My neighbor was thrilled to buy his but he was so disappointed just blowing his long driveway took him two 8 hour batteries and 2 5's .... that being said he borrowed my EGO did his whole driveway this morning only using 1/2 of my 7.5 battery I've tried to explain to him he uses his Milwaukee day in and day out at work he still said true but this blower is going to kill his battery life fast I kinda of had to agree as in 20mins of blowing his batteries were pretty warm and we all know over heating batteries is a death sentence still though I was impressed when I tried his out .....
I was the guy that emailed you about the new DeWalt 60v blower, but I ended up buying this one instead. Before I got too deep into the yellow brand I decided to go red. Seems, for the most part, Milwaukee reviews better than DeWalt. As I only need a few things for DIY and RV related tasks, I figured I’d just go with/ the better reviewed platform.
I ordered the EGO 765 blower to replace my gas powered Stihl for the heavier backyard clearing; still waiting on that as well. Backordered, also from Acme.@@WorkshopAddict
As much as I love Milwaukee I think they need to add an additional battery to the mix. While I have some 12 AH batteries we're paying a premium to help them limp along with this platform. A $300 blower and $500 in batteries is really pushing the limit for this tool. I should have cut the cord with lawn equipment and not purchased the mower or quick-lock trimmer kits. The higher volt systems are a much better investment an offer more variety. Like a riding mower and snow blower.
The real question is why doesn't Milwaukee go "multi-volt" or "flexvolt" like it's competition? It's a proven idea. I feel like Milwaukee is digging themselves into a hole going the 18x2 route
The whole” you only need one battery” from Milwaukee…is still hilarious to me. As a builder I guarantee you , no company makes cordless tools that can match dewalt 60v tools , still till this day. Milwaukee tools heat up under load and shut down or just plain break, like their new large impact wrench .
dewalt is ass bro. i use to use them for a awhile and they would always heat up. overheated two of my drills. then i switched to milwaukee and it’s on a whole other level 🔥 💯
It's funny because Milwaukee played the whole "we only need one battery" game for a few years refusing to make dual battery tools. Now they're just trying to close the gap with dewalt's power on flexvolt tools.
Bought mine yesterday 🎉

I have found my battery Temps to be awesome on 6ah and higher. Not even warm to the touch. 5s get warm.
I so badly want a Milwaukee blower but man, so costly even with no batteries. Better off just buying an EGO with battery

@@samonaballs123 i agree with you dewalt suck love my milwaukee stuff
@@samonaballs123definitely agree, Milwaukee are superior to Dewalt all day.
These are good for Handy Andy’s and Harry Homeowner. Trash for pro use.
How do you know this?
