The Ego Powerload String 80V Cordless Brushless Axial Blower is a smart choice for those who have small or hard-to-reach outdoor areas. Its limited battery life is a major downfall, though. I bought this a month ago and am very happy with it. Like all the 80V tools it does a great job and has more than enough power. Pole saws are great for pruning and trimming hard-to-reach branches. Think about where the branch being cut may fall—do not stand under the branch being cut.
Be sure to consider whether the lawnmower has swivel wheels. This is especially important if you have curved flower beds or gardens within your lawn, or if your lawn is an irregular shape.

For the second half of the saw performance metric, we took the saws to a tree service job site to let the local crew get a feel for each model and provide us with some professional feedback. All agreed that the greenworks pro 80V performed similar to a two-stroke chainsaw, and the boys were impressed with the fact that an electric version could power an 18-inch chain. This model is less prone to binding and stalling than most of the other models that we’ve tested.
Greenworks is tossing its hat into the battery-powered zero-turn ring. We initially saw prototypes for the sun joe lawn mower 60V zero-turn lawn mower and its lawn tractor cousin a couple of years ago. Now we have a final production model to test and we’re excited to see how it’s all come together. The new Greenworks Pro 60V string trimmer is lightweight and powerful.
