Ryobi 40V Brushless Mower RY40180 Review
It seems strange to say that there are a plethora of lithium-ion lawn mower options on the market. They’re not exactly flying cars, but we’re mowing our lawns – mowing – with a battery. We introduced most of the major players a couple years ago in our battery powered mower roundup. Ryobi has given their […]
EGO 21 in Snow Blower Review
The EGO 21 in snow blower is one of only a handful of cordless battery-powered snow blowers. When reading the rave reviews of other EGO products, I had to see how if EGO’s snow blower lived up to the hype!

DeWalt 40V Max Blower Review
It seems as if the blower is everyone’s first step in Lithium-Ion powered outdoor power equipment (OPE) these days. To the manufacturer’s credit, it’s probably the easiest one to make. Basically, you just need to a motor to spin an impeller inside a housing that creates an intake and air output. The rest is just […]
EGO 15 in String Trimmer 56V Brushless Model Review
Last year we reviewed the EGO 12 in string trimmer which proved to be a great product for those of us with 1/8-acre lots who want to switch to rechargeable outdoor power equipment in lieu of gas powered tools. Where it came up a bit short was in the area of edging or when tackling […]
Kobalt 40V Max Lithium-Ion Mower, Blower, and Chainsaw
