I got the 6” 20v chain saw last week and used Saturday to clear wild trees and rose of Sharon between my and neighbors fences. Worked awesome and no problem going through some rough stuff and light in weight.
Great line of tools both 20v and 12v for a homeowner not professional….just not as big a line up as ryobi but very good tools
Ryobi has a lot of cordless options for sure...back when I was installing garage doors we had Ryobi tools (the blue ones) in the shop, back then they had NiCad batteries, which didn't hold a charge as long, but the tools worked great in the shop where you were always close enough to an outlet to keep batteries charging and keep working. We only had the regular use tools like the drill, impact driver, circular saw, reciprocating saw, and flashlight kit, but those tools got used all day long in a production shop and never had any problems with them....they've come a long ways with the Li-Ion batteries they use now though.
i LOVE that telescoping shaft! that is really cool, i wish they ALL did that.. SFMF
I love the new skil stuff
A lot of ppl need the telescopic just get to Tim's normal reach. 😄
I will own that extended saw. Reaching in and getting those branches will be much simpler now.
Hey boss, you need to check the price on the mini extension saw.
They are 149.00, not 300. Tool show also said 149
FYI for everyone, Amazon has the mini 6" saw with kit for 99 on sale.
Thanks for the video and review. brother
Also
That 6 in pruning saw non-telescoping is on sale in Amazon for $99 right now. Just got mine.
Been waiting for the inverter ever since I saw the specs in the Skil 2024 catalogue early this year, so happy to see it finally hitting the market. I was hoping for a 4-slot inverter/charger as well, like the big EGO model, but considering how frequently Skil releases new tools that may take another 5 years. Still, more options for mobile power is always a great thing.
I want a Skil mini bike based on the Coleman 200U with front suspension and able to use 4 to 6 40v batteries on a back rack. Top
Speed 20mph is fast enough on trail.
It's great to see that famous intro again
I never understood the point of the grass sheer. I guess using it for fine detailing if you're ocd about your bushes, but the 8" blade does the same job with better reach. I have seen a grass sheer wheeled mount so you can cut grass with it while standing, which at that point why not a string trimmer.
Areas where you don't want to launch debris (clippings into mulch, or throwing mulch around). Also good for small areas with lots of obstacles or around obstacles you don't want to damage with the string trimmer. And it 100% provides a better cut/finish than a string trimmer. Not as efficient as string trimming, but it does have a purpose, in which it does well. Shear isn't really meant for bushes.
I have the ryobi grass shears. I use mine in a couple delicate areas where I dont want to accidentally hit decorative posts with the string trimmer.
Some people have decorative grasses, I can't remember what its called, zoisia or something like that, that's the place where those shears would work.
Open your eyes TTI , don't keep selling old shit to us, we can innovation :)
Yo TJ!!! Great review as always! Thank you very very much. I have a request, if possible. It seems to be obvious to me that Skil is targeting Ryobi hard core, and if I must say so myself, I think they’re beating them at just about everything. Price for sure, performance, technology, options and so on. My request is would it be possible to do a head to head show down between the Ryobi and Skil versions of identical tools! I know they both make equivalents if the same tool and despite not owning any Skil tools, I think they make the better product. Any chance you could do a head to head on some of them?
I think the only thing Ryobi beats Skil on is catalogue size and new model release speed. I wish Chervon would invest more into Skil to ramp up their development, the way TTI has with Ryobi, because there is just as much (if not more) money to be made marketing to DIYers as there is to trades professionals.
The other thing I wish Skil would do (aside from adding their international tools to the US catalogue) is make their tools easier to buy. It's baffling that you can't get every Skil tool from every vendor that sells their products, so you need to bounce around between Lowes and Menard's and Sam's Club and Amazon and Toolnut and Acme, and Ohio Power Tools, etc.
Lowe's is pitiful on its stock of Skill tools. My closest Lowe's has a few (drill, recep saw, impact driver and just a couple more) but they are on a end cap and only two shelves.
I have been buying through Amazon, especially on sale.
@@randysmith9636 Stanley, Black & Decker has bought up so much shelf space in Lowes you practically have to go on an Easter egg hunt for the other brands. Flex does alright, but Bosch and Hitachi always seem like they are tacked on to other brands' shelves. Even Kobalt has to fight for space with DeWalt and Craftsman, and that's Lowes' own brand!
Have 3 NEW IMPACTS just wish they would come out with a 20 VOLT Power Core Battery with 21700 cells
They have 3 new impacts? Are they out already?!
@@Nicky14P yes the GEN 2 ULTRA TORQUE. 1/2 and 3/4 Drive and the gen 2 COMPACT IMPACT WRENCH that is a waste of $
Good to know, thanks!
Don't really care for Skil but the inverter was pretty cool.
I just bought an Ego 56V 21" self propelled lawnmower and saw they have an inverter as well, I think their inverter is around 400 watts, they also have a 3,000 watt inverter....problem is the overall cost of Ego batteries and tools is pretty high....the lawnmower was almost $700 and has the fast charger and a 7.5ah battery. The dang batteries are around $300-500 depending on the AH capacity.
@@wildbill23c I think the thing to remember about Chervon companies (EGO, Flex, Skil, etc.) is that Chervon is an energy/battery company first and a tool manufacturer second. It's why most of their market strategy revolves around innovation rather than competitive price or platform size.
@@Rycel2001 The Ego mower I bought is advertised as a 21" mower, its not, its a 20"....for what I'm using it for, its fine, I just trim around the border of my yard, and around the trees and stuff, and use my tractor for the rest. I did use it to mow my front and back lawn a few days ago and did it in 40 minutes with 1 of 5 bars still remaining on the battery...whatever each of those bars represents for run time I have no clue LOL. I figured it still had another 10-15 minutes of run time maybe...and I was cutting some heavier grass too so it was doing pretty well for being a battery powered lawn mower, and self propelled as well.
