    Every EGO gadget I've bought, the self propelled lawn mower, the edger, the weed whacker, has been just great. These products are just what the doctor ordered for us here along the Wasatch Front in Utah, in which our geography makes for the most polluted air in the country at times. Next on my shopping list, the EGO snowblower and probably one of the above too if I discover $1200 in loose change from the couch or something. Suggestion for another EGO gadget: A solar powered recharger at what, maybe 500 Watts? 1000 Watts?

    great review thank you - to bad that they didn't include additional features, i.e. solar input, 12v outlets and 12V input - would have also had RV, camper markets. Could have been perfect for camper vans - power tools and appliances - much more efficient to use 12V directly than going thru ac inverter (typically 20+% loss).

    For emergency situations a small gas generator is still the best.. Mine runs 26 hours straight with one full tank at 60% load which is about 3000w (2 small 1500w heaters) It costs 600$ and will outlast this lithium generator.. I mean, I do like the idea of a lithium generator but reliability and runtime is a big downside for my use case. Either ways, nice video has always 🙂

    Price is same or more than my Honda EU2000 generator. The EGO comes with two batteries and can produce 840 Watt hours of electricity with them, then you need to find somewhere to recharge everything. My Honda holds a hair over 1 gallon of gasoline and produces 5900 Watt hours from that before I have shut it down and add another gallon. EGO unit is a neat thing, but won't be my home standby or anything like that.

    Regarding your hot tub.
    I have had many of those inflatable tubs
    which not only came apart
    but the filter/heater assembly
    ran through costly filters like crazy.
    Not to mention it cost about $100 per month
    to keep it heated, and you had to have it heated
    ALL THE TIME because it took so long to get up
    to temperature.
    My question is: How much power in watts does it take
    you to keep yours heated?
    How long do you have to run your power
    to get it up to the top degree of about 105 degrees?
    Using the bubble jets makes it lose heat because the
    jets are blowing cold air which cools the water.
    You can't just turn on the power and expect hot water
    within a short time.

Also, did you actually run the devices for that amount of time or were you just using the estimates that the Nexus unit tells you for how long it would last with the current batteries plugged into the device? Good video. Thanks.

    • @Kitearmy
      @Kitearmy  5 лет назад

      Thanks mate - for the run times I used only 2 7.5Ah batteries (as it is sold). To test the run time I used a single 7.5Ah battery and ran it down. I then multiplied that by 2 to get the estimate. Though for some of the tests I used the power station estimate. It would have taken to long to fully test all appliances - real time.

    Hi Andrew, i really enjoy your reviews. I’ve learned a lot from watching them. I have a question on the ego nexus powerstation. I recently purchased one. I was thinking and even try calling ego to see what the best way to store the batteries and how to keep them charged when not in used. Can I leave all 4 batteries connected to the unit while not in use, or should I remove them. And also I bought just in case we lose power what is the best way to store the batteries. Should they be stored 100 percent or 50’percent power. Thanks Andrew

    • @Kitearmy
      @Kitearmy  3 года назад

      Thanks mate - The batteries actually do a really slow maintenance on themselves - The most import part is to make sure the batteries don't get to hot or less so to cold - Heat is what kills the cells. The ideal power is about 70-80% but as I said they will reach that on their own. Yes it is okay to leave them on the generator in charge mode - lots of smart tech running that thing

    Do the slots on the power station have built in fans for charging (and maybe even high load discharging) like the chargers do?

    • @Kitearmy
      @Kitearmy  5 лет назад

      I don't think so - the charge rates on the power station are much slower than the high speed chargers

    • @ericcaldwell3584
      @ericcaldwell3584 5 лет назад

      Oh ok. Thanks for the response! How's the charging rate compared to the standard chargers (with only one battery installed)?
      That's kind of a bummer if there's no fan for the batteries. That's what sets those chargers apart from most of the competition in my opinion.
      That power station is still an impressive tool though!
      This may sound ridiculous, but I wonder how much runtime you could get if you had FOUR fully charged 28Ah commercial backpack batteries installed on it with the needed adaptors. That'd be 112Ah! Of course, that'd be stupidly expensive at probably well over 5 grand!
      One guy said that with four 7.5Ah batteries installed, you could only run a fridge for a couple of hours. I'll see if I can find the link to that video.
      EDIT: Here's the link. Skip to about 13:50 and notice the annotations on the video. I don't know how he got to those figures, but anyway.

    My problem with it is it's limited input and output connections. It's only input is a 110v power brick (edit: Kite Army says that there is another connector on the back that may be for solar), on the output side we are limited to older 5v 2.1A USB and 110v. When loaded with an additional 2x 7.5Ah batteries it's price is close to a Goal Zero Yeti 1400 ($1800 Yeti @ full retail* vs ~$1900 EGO) but the Yeti has inputs for solar and additional outputs for 12v DC, 2 USB-C (one 5/12/20v 6A and one 5v 3A) and can be chained to other external batteries for more storage.
    I could get a Yeti, charge my EGO batteries with it, charge my newer phones/devices much faster and power an addition set of items (12v DC). All while recharging from solar. If I was already heavily invested in EGO with multiple batteries and could get the Nexus as a bare tool then it might be attractive but as it is now there are better and more flexible options.

    Hmmm, I’m on the fence about this thing... you need power to charge the batteries to run it, so in a longer outage or multiday camping, you get one shot with your existing batteries if you have no power source, unlike a gas generator.. So that makes this just an expensive tailgating prop for a few hours of use.
    I’m also worried about Ego moving to 80v or 100/120v from 56v...will everything they have become obsolete? I wanted an Ego snow blower last week as we are in an extended winter and ZERO are available to purchase anywhere, online or in store. Makes me think they are going to move up in voltage.

    I know that you mention if have four 7.5ah batteries installed on the EGO NEXUS POWER STATION you get 2000 watts - my question is how do you get this to 3000 watts?

This is bleeding into my Dewalt powerstation 1800 area.... app seems awesome... $1200 dollars however is an issue. I can get 6-8 x 12amp dewalt batteries..... maybe they will sell it barebone without batteries for $499 then i will buy one... for now...

      @ImaITman 5 лет назад +2

      Problem with the DeWalt. The way the power station batteries run are the weakest battery shuts the whole thing down regardless of whether the other batteries have charge left. I'm guessing Ego was smart enough to overcome this due to Andrew saying you can run it on a single battery.

    • @Kitearmy
      @Kitearmy  5 лет назад

      I think the answer is yes - you can hot swap in a battery. This would be a great future test

      During discussion of fridge run time, I saw the figure "200 watts" flash on the screen. Assuming watts = amps*volts, don't most fridges require something more like 700 watts? If so, how many hours would a *typical* fridge with 700-800 running watts requirement be able to run?

    If it was a UPS, it would be a game changer. Plug in my router and internet into it... use this to charge my batteries...if the power goes out, my plugs go uninterruptable to the batteries. That would make this a game changer.
