I liked mine so much, I ordered the Greenworks 80v trimmer and edger. Now I have two batteries and chargers.

Nice i Picked up the Newer Model, came with strap and smaller flat Nozzle 800 CFM not sure it's much of a difference. This thing is huge like a ghostbusters gun, but fun to use. Thanks for sharing. Only downfall I saw to this deal that the battery was only 80V 2 amp and charger was also only for a 2 amp battery, not sure if 4 amp batteries can be charged on 2 amp Chargers?
Greenworks had a father's day sale, but it did not bring the Strap or flat Nozzle. IF I wanted the 80V 4 amp battery it would of been $100 more, not sure it was worth $100 for a few minutes extra of battery life.
Thanks for sharing. 🤗

Depending on the wattage draw as it is running, I can see 30min run time for sure, but 60min... I don't know, Maybe 45 based on my math following the (I = (P/V) x 1000) formula. The thing looks fantastic. Please keep us posted on this! Great video as always Tom!!

I see that Bauer leaf blower in the background. That serves as an advantage. If you’re using a one of them blowers and the battery dies, then you can turn to the other blower to finish the job!

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

Thanks for Watching! Correct!

Just bought at my local Costco $199.00. Time will tell. Should be an upgrade from my electric B/Decker.

[@4knucklehead]

Well....I'm sorry to say I'll be returning tomorrow. Fully charged I only got about 15min of use. Not worth the $199.00 I payed. Back to the $40 plug in Black/Decker.@@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ

Crap...I was going to get one the blower and weed wacker and was also going online at Costco to get a 2pack of batteries $299 80v 4ah

These battery operated equipment manufacturers are making more on the batteries than the equipment. That incentives you to buy other equipment of the same voltage and manufacturer. I bought a battery chainsaw and unless you are doing some minor pruning, you will need extra batteries. The batteries are 2/3's the cost of the initial toll/battery/charger package.

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

Thanks for watching Ted! Absolutely agree!

[@alidi4144]

I got the 60v lawnmower and the. The 60 blower for the extra battery this is amazing i get everything done in 5 min on turbo

I own one of them. I love it.

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

Thanks for Watching! Good to know!

My biggest concern: real world battery life.
By the way, I'm looking at this one because in 3 days the 800 CFM unit goes on sale at Costco at 200 bucks. I'm normally not a fan of electric yard tools because battery life is a pain and my biggest concern is clearing out 100 yd long ditch of leaves on my driveway downhill stretch. I use a rake and it takes hours and if I don't clear it, during a real downpour it tends to bog down and cause water to run over our gravel driveway. It can create some ridiculous ditches right across the road.

You will need to buy another battery. Capacity of this battery is too small for doing a full yard job. So be prepared to put out more money than just the cost of this kit

[@patriciasampier6705]

So question I got a piece of my clothing sucked in it,and it broke a blade! Any suggestions? It’s only 5 months old

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

Thanks for watching! Sorry to hear that, glad no one was injured, I’d call there customer support

[@frogbg661]

The red Bauer in the background is jealous. Lol

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

Lol, Thanks for watching!

[@RAMILAYCAN]

Is garbage the battery broke down after few charges

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

Thanks for watching! Sorry to hear that

[@NerdyMeathead]

They would sell out and fly off the shelves if That battery had usb c ports on it so you can use the battery in case of an emergency.

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

Thanks for watching! That’s a great idea

[@mogeking56]

80 volt leaf blower is much to heavy, I have a 60 volt battery and that is heavy enough 😢

Hi Tom 😃

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

Thanks for watching Eric!

[@Greg-dl1nr]

This is a cheaper version at Costco with only a 2.5 Ah battery instead of the 4.0 Ah battery

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

Thanks for Watching Greg! You are correct

[@danielg.1707]

I bought one, not impressed with the power or the battery life.

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

Thanks for watching! Appreciate the feedback

[@user-fj3qt5bg1o]

After 4 uses it will not charge brand new POS.

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

Thanks for watching! Take it back to Costco

[@richardgross6061]

Hi, did you exchange it for another one? I've been looking at this one and the "EGO" one at Lowes which is nice but expensive.

[@michaeldavis6550]

In my opinion EGO Tools are better then Greenworks.
