![[EGO vs RYOBI] BEST DUAL BLADE BATTERY LAWN MOWER - Review 2021](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/9iHbgc8ikVw/mqdefault.jpg)
Thank you for your review. I will be purchasing an Ego. Great Job!
Great video. Very informative. Answers questions people would probably wonder about.
This video was really interesting to watch and I don’t even have a lawn to mow! Thanks for keeping SE’s football field cut. 😊
Any time shawty
If you are cutting high stuff, should always start at max height and drop down on a second cut. Should also put the "side" chute on to prevent clogging. Can do a final 3rd mulch pass if you want. For normal mowing too, should never cut more than 2/3 of the mowers width, so do go wheel to previous wheel track. I usually do 50/50, line up the center of the mower with the previous wheel pass.
Samezies
Great review !!!
I've watched many and yours is the only one that addresses the issue with trying to pull the mowers backwards (starts at 22:50) after releasing the self propelled lever. This is an issue with my current gas powered mower and it drives me crazy. That alone will swing me to the Ryobi.
Thanks !
Glad I could provide some clarity!
Great review! I have a bunch of Ryobi power tools and have been wondering if I want to swap my Ego out with a Ryobi mower and just have Ryobi batteries ... nope, keeping the Ego after seeing this video. This is my 2nd year using the mulching blades for Fall leaves, too - used to bag about 15 to 20 bags of leaves a year, but since using the mulching blade I've just mulched them on my yard.
I agree with several comments - in tall grass, always start with discharge, and mulch the shorter grass on a 2nd cut.
I agree
That’s my dawg!! Great video
You already know
I have been waiting a long time to see someone compare these two
Your wait is over!
I love my ego products. I have the select cut and was disappointed because they came out with the select cut xp literally the next year but oh well. I also have their hedge trimmer, power load weed trimmer, 650cfm leaf blower, and I just picked up their new auger propelled snow blower last week. Just need some snow to test that bad boy out. I have no regrets investing in the ego line.
Thank you for doing this video! I was leaning Ryobi but guess not so much
Glad it was helpful!
I like the tough test, I think most mowers will cut well if one was to follow all the proper cutting techniques posted. This test shows what to expect should you let your grass overgrow, mower performance in extreme conditions.
Very good review thanks for sharing
Phenomenal review!!
Thanks so much!
Thank you Mon Tod. Wish I saw this before I bought the Ryobi.
No worries! Ryobi is still by no means bad though.
Really enjoyed your research and video
Thank you!
Even got started I was busting a move with a beatboxing😂.. now let's get to the review
Landscaper abandoned me so I got the Ego as I already had some of their stuff. Need self-propelled because of steep slopes. It works great and is fun to use. Very easy to dial the speed up and down as needed. Good review!
Sorry that sucks but I'm glad it worked out! Thanks for watching!
Great comparo...thanks
Thanks.
I was sold on Ego at the very beginning. As a tall person seeing the higher handle height, my back was yelling Ego.
Nice! I'm not super tall, 6'1", but the height adjustments are nice
I always wondered about this! One of these two will most likely be my next lawn mower...although I'd prefer a 28 to 30" walk behind version...
I hope it was helpful
Ryobi and Toro have 30 inch push mowers coming out Spring 2023. I was hoping Ego would release one, but no news.
@danyeo that's good to know... it seems EGO is a better brand to me but geesh are they slow with developing stuff. Maybe that's why they seem like a better product due to the process used to get stuff out the door.?
Your video has shown me a couple of things that videos from others have not shown me. I think that I would prefer the shorter handle of the Ryobi when I was mowing, it seems that the EGO handle would put me too far back from the mower - too bad that the length is not adjustable.. Also I like the looks of the Ryobi handle better, it looks more comfortable than the EGO handle. Nice job presenting this info, thanks for sharing.
My Ego mower is a push mower, not the self-propelled model but it has a very comfortable handle.
Great Job! Thank You.❤. 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 5 Stars
Nice job on the review! I just replaced my only six year-old Honda HRX217 with a select cut Ego and could not be happier. The cut of the Ego is superior to the Honda. I wish the battery technology had been what it is today when I bought the Honda. I can’t see ever going back to gas.
Yeah, it's pretty dang nice! Thanks for watching!
Hey, man! Dropping in a year later to ask: Are you still happy? I'm looking at doing the same trade but from my HRX537 (Which I think is the same machine just in CM instead of Inches).
I have about 800SqM (8600 SqFt) of lawn. How much battery are you using for a regular weekly mow?
Yes, heading into my third season with it and still very happy with the EGO mower!
I mow roughly 12,000 square feet. You would be close to using up the 10.0 AH battery that my mower came with as I either have to take a break and recharge or grab my blower battery yo finish, but I think (?) the new ones come with a 12.0 AH now.
@@robinkarlsten4952 ^^^
Reluctantly clicked on this hoping the Ego would 'win' since I just bought one, but given I have a bunch of other Ego tools and batteries, I would have gone with it anyway. Have only used it twice, but find the cut very nice, and it does at least as well as my HRR216 Honda but is much easier to maneuver. I do find I can't do my entire yard with the 7.5 battery, but I can finish up with one of my 5amp batteries. One of the best things about going electric is that I will mow my yard more frequently (I'm retired and have the time) because I don't have to worry about using up the gas and also it's just easier to do with the Ego. Thanks for the comparison.
I've really enjoyed all my ego products more than I expected I would
@@MONTOD my next car will probably be an ego!!!
Great job. Thanks
Thank you too!
Ryobi all day long !, I sold ego for ryobi and never will regret it
Liking instantly for the starting dog scene! Lolled.
😂 glad his craziness is paying off
to adjust the ego your suppose to use the handle in front of the bagger attachment makes it east to adjust
Great review! Really like your music cuts!
I like the performance of the Ego lineup. Ego has a 3yr warranty on their batteries. Is Ryobi lifetime warranty on their 40v system like their other lineups?? Been seeing lots of reviews that you really have to manage your ego batteries to get the life expectancy out of them.
Thank you! As far as I can tell from the warranty sheet it is similar
great review
Thank you!
THANKS SOOO MUCH,, BUT I WILL GO WITH THE RYOBI ' AWD' BECAUSE I'VE GOT A TOUGH HILL AND ROUGH PROPERTY TO COVER,, AND MANY TURNS..
His beatbox scared me.
I thought it was something else 😮
The Ego batteries have a built-in fan to help cool the batteries may have been getting hot and shutting off to protect the circuit. Lowes had the ego mowers $100. off for memorial week.
I bought an EGO 2110 self propelled to make it easier to mow uneven ground in hot weather. Read all the reviews. Wish I had seen info on the battery size and weight before I bought it. If I had I would not have bought it. I have a really hard time handling that huge heavy battery. Do not like it at all. And no directions at all in the manual about what the lights mean. Just directions about blade changing and things I would hire out and never do myself. I have had a WORX 56V push mower for about 6 years. I can grip those batteries with one hand. Like them much better. They are 2 # 2 3/4 oz each vs 6 #5 oz for the EGO. Glad I still have that mower.
Thanks, you helped me make my decision to go electric and go Ryobi. I was interested in the cutting performance and noise level. My grass snowblower died this winter. Then yesterday my Craftsman mower died after 16 years despite my rookie attempts to fix it. Sooo I think it's a sign to go electric and against carbs ( not the food ones ;).
Glad I could help!
Cutting overgrown grass like that with a mulching plug in is probably why you had mixed results.
I’d like to see you do it again on side discharge to see if it keeps them from bogging down.
Nice. Problem now would be finding that much grass to cut
luscious usually pertains to taste or smell. Lush would probably be a better word choice. That is, unless you are thinking about eating some grass, in which case keep using luscious. 😅
I knew what you meant though, and you put a big smile on my face. 😊
key word is "usually", luscious has five meanings. one of them is arousing physical desire, I might have meant that one😏
Team Ego for the win baby! 😂😊🤙🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
😂😂it's a good time
I'm not going to lie, I've been a ryobi fan since when I was working in construction and everybody was touting their Milwaukee, Makita and one guy was boasting about his Hilti branded tools, but when it came to the perilous places everyone was happy with my Ryobi... Because when something goes wrong, just drop the Ryobi because it's affordable to replace, where the Hilti needed to be guarded with your life as that's a whole weeks paycheck to replace.... And performance-wise they're equal... If someone is up in the raftors, they'd just toss up my Ryobi and even when it was missed and hit the floor, it keep working like a champ, but the Hilti was treated with kid gloves and still needed to be taken to a repair shop...btw I purchased the Ryobi lawnmower and my wife loves it... Being disabled I can't pull a string start mower and hold the lever at the same time... But I just loaded the charged battery squeezed the lever and pushed the blade- start button all with one hand, and got to work... When I was done I used 2 bars on the battery, even with using the self-propell feature...
I’m jealous how much you picked up the Ryobi for. 😂
Lookup any local online auction sites in your area! There's a ton of like-new items being sold for really cheap. But be careful because you might get addicted 😅
Great review. I’ve used gas lawn mowers on lawns this overgrown and had to cut multiple times with stopping and cleaning out.
So I’m impressed with both electric mowers. After charging these guys up I’m sure they’d both do great lowering the blades on the already cut portions.
Hopefully electric lawn mowers keep getting better
Nice side by side. my question and sorry if I missed this were the batteries new I remember you saying slightly used but the price seemed really reduced? I believe like you mentioned ego is top dog in Outdoor consumer lawn equipment. Glad you made the disclaimer one was new and thought your test was laid out visually well for easy comparison. Great comparison. be careful draining those 40v batteries too deeply where the ryobie wont put out enough charge to get them charged again. temps can hurt batteries as well. Now we need to see ego headsup against millwaukee and dewalt on the Greeniron...Gridiron field! Great job.
yes, the ryobi was slightly used. hard to know how used, but by the look of the blades possibly one to two uses.
Very big lawn and lots of grass...another two weeks and you could have had it swathed and baled it and sold it to a stable. Those mowers were not designed for a lawn the size of a horse pasture. Good comparison.👍
Thank you! I hope it was helpful
good comparison but those lawn mowers are made to cut residential yards. Plus that grass is very thick. I think even a gas mower will bog down. Good comparison though. The Ego wheels are smaller as well.
Thank you, agreed!
I have that Ryobi and after 2 years its junk and I have that flashing battery issue lots of times
Cut time is greatly reduced when self propelled is engaged. Add in the height of the grass and it did exactly what it should.
That's helpful thanks
Wish you used the sude chute on both ,i know i dislikes the Ego side chute
Is this the regular Ego Select Cut or the Select Cut XP? I’ve never had the mower cut out but a first generation I had struggled in thicker grass. The Select Cut XP it pretty powerful.
The regular ego select cut. Sorry for the late response
When a Li-Ion battery shuts off the first time that's the BMS (Battery Management System) inside the battery pack TELLING YOU it's time to recharge the battery.
What many don't know is that OVER DISCHARGING the pack by re-starting the mower after shutdown WILL REDUCE THE LIFESPAN of the battery pack.
1st rule for mulching ... no more than 2" off the top. You should've used the side chutes on both mowers with the highest cutting height. Have used both mowers ... both are good. However the Ryobi Crosscut does do a better job when used as it's meant to be, cutting from about 5" down to 2 1/2" to 3" high. The battery life was close on both. In closing ... the grass you chose would have given "anyones" brand of gas mower a hard time.
Agreed
That’s what I found out about mulching. It has to be a certain hight of growth. Tall grass and you’ll get clumps and uncut areas and bog it down. Great area to mow as not a yard but more of a field. Ego is impressive and been on the fence of getting an ego or a gas Honda.
If you want to get a gas Honda you've got to do it soon, I'm pretty sure I've heard that they're phasing those out
nice no nonsense review
This presentation was very useful to me. I am an elderly woman who will now start taking care of my own yard. I am opting for the Ego lm2167sp. Do you mind telling me what your opinion is on this particular model?
Thnx.
Hi, sorry for the late response. I've never tested that model but the now $1k pricetag I can only imagine that being necessary for a large yard with dense (not excessively long but tightly spaced) grass. Anything else I think would be overkill when you can still get a 21" select cut for $600
@@MONTOD Thank you for responding.
me: "I am not about to watch this man mow grass for 4 minutes" *watches this man mow grass for 4 minutes* "hmm, yes I see." Good comparison video. I enjoy the scientific feel. Don't know why you used mulching instead of the side chute, but it's still a good and equal comparison.
Lol thanks. I've seen a lot of people mentioned the mulching. honestly, I forgot that it was in when I started with the ego so then I had to leave it in when I cut with the Ryobi to compare it evenly 🤦🏾♂️
Oh, haha. It happens. The kind of blade and how sharp it is can also affect runtime and cut quality. Idk if the Ryobi comes with multiple blade types but I know that Egos comes with at least 2 kinds, and the select cut comes with 3 different kinds and a 4th for the double blade system. Do you remember what kind of blades you had on, and their condition?
The Ryobi comes with the two blade system, but no variation. For the Select Cut I'm pretty sure I used the lift blade. They were both new mowers and had only been used once or twice. Factory sharp, no additional sharpening.
Ego does look like good brand and might get one someday but time being sticking with ryobi, mainly cause i have a lot of their tools and plenty spare batteries i can use. ^^
Ryobi is still a good option, I know plenty that are happy with their products
@@MONTOD Their mowers had rocky start but im glad they got better over time. I dont have this brand of ryobi mowers but one i got still better than last two. Especially since it was around time their larger batteries started popping up where didn't have worry about going 3-5 batteries for mowing front and back lawn.
😀 I'm happy to see your commitment to battery! These were my first and I'll never go back
That will happen It's a no load voltage rise as the battery cools down, However,, don't never run them too low as the batteries will fail!!! and will not be chargeable, as the chargers BMS will no longer recognize under voltage minimums batteries for safety.
You can get the EGO without self propelled function for $399.00
I think the ryobi battery being all the way dead is better than the ego because you get to use more of the battery to cut the lawn.
Can you tell me if you have to use your thumbs to keep the self propelled feature working on the Ryobi? I have difficulties with pinched nerves and my thumbs and wonder if I'd be able to operate it for any length of time? Thank you.
Yes, you have to use your thumb to hold down the self-propelled feature. I imagine one could position their hands to have the palm trigger that, but they would have to hold their forearms and wrist at an awkward and most likely uncomfortable angle.
@@MONTOD Thank you!
Wait a minute, I have the Ego select cut xp with the included 56-volt 10 ah battery. And I literally cut down, 22" tall grass effortlessly, time after time without once tilting the mower over the tall grass to cut it. The motor never bogged down at no time, cutting that 22" tall grass and even 1" thick bushes, in fact, you can't Bogg down the motor, that's how power the motor is. So, I don't know why in your video, with that little grass, why it keeps cutting off. The Ego lawnmower is a beast with grass.
I've got to say it's been a while since I made this, I don't remember it cutting off because the grass was too tall lol. but I do remember it happening when the battery was dying. Also you have the xp which has a more powerful motor, they are not the same
What Amp/Hour were the batteries? These mowers come with different size batteries while the decks and blades are roughly the same. It would help with the comparison.
Ego one 7.5ah battery. Ryobi two 6ah batteries...It's all in the video
The EGO had a 6ah battery and only lasted 20mins??
My experience could be a 1-off, but I'm frustrated as hell dealing with EGO: (Location GA:/grass type: Bermuda approx. 66oo sq. ft.) I bought the EGO 2130SP in Feb 2021, while I want to give it 5-Star rating (works great when it works). But EGO is getting 1-star from me. I've had a random problem of it not starting (in driveway) or stopping/stalling during a cut (and I'm not cutting overgrown grass here). It's not a battery issue, the battery works fine in the String Trimmer. Also, I can't simulate it at will. In Mar of 2022 I turn it over to an authorized dealer. They had it for 3 weeks and told me they could not find anything wrong with it (Note: it was returned to me very filthy, both mower and charger). Well, the same problem happened again at the end of the cutting season (yes, it ran all summer long in 90-degree heat). At the beginning of this season (2023) it did it again after 2 complete cuts. In APR/May it happened again these past 2 times I called EGO. I let them know I reported this same problem in the past, went through their scripted troubleshooting guide and it worked fine while they were on the phone. Hung up with them and guess what? It stalled again and would not start about 20 minutes into my cut, I finished with my gas mower. The following week it would NOT start again. Before calling EGO, I went through all the steps I from the previous week and it would NOT start on the driveway. I called EGO and of course, it works. This time I was able to finish my lawn (Bermuda, approx. 6600 sq. ft. Here 's my problem, I'm not calling EGO for no reason. It's under full warranty and there is something wrong with my mower. And I can guarantee it's not the typical wiring or relays found on youtube vids. As I said, this happen to me in 2022 and I waited to double triple check to be sure it was not some silly operator error. 1) Charge battery (all green lights) 2) slide into slot (be sure it clicks in place) 3) fully push start button and pull bail switch. The light on the handle shows solid "orange light" while battery lights are fully green. The mower nor the battery is hot and I'm not even in the grass at times when it shuts down or simply does not start. There is no way it's a load issue and be acceptable as working under normal conditions. I follow the 1/3 rule of cutting. I've replayed this info to the EGO reps several times. This should be more than enough info to turn it in. Yet, I can't get them to authorize a real tech to figure out the issue or simply replace it. But then what...I'm out of a mower I paid $600+ for another three weeks possibly. It's a good thing I held on to my 15 yr. old gas mower. WTF!!!
Not surprised that EGO 'Customer Service' doesn't want to honor warranty. I lost track of my mower battery since late March and today stopped by Lowes to see if battery affordable. Would have been $400. No way. Called EGO 'Customer Service hoping they might give me a discount on a replacement. Their answer? "I'm sorry, but you'll just have to find it." My first impulse after that was to put it on the curb, I was so mad ! New mower or not ! I bought an extended warranty, but if it gives any trouble and won't get fixed I will just get rid of it. Won't ever buy any more of their products. P.S. Calling them stirred things up. I just found the misplaced battery !
My lawn has no need to be mulched. What I’m looking for is a simple mower just discharge & let it go
Ego is superior.
What AH battery is used with the EGO?
7.5ah
The EGO appears hard to beat. I have been considering a Makita brushed mower for under $500. I might wait to see if they get cheaper towards the fall season.
Ego definitely has some cheaper options, but but it's still pricey as far as lawn mowers go
@@MONTOD After mentioning Makita, I started getting Makita commercials on cable. I'm suspicious.
@@tonymontana3742 Welcome to data mining bruh lol. You think that is crazy ... Go out to eat with some friends and have a talk... within a few hours you will get a sudden pop up of a commercial about where you were just at and even commercials about what you talked about. Watch, I will be getting Ego commercials and Ryobi tools from Direct Tools Outlet soon hereafter.
@@MONTOD It's cheaper than the Milwaukee 😂
YOu might also note that the Ryobi self-propel motor is not brushless and is rated by Ryobi at 200 hours. I can't cut my hilly lawn without self - propel. The batteries never last as long as they should and they vary radically from one to another (I've had six of them).
He actually said in the video the Ryobi is brushless. In fact I was in HD today and all of the higher end Ryobi are brushless.
He's referring to the motor propelling the wheels specifically. The motor propelling the cutting blades is indeed brushless
You can tell that neither is meant to mow grass like that because neither has a side discharge. Mulching with a tiny deck volume requires more power than they have. Most any $400 gas mower could have cut the entire field. These battery mowers are a great choice for retired ladies who can mow often, keeping the grass low.
I've always thought of myself as a Blanche
this proves one of the issues with battery lawn mowers. bottom line is need more torque and blade speed
I know ego has superior torque
I wanted to like the ego, but their batteries seem to have changed to cheaper cells. The one thing this review misses is the huge variety in the Ryobi line and fact you can get good deals on their batteries direct from TTI. EGO batteries are cost you quite a bit more.
Gas is the best ,more power TIM
Thankfully technology progresses and that's becoming less true
Not that I don’t trust it but , mine run way longer … might be the battery we’re not fully charged… and I cut St Augustine grass which is much more dense.
All batteries were fully charged, I flipped the key when the first died on the Ryobi. But the grass was super long.
Ohh Im excited that ego is coming out with an electric motor I can replace my 200cc gas mower with... thats something to get excited about as well! Cost may curb the excitement we have to wait to see!
I can't trust a lawn guy that cuts grass in dress shoes.... Plus, how did you grab that battery so easy with those hands?😂... LOVE YA My son
🤣 with love like that I need no enemies
Stop playing with your battery. always wear your face shield when you are playing with your battery so you will not go blinded.
Did you not put the plastic rear discharging hardware on the EGO. The grass had no where to go... not a true comparison
They both had the mulching insert inserted
The motor revving up when it is going threw thicker grass has nothing to do with it being brushless. A brushed motor can have that technology function.
Noted
Ryobi was cheaper, works fine, I'm not a professional landscape person, Ryobi is fine.
These two models cost the same, that's why I compared them
This validates my need to stay with gas power.
Glad I could help
I respect your review, but it wasn't equal due to the battery size difference. You can't test a 7.5 AH -vs- 6 AH and think they will last anywhere close to the same time. Also this is not my experience at ALL with Ryobi. I'm not sponsored by Ryobi and I use their products to mow just about anything. I have the same mower and I have mowed 3 ft. tall overgrown grass, 2-3 ft. overgrown ditches full of thick weeds, and much more with a lot longer runtime. All documented on my channel.
Thanks, but I respectfully disagree. The Ryobi came with two 6ah batteries which would be 12ah total vs 7.5ah, and it still didn't last as long as the ego.
@@MONTOD call ryobi and tell them you got shit batteries and they'll send you new one's
He did say he got it used and didn't really have either mower adjusted properly for the job. Take it for what it's worth.
@@MONTOD Dude, that Ryobi only uses ONE battery at a time, its either or. You can start out with two fully charges batteries and when one shuts off, you switch to the other one.
Dude, that's what I did
Terrence the dog needs more training 😅
My Ryobi is less than a year old and the blade motor is not working.
Ryobi customer service is terrible and really slow to repair or replace and so far haven’t given me any information on what they are going to do about it.
I had to buy a used gas mower while I wait.
*Trust the math.* Continue posting *"EGO versus #####"* lawn-mower reviews, drop all other topics, and your channel will be Wildly Successful!
If only I was interested in lawn care
Ryobi solar powered
Your not bagging?
Nah
@@MONTOD if he bagged he's be there all day.
EGO is the last generation right?
Ego is its own brand of battery powered lawn equipment. I'm not sure if that answers your question though?
@@MONTOD They were asking about the specific Ego mower you were testing. Last generation refers to the model of Ego mower.
Caption said you were using lowest speed with the Ryobi but medium speed with Ego - NOT a fair comparison! Even a gas mower wouldn’t cut that thick and high grass on a low speed. Probably shouldn’t even try cutting that grass with either (or any) cordless battery powered mower - they are NOT made for that. Must disagree with most the other comments that state it was a good review, because it wasn’t!
😏 it's a long video, you probably lost track. I started both off on medium then reduced to low
Dude, these mowers are not designed to cut 2 foot high grass in one pass. Cut at max height using the chute then cut again a bit lower then do a final cut.
Or the people who are supposed to cut it should have cut it when they were supposed to cut it.
@@MONTOD yeah that too
I have a greenworks 40 volt 21 inch cut self propelled mower and it doesn't do as good as the Ryobi 40 volt 21 inch self propelled mower I've had for about 5 years. I recently purchased a Power smart 26 inch cut 80 volt self propelled mower and it's better than the Greenworks 40 volt self propelled mower and the Ryobi 40 volt 21 inch cut self propelled mower. If I was buying a 21 inch cut self propelled mower again it would be a Ryobi. Greenworks don't come close.
Ego batteries protect themselves whereas Ryobi's don't. Protect? You might ask. Lithium-ion batteries don't like to be stored at full charge. Just like in the video, battery charge coming back, it's a chemical reaction that doesn't just stop. At full charge sitting for more than 3 months the batter can overcharge and kill itself.(Had this happen with my Ryobi trimmer) All(as far as I know) Ego batteries will discharge themselves down to... 30%(I think. off the top of my head.) after sitting idle for a month. They will even do this when mounted on the charger and not let the charger bring them back up. So before the first cut of spring make sure to take the battery off and put it back on to get a full charge.
Thanks for sharing! I'll have to remember that for next season
Careful, drive-by shooting 😂🤣
i can't get shot
40 volt vs 56 volt, not really fair to compare.
Given the similar pricing strategy, marketing, and the fact they are competitors, it’s entirely fair.
@@KZSoze - I would have to say it wasn't fair. I don't think anyone noticed the difference in the battery size. The EGO was 7.5 AH and Ryobi was 6 AH. A 7.5 is going to win every time when it comes to runtime.
@@TheBitsonEffect I purchased my Ego, with 7.5AH and rapid charger for $599, which will run for 60 minutes. Ryobi will charge you $750 for a Ryobi with two (2) 6AH batteries and rapid charger, which run for only 70 projected minutes. The Ego will recharge said single battery in approximately 60 minutes. The Ryobi takes 60 minutes per smaller, less efficient battery.
I have a couple Ryobi 40V products and the difference in battery and performance is night and day. Ego is far superior. Ryobi is entirely adequate for home DIY.
one is 56 volt the other is 20 volt no comparison
The Ryobi is 40v. But as I've mentioned, the voltage doesn't always indicate performance. There are 80v units that the 56v ego outperforms, at least on paper
@@MONTOD no its not only one battery is used at a time then you switch to the other one. try the 40 volt Ryobi which has 2 40 volt batteries but only uses one at a time.
I don't know how to prove to you in the comments that the Ryobi tested uses 40v batteries
It literally says 40 VOLTS!! right on the mower and you can’t get a Ryobi cross cut in 20v 🤦🏼♂️
10:04 😂
I think you got some crap batteries because watching other videos they last way longer lol
If you call ryobi tell them you're not even getting 10 min a charge they will replace them free
Right on, thanks!
No, this grass he cut is really thick and pretty tall. Grass line that eats up a battery pretty quick.
