength and durability to the blower, but 100 percent you cant go wrong w either. Husky i cant speak on however their chainsaws have felt cheaper than echoes and steal and had rattly plastic parts, that's my experience with them. If you want power and durability go with the echo if you want lightweight and comfort go with stihl!
the stihl is my favorite and i own it
Do you have the wrong end on the stihl for max blowing power.. or else it would’ve out blew all of them, try using the open end “tip” ..
The blowing power was done with the open nozzle, so the 3 of them had the round nozzle. :)
Ben Gallet not a bit... I've owned the bg86 and 525... 525 blows it away
It's unfair wrist test to test the stihl with the narrow nozzle on, that creates a lot more blow and its going to have more pushback when hung on a string. Up until that point very good. I cannot see why you would change unless you are biased against the stihl.
@@6900pilot I've had the stihl 86, husky 525 currently running along with the new echo 2620. The stihl is trash
Hahaha!! Right!!! I think he cheated 😆.
Yeah rigghhttt. With your echo gloves. 😁 . But seriously, I do like echo. Just bought a stihl though. Echo is also good for lefty’s. 👍
Great review, thank you for the technical info!!
You are welcome.
Just The Video I Was Looking For. Thanks 👍👍
I love my 2620. Things a beast
Your wrist test is not using the same parameters...Echo blower has round tube, Stihl has the flattened tube for higher velocity, which in turn would produce more 'wrist force' per your test string parameter!
Hi Sam, thank you for your comment. The round or Flat nozzle will not make any difference on the Stihl nor Husqvarna nor Echo. The fact that the nozzle isn't in line with the handle on the Stihl creates the stress on the wrist.
It's not about the magnitute of the force, but the direction of the force
I can see where having the blower tube off set from the handle would produce a moment (twisting force) around a fixed point, which would be where one holds it...hand/wrist! However, I think your test may be more indicative of shoulder stress rather than wrist stress b/c in your test set up...w/ the string simulating one's arm, the fixed point represents the shoulder. I may be splitting hairs here and the point is probably moot b/c whatever the force is...it seems to be negligible.
I recently purchased the Echo PB-2620 b/c it was $50 less costly than the Stihl BG-86, but I returned it. One thing that I did notice about the Echo was that the blower tube seemed to be off set from the handle (it had the straight tube as opposed to the PB-2520 curved tube). The reason I returned it was that I didn't feel it ran that well, seemed to need a carburetor adjustment out of the box...just didn't seem to have adequate power.
I used to own a Stihl BG-86 and was very pleased w/ it. However, once it finally wore out...I purchased a backpack blower. Being used to the power of a backpack blower now, my expectations of any had held blower are probably going to result in disappointment! LOL
But, I like the convenience of a hand held blower for quick jobs like my garage, side walk, or back deck!
Thank you for the video comparison...you do a nice job w/ it!
@@JanMaesOutdoorTraining I believe your reply to Sam Wimpy shows your bias towards Echo. The round or flat nozzles DO make a difference! According to the PB-2620 owner's manual, the max air speed with the round nozzle is 172 mph and increases to 180 mph with the flat nozzle. In the Stihl owner's manual for the BG 86, it states the air velocity for the round nozzle is 154 mph and to 190 mph with the flat nozzle. On Husqvarna's website under product specifications for the 525BX, it states the air speed is 157 mph using the round nozzle and increases to 192 mph with the flat nozzle.
Also echo pb-2620 doesn’t come with crooked tubes. Pb-2520 does. ?
Great video!
I need a drop test though. Drop each of them off the roof of a house, approximately 15' should do it, and see which one still works.
Pretty sure it would be the Stihl.
That's been my experience in the past.
Stihl is the only manufacturer that holds up to the kind of abuse that I put on my tools. In that regard, I save money by staying true to Stihl. I've got a shed full of broken Echo and Husqvarna tools.
😂😂🤣🤣 i hear ya
Echo is the choice for commercial use. it has 5yr consumer warranty. Also, the plastic end of tube is held by metal, unlike stihl all plastic tube construction
flat tube on the Stihl when doing wrist stress test so not fair test. i have the same bg86 and know there is a difference between the flat and round tube and makes a difference blowing force
Which is better flat or round?
I’ve had the 525bx and Bg86. The Stihl is an absolute joke compared to the husqvarna. Not sure on the echo but it can’t be weaker than the Stihl. I’d get both over the Stihl. Especially the 525bx, light and really powerful
I’ve not been happy with the bg 86
Its just a very dated and underpowered machine unfortunately @@parkerk7018
I will say the Echo is a "beast" because I'm a huge fan of originality. I have an older one and would like to pick up another while they are legal.
Is that music necessary? Omg
Stihl bg 85 is a great one
The 2620 does not come with the offset pipe you added that, so wrist stress test is unfair.I think they’d be about equal. P S. Maybe it was at the time of the video but the 2022 version has a straight pipe.
US model has the straight pipe. Outside the US it has the curved pipe shown in this video. Been that way 4+ years
That's so weird. I noticed the offset pipe too. @@WisconsinEric
@@DAS-Videos My PB 2620 has the straight pipe and I have no issues with wrist stress, and I am more than happy with its performance.
I am trying to decide between the PB 2620 and the PB 2520 which is about 50$ less.@@WisconsinEric
@@DAS-Videos The EPA hour rating on the 2520 is only 50hrs vs the 2620's 300hrs. The 2620 has a chrome plated cylinder and piston as well as a second piston ring vs the 2520's single piston ring with no cylinder plating. I just finished my first full season with my PB 2620 and I could not be any happier with it. It exceeded all my expectations. I also bought an Echo SRM 2320T trimmer as it is Echo's least expensive trimmer with a chrome plated cylinder and 300hr rating.
great video - nice tests
In my experience in the field, the Husky wins hands down!!! Use my 86 as a vac only!
Nice video.
Thanks
so wonderful beautiful video friend i love it see so nice
The Echo Blower Is The Winner😉
Nice movie bro!
Thanks! :)
Huh i'm surprised, my bg 86 starts on 2 pulls (cold)
Nice review
Thank you
STIHL all the way
Husqvarna all day
Lol that stihl has auto choke release this shows what you need to know about this guy lol
Tests were flawed and not easy to follow.
Echo n1 anche i decespugliatori
Anoying background music
ego 765 cfm would walk all these 😂
And last 10 minutes in turbo mode...
Give me gas any day.
10 minutes at best. I have one of the egos and it is powerful but dies in about 5 to 8 mins with the supplied battery @@co1003
