I thought you had the Ego blower Chris? Dewalt looks nice either way you can’t go wrong with either brand.

They do its not brushless though. Just a cordless hedge trimmer.

I glanced at the Dewalt line of OPE today at HD. I don’t have any Dewalt cordless tools or I would consider them. They look like a quality tool and have to be much more reliable than gas power equipement. Hopefully Milwaukee gets in the game soon so I don’t need to add any yellow to my garage when my current tools fail…

Yeah I do have the Ego blower and consequently love the thing and truthfully I will probably end up going with the hedger. That Dewalt just looks good though!

Well….to answer my own question….

 

My Alter Ego……Clint Schwarzenegger Norris: Geez Chris, I just want to say an absolutely awesome machine! I would highly recommend it! Hwaaaaaacha!!!!! 

 

Chrisk: Really, what is so great about it?

 

Clint Schwarzenegger Norris: oh dude, it’s light, the trigger and weight is incredible and it easily blows through thick bushes….and the 5.0 lasts all day! And it can’t tell if I used 5 or 6 so the bush has to feel lucky….or dead.

Now!!! Get into da choppa!!!!!

 

Chrisk: wow! Clint Schwarzenegger Norris…..you are my hero! Thank you!!!!

 

And with that? I got it guys. It’s friggin awesome!!!! I’ll try to shoot some video later on. It was chewing through a bush I’ve got that I haven’t been able to trim without shears like it was wet newspaper. Awesome machine! The blade design is pretty neat too. Sort of a weird hook to it. Glad to have some more yellow in the house!

Man I used some industrial adhesive last night wood talk about some nasty fumes!!

KnarlyCarlMember since Jan 2016

This is great to hear, maybe you should indulge in acetone a little more often….. HA that way we could all drool over your (now more frequent) tool purchases!! LOL Jimbo i think that Harbor Freight drill smoke is what started it, like a gateway drug. Just watch it, fumes are nothing to joke about, i used to be able to lacquer without a respirator(idiot!!!), now I have to wear one or I choke on the air, no matter what the substance….

Can’t wait to see some action on that bad boy.

the 40v one is no joke.. i own that one.

ChrisKMember since Dec 2012

I’m sure it ain’t @iam76

it was using my 20v 5.0s that I have. Unfortunately I only have a few 20v tools and I want to make sure the batteries get regular use. Next up will be the 20v weed whacker, it’ll get some use over me awesome Echo which deafens me!
