You could've gone to Starbucks and bought yourself a Ice espresso quad, extra splash of soymilk,soy milk, 4 pumps sugar free vanilla syrup, venti cup, 4 pumps white chocolate mocha sauce, 4 shots while you waited. Lol 😅
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 that’s the order!!! 😂😂😂😂🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾
What speed is it on,high or low?
Who would have thought somebody could make watching a trimmer spin so entertaining. I love watching out for what kind of footwear you are sporting in each video, You have a lot of different footwear!!!😁👍👍🤙👣
haha thank you so much Richard lol and yes I am a sneakerhead I have a ton more sneakers in storage.... a ton more hahaha appreciate you my friend! ☺️🤙🏾
Imagine being a neighbor and looking out the window and YardBrah is out there gettin jiggy with the lawn equipment 😂
😂😂😂😂😂 oh I’m sure they think I’m a nut case 💀💀💀😂🤙🏾
I’ve been trying to finish this all afternoon.
Nice scientific test! At least you got your “CrossFit” in
How is your new project my friend I am dying to see it in action 😉🤙🏾
I’m also a huge Ego fan! All of their products work great. The only ego products I don’t have are the snowblower, zero turn mower, fan and light!
aye! Yes i saw that light very intrigued lol ... and the snow blower would just take up space it snows like twice here in Washington lol hahaha 😂🤙🏾
Who needs a Peloton to exercise when you have an EGO string trimmer lol .
I mean... those pelotons are NOICE!!! lol but yeah waiting around for the string trimmer to die makes you look at your gut and think.... hmmm summer is a couple months away and you're still fat 😂😂😂
I was just talking to one of my subscribers about this today, just sent them your video how ironic👍✔
That’s awesome thank you so much for the support!!! 🙏🏾😊🤙🏾
@@YardBrah How big is your yard? i couldnt make it through cutting my yard with this thing which is 0.32 acres.
That is incredible. With a 2.5Ah battery on this you would save 2 pounds of weight and probably get plenty of run time to do your residential property 2-3 times per charge.
Yeah it’s def a nice strimmer! I never run out of battery on my little lawn 😂😊👊🏾🔥🤙🏾
Incredibly fun reviews! Thanks, man!
Thank you very much for tuning in! ☺🤙🏾
This was an awesome video you got the right idea
Thank you for tuning in 🙏🏾😊🤙🏾
I saw your Hawaii mug. Are you from Hawaii. We lived on big island in Honokaa. Almost 9 years. Going back to live when my daughter turns 16. 🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🌺🔋✅🏄♂️
Grew up Honolulu and went to kindergarten windward side! I go almost every year just to relax 😊🤙🏾
I just used mine today for the first time and ran it until the battery indicator showed one flashing red light, so got 45 minutes of actual trimmer usage to that point. But I will add that since I didn't run it until it stopped running I maybe could have gotten a little more time out of it.
Aye yes!!! So this wasn’t too far off! Under load it’s def less… I want to get the 10ah battery and test it out! That should last at least an hour 30 😂😂😂😊🔥🤙🏾🙏🏾
@@YardBrah you were pretty close. I do have a 5 amp hour battery that came with the the EGO 760 leaf blower I bought at the same time as the trimmer. I want to check that as well. But before I do I think I will try the 4 amp hr. battery again and run it till it stops and check the time again.
they should put ego trimmers in the nightclub lol o yes the robot dance lol
hahahahahahaha! poppin bottles and trimmin turf 💀💀💀
Aloha. Let’s Go. Happy Friday brother 🤙🌞👍😎✌️💯💪🏼
🤙🏾Aloha Steven!!!!!! Happy Friday & Happy earth day brother!!!! 😊🤙🏾🌎🌱🙏🏾
It should last even longer than that when you're using it because you won't be constantly on the trigger. Cant wait to buy mine
We’re saving for one now 🤙🌞👍😎✌️🔋✅
Oh man yes I love it! You’re gonna be so excited 😂🙏🏾🤙🏾
Subbed lol you're an awesome content creator. I can't believe you only have 3k subscribers. I thought it would say millions the way you make your videos.
Oh man thank you! 😂 It's all just for fun and for the love of the mow! 😂 Thanks for support Dustin! 😊🙏🏾🤙🏾🙌🏾
Hey I saw you doing push ups sit ups but not pull ups if you're trying to be come a marine you have to do pill ups 20 to get a perfect score I forget the the amount of time you get but that battery will outlast all 3 tests
Pull ups not pill sorry
haha! visited a friend in Maryland and they took me to the Academy in Annapolis where we did the boot camp course and one of the stations was 20 pull ups or you couldn't continue! 😂damn it's hard to get winter weight off 😂 funny may last year I was heavier than I am now, then by august I was down 25lbs then fall and winter I am a bear eating the world! oh the difficult fitness process in your late 30s... remember the younger days when you ran 5 miles and the next morning you had a 6 pack 😂💀 🤙🏾
Put some stress on it they are still good product I have them I live on a corner lot I use my 2.5 battery with edger then weedeater by then I'm at one 1 or 2 bars using my blower then I use my second battery to finish what's left about like 10 to 15 minutes left to a beautiful corner lot. I'm still adding to my tool set makes life easier 💪
I’m back and forth between speed 1 & 2 and I’m getting 30 minutes or less from mine.
Not enough to finish my yard but I’m ok with putting on another battery and finishing.
My only issues is it’s so heavy and the head is so big.
My Stihl gas trimmer is a few pounds lighter and the head is almost flat to the ground.
Oh wow what you have the 4ah battery too? Mine literally lasts forever 😂
@@YardBrah yes the 4
@@JohnBfree29 That's crazy! I dont' know I have great runtime with mine!
When it is in real use, it will cut into your time.
Ain't no home owner weed eating for 45 minutes.
😂😂😂 I’m dead! You’re right though maybe 3-5 min tops front and back for me 😂😊🤙🏾🙌🏾🙏🏾
Awesome video 📸
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾😊🤙🏾
I wish I could have this is the best, but for me, it’s a big clunky load. Too heavy, shaft too short, even extended. Hoping Lowe’s will take it back even though I used it.
That's a long run time. Under real world load like tall or wet grass the run time may be a little lower but that's still a long run time. Great video thank you
Yeah for sure! Thanks for tuning in!!! 😊🙏🏾🤙🏾
I used the 12ah battery from my lawn mower. Got over 2 hours on high speed using it. Not on the floor like your test.
I forgot to mention. I did this on the first day I bought it. And it stoped at 2 hours not because the batteries was empty. It stoped because it died. The strong shot out and it died the motor would not come back on. Straight garbage.
@@Handledy Probably shouldn't have run the weed eater with a 12ah battery.
@@2028end why not ?
I have a fifteen-year-old Echo trimmer that still starts on the first pull. In the fifteen years I have replaced the spark plug and air filter. Will the Ego and the battery last that long?
😂😂😂 you have an old faithful there! According to EGO Power+, their 56-volt batteries with the patented ARC Lithium cell technology typically has a shelf life that can last up to ten (10) years….. so old faithful has EGO beat 😂😂😂😂😊🙌🏾🤙🏾🙏🏾
What's the difference between 15 and 16in? Does the 4.5ah come with 16in or typical 2.5 and you have to upgrade? Can I use commercial strings on this trimmer or it has to be ego certified?
Yeah typically the 15's come with small ah batteries and I use any .095 string and it works flawlessly doesn't have to be ego sting! Thanks for tuning in! 😊🙏🏾🤙🏾
There is no rating on string just size
The 16” comes w/ the 4aH, the 15” comes with the 2.5aH. The 16” has an auto feed line, whereas the other models (15”) has a bump feed, so you have to bump it to get the line out. Imho that sucks b/c some of the older models has some the similar specs of the 16” model, but biggest letdown for me is the bump head on it. Too bad cuz it’s really nice and light, but i hate having to bump.
16 inch is one bigger than 15 inch.
Can you do a timer when you are using the mower just to give us real figures cause what the manufacturer tell you it’s usually bull man these Ego batteries cost a fortune
Yes for sure I’m gonna do all the batteries on all my ego tools 😊🙏🏾🤙🏾
How many batteries do you own
I have ~ two 7.5ah ~ one 4ah ~ two 2.5ah (5 ego batteries) 🙌🏾😊🤙🏾
@@YardBrah that’s awesome you guys in the US you really invest in your yards my next door neighbour has a 20 year old gas mower that’s full of rust and it chugs away
very interested in this as I have just over a half acre property to trim plus garden bets etc. Not sure 1 battery will last me
If you can find a 7.5ah or 10ah battery for a good deal it will def last you! 😊🙌🏾🙌🏾🙏🏾
Batteries drain MUCH faster when under load! So, unless your line trimming air, your battery isn't going to last anywhere near this long
6:05 57 minutes seems a long time.😅
Oh under load it’s like 35 maybe 40 min tops I’ll have to do a real test this season 😂🤙🏾
My batterie was fully charged and it lasted 15 minutes
Interesting - 57min runtime, but the sticker at the store says 60min run time lol.
😂😂😂 yeah with actual trimming maybe 45 min 😊🙌🏾🤙🏾🙏🏾
Take it eazy
Take et easy 😂🙏🏾🤙🏾
What's the weight of the smallest battery? Thanks
Smallest is 2.5ah and is 2.77 lbs 4ah is 4 lbs 😊🤙🏾🙏🏾🔥
@@YardBrah is it still 56 volt? I intend to purchase today at my ace hardware store near me. The kit with charger and battery is $299.00. I believe that battery is 56 volt? So I assume I cannot swap out for the lighter battery? Please advise. Much appreciated. The 2.5 ah is lighter so I would rather have that battery vs the 4.0 ah. One Pound can make a difference.
Video starts @ 3:55. 😂
EGO battery = Awesome
GoPro battery = Bad
Seriously GoPro your camera's cost more then the line trimmer but can't even last as long. maybe EGO should start making action cams.
Tip for any one in the market for one if you also in the market for a mower get the mower with the 7.5 AH battery then the line trimmer by its self for a modest size yard it should have plenty of power for the weekly mow + edge trimming no need to wast money on a second battery.
Wish u could put this head on the older carbon fiber shaft trimmer so u don’t have to buy a whole new tool
That would be awesome! 😊🤙🏾
I agree - that would be awesome. It would totally help out w/ the weight too.
It's actually heavier with the carbon fiber shaft
why are you walking to the right with a counter-clockwise spin? that'll put strain on engine and waste battery....
I’m like Zoolander I can’t walk left 😂😂😂
@@YardBrah definitely give it some practice bro, you'll get way less resistance on your line. Plus you can see what you cut walking backwards, like how writing with your right gives more visibilty than with your left.
That’s not a real test . When you’re actually using it the grass will slow down the motor causing a strain on the battery .
half that on load
About half to 3/4 for sure depending on how fast you push the variable speed 😊🔥🤙🏾🙏🏾
As the ego slows the motor or increases speed based on load, this test is very flawed for actual run time. Granted they are still very good, but the test is bad.
My gas trimmer died this morning so I picked up the $299 ego trimmer with the 4Ah battery, carbon fiber shaft, telescoping handle and line IQ.
I can say, I am very impressed. Cut all of my trim around the house, sidewalks and fence with ease. Still had 80% battery left when I was done. The auto feed line worked flawlessly and the power was great. I am definitely a believer now. I tried the Milwaukee trimmer before this one and it was garbage. Didn’t last 10 min. The ego is in a whole other league.
@@Brandon-ll3ff Milwaukee's fuel has same power as the ego, even for 18volts. The downside is that it's running on 18volts and normally comes stock with a 6ah or 5ah pack. Which is basically like a 2ah 56volt ego. So if you got a 4ah ego. that's basically like a 9ah 18volt or more. So course your ego will last whole lot longer and with less load.
Same comparsion to Ryobi's 40volt vs 18volt. a 2ah 40volt will be same exact power time as a 18volt at 6ah. So a 4ah 40v will be much more runtime or same if you pair with a 8amp 18volt.
Milwaukee surprisely has the power. But because of it's lower voltage and requires a higher ah battery for a smaller ah higher volt system. It means it'll get a lower runtime under load.
Sadly the biggest mistake ego is making compared to Milwaukee. Is they aren't learning to have a expanding future proof system like Milwaukee has. As Ego limits some of their devices to specific ah sizes. Unlike Milwaukee that has room to fit much larger packs in any of their tools. So you could put a 12ah in the trimmer, or lawnmower, etc. While Ego fits to specific size of their tools. Sure it'd make weight heavier with 56volt at 12ah. But the amount of time you can gain over weight is very great for future proofing.
Another one is Ego doesn't seem to be pushing their tools to the limit as other companies are doing. Even at lower voltage some of the companies 18volts are very much on the level of 40-52-56-60volt systems in performance.
For general tests ok. But for the main focus of the tool. This is probably the most lamest test ever.
If you TRULY wanna test battery life under load. Go to a yard that has a foot or two weeds and go crack down them. Now that will be a test of runtime and performance.
And for the general lack of info. Ah/Amps can differ between eachother. It's called Current. Which is way more higher then the battery life. 56volt at 4ah is just to give a example of battery Watt hours. It doesn't exactly put into true terms of the power the unit uses.
Also could've done without the jumproping, bad robot dancing, and jumproping dealo. Plus weird hangloose sign. (If no one knows what the pinky and thumb out means. Yes it's called 'HangLoose' It's a sign of saying stay cool.)
I'm sure its gonna die faster with cutting some grass
Yeah for sure but I don’t have enough grass to last me the entire time 😂😂😂😊🙏🏾🤙🏾🙌🏾
