- 10 Brands: Ryobi, EGO, Milwaukee 18 and 36V, Dewalt 20V and 60V, Greenworks, Atlas 80V, Makita, Enhulk. Battery powered air blowers tested for maximum air speed, CFM, run time, leaf and wood chip removal speed, noise, weight and tool balance. Finally, air blowers used as a propulsion system on a bicycle. I purchased all of the leaf blowers to ensure an unbiased review. So, thank you for supporting the channel.

The leaf blower bicycle literally made why whole day turn around, your tests are unbeatable, unbiased and fun to watch. Thanks for another great video!
I am willing to bet that all men who own a leaf blower have used it as some sort of 'engine' for transportation. Me and my neighbors have raced using our leaf blowers while on a skateboard and yes it was a waste of time but it was fun. In my honest opinion, leaf blower racing should be an Olympic event.
For me it was the skateboard test.
You are welcome!
You are right on all counts! Please do have that great day. You deserve it.
I have used my Ego to clean the house right out the front door, serious.
For a more realistic test, blow the leaves on to your neighbor's lawn. And preferably use the blower early in the morning or late at night.
Lmfao
Or in my neighbor’s case, out into the middle of the road and walk away.
Yeah I’ve got a neighbor like you 😡
We bought the ryobi blower (40) volt. 170$ at home depot 5 years ago! It’s almost as good as our stihl gas unit!! Fantastic work!! This is the channel for all hard working Americans!🥳🥳😘
I’m sure this has been suggested a bunch of times and is also weather-dependent, but a snow blower video comparing gas and electric blowers would be so awesome!
Thanks for the suggestion.
I absolutely love this channel. It cuts through all the marketing BS we're all bombarded with on the boxes.
I genuinely appreciate this channel.
Much appreciated!
Simple creative testing methods, often with some humor involved, always pleases me.
Always on point and very thorough. I check here before I make my purchases
Yep! Saved me from a few bad choices and saved me a lot of time on many good choices.
Agree. Den of Tools is another favorite along with Torque Test Channel.
I don’t think I’m alone in here with saying I always get amped up when Project Farm drops a new video. His tests are always very thorough and practical with a slight dash of tomfoolery mixed in. Well done!
Thank you!
Whenever I see the new video notification, I'm like, "Ok, what am I buying today"
Question is...how amped? 2? 4 amps?
I couldn’t agree more!!! Informative, interesting and humorous. Love it!
i've heard of this channel but never really watched intently. He in anybodys pocket?
Very happy with my 1st gen EGO. There wasn’t much selection back then, but the 3 year battery warranty sold me. It replaced a electric blower that I spent more time with the cord than actually using the blower. The battery hasn’t diminished much over time and does fine for my porch and sidewalk and also drying my cars after washing them.
Thanks for the feedback.
I’ve been extremely happy with my ego hedge trimmer. Had it for a while now with zero issues. Grabbed the ego blower recently and it’s been awesome also.
I had a Ego string trimmer and wanted another 2.5AH battery. It was cheaper to go to Home Depot and buy a leftover 1st gen blower with 2.0AH battery and charger since they were selling for $90. The battery failed in about a year since it was sitting on HD shelf for who knows how long. Ego sent me a 2.5AH battery for free with no problem. I wish I had a bigger battery for the blower but couldn't beat the price!
@@toddac61 👍🏼 glad it worked out for you. I grabbed the blower with the largest battery. 5.0?? The trimmer came with the 2.5. And it’s been working great for years. The 5.0 battery is really heavy though.
I think mine might be 1st gen too, 580 cfm, purchased 10/2018.
Very pleased with it as a home leaf, grass clipping and light snow blower. Partly for the convenience. It just hangs on a hook inside the garage door and makes for quick easy cleanup.
I later bought the string trimmer (have a couple hundred feet to trim) and equally pleased.
I'm really proud of this guy!!!!! A legend to the fellow consumer.
Time, effort, expertise, funds, etc. to make videos that views suggested.
I have bought a few items that I needed in the past including the Ego 765 leaf blower all because of him and I am truly appreciative seeing that they have all performed so well.
Keep up the excellent work!!!!!!!
Thanks!
Sundays aren’t complete without Project Farm!
Thank you very much!
No it’s not. Love it
So true! In the 80s/90s it was Saturday morning cartoons. Now it’s Project Farm Sundays!!
I agree!!
Right there with you. I look forward to this all week.
I love the duality of going from a ridiculous shot of him zooming by on the bicycle, and then immediately back in to data and graphs xD
Thank you very much! Had a lot of fun on this one!
@@ProjectFarm That was one expensive bicycle! I laughed out loud and just about spit out my lunch!!
Love your work!!!
The value you provide in these videos is fantastic. Best channel out there. Would like to see more in the battery-operated lawn tool category, with the Toro Flex-Force line included! Thanks again.
Thanks! Thanks for the suggestion.
This is the kind of video the shop guys & I like to watch on downtimes. I just picked up the Greenworks 80V and I could not be grinning any harder. Especially with Costco's 8yr warranty partnering up with Greenworks. Fist bump on this video. Thanks for what you do!
Thanks!
As with many others, the bicycle test, going 32mph really made my day. I'm betting your neighbors get the biggest chuckle watching you do some of these tests, especially with the farmabago zipping through the field. I love your channel and always look forward to the next one.
Thanks for sharing!
Funny thing is IIRC Tech Ingredients did a fan mounted on a bike and not sure why did that much better for all the enginerding.
@@boots7859 to go 30 mph you do better with a huge fan blowing at 40 mph than a little nozzle blowing at 150 mph. Once the mph is higher than you need, getting the CFM up does more good.
Way back when I used to ride a bicycle everyday, I once had a 30 mph tail win and decided to see how fast I could go pedaling on top of that. Scared the crap out of me.
I agree . 💯
The leaf blower powered bicycle is AMAZING. On top of your already top-notch content. It really brought the video together! I love the fact that you put the speedo up there. > 30mph, VERY impressive!!!
VERY IMPRESSIVE!
Wasn’t expecting him to go that fast tbh lol
The 27mph is indeed impressive. The power needed to drive a bicycle down the road rises enormously with speed. The wind resistance goes through the roof. It really takes off in the 20s.
I’m waiting for how the Farmabago will do with 10 leaf blowers acting as a supercharger :) Need so see some 1/4-mile times :)
The bicycle leaf blower propulsion test should be a standard part of any leaf blower testing!
Thanks!
The blowcycle sounds like it has a turbofan engine!
I got my Ego yesterday & hoped I would be happy. After watching your video I am.
Thank you
I appreciate the fun you have while making some of these videos. Testing thousands of products for thousands of hours can become boring. Thanks for all the time and effort put into this channel!
My pleasure!
@@ProjectFarm I KNEW IT!!! He owns Chick-fil-A!
This mans is taking RUclips reviews to a whole other level. This is among the best videos I’ve ever seen!
I’d love to see a comparison of all the best cordless tools against the best corded tools to see what kind of gap is out there for price/performance/convenience.
Thanks! Thanks for the suggestion.
considering all the junk, trash talk and triggered rhetorcial replies Project Farm is a breath of fresh air
Bought the Ego blower on your recommendation, and it works great on the leaves, long pine needles, and 2 or 3 inches of snow. I’m also surprised how fast the battery charges up on the regular charger. Thank you!
You are welcome!
Thank you so much for all your hard work testing these. :)
Love the bike test too, fun to watch. :)
Take care!
Thanks and you are welcome!
The skateboard time test may be my favorite test method ever, lol. Great example of power to weight ratio for those of us who have gone electric to save our wrists and elbows. Likewise the balance test was brilliant, that was clearly never a factor for the ryobi engineers... And I loved the sound of the bike fly by! Very impressive !
Thanks!
That test reminded me of the jet engine drag cars at the strip 😄
I wonder if the orientation of the nozzle had any effect (like swept headers on a Funny Car 😄)
@@peacefrog0521 testing the difference with nozzles could have been interesting. I used to have a blower that had a wobbling tip, wonder how that would do on a skate board lol
I have the this Ryobi blower and never noticed the balance of it was that off. When blowing with it on it feels natural and faces downward.
@@joshb5809 so ryobi is the only one who considered the balance while in operation? Wouldn't surprise me too much
The amount of work that goes into these is admirable. The smallest components of his videos must take entire days to prepare.
Thanks!
Holy crap, I've never in my life seen a channel like yours! You take reviews to the extreme, and i love it. You've earned yourself a sub sir! 👍🏾
Thanks! Thanks for watching and subscribing!
Your tests are always impressive and the bike test was just icing on the cake. Great work. 👍
Thanks!
I've never owned a leaf blower and most likely will never do. But I've watched the entire thing start to end because just I admire the quality, detail and relevance of all the tests that are being put together for each review. I feel like I'm in a lab. Fantastic job @Project Farm
Thanks!
A leaf blower is something you never knew you wanted
@@beanybeansable Still slower than a grandma with a good rake though. And, with a rake you do much less walking around to get the leafs going in the desired direction. Additionally, after you gathered the leafs with a blower you still need the rake to get them off the ground and into the cart or sack.
@@pflaffik not a chance and maybe for leaves it could be.
But i have a large under cover exposed aggregate surface i use the blower to sweep it. so so good.!
@@beanybeansable True, I never thought to use it for clearing the snow off my vehicles and around my home till I saw a video with someone doing that.
This was the best one in a while, Todd! I'm blown away at how thorough you were and how well the graphs were organized. The leaf blower bike was an awesome touch.
Thanks!
Blown away eh?
Yeah, seeing you so matter of factly announce the bicycle test along with the scientific quantifiable stuff made me LOL. I love the practical applications and measurable data along with the humor you occasionally slip in.
I gotta say it man, you are the best channel on RUclips. Your testing is by far the best and most engaging on the platform and you always find fun extras to add. Absolute ace!
Thanks so much!
I always love your videos, as I believe you're the best content creator on RUclips. Always great unbiased real world information. I very much appreciate you. As a side note, when you strapped all of those blowers to the bike I laughed out loud. That was hilarious. Thank you, sir.
Thanks and you are welcome!
This dude impresses the heck out of me in every single episode. You know you are legit when everyone is saying they admire your ideas and look forward to your tests. Especially with products that each of us use often. How must that feel? It must feel amazing 🙏🏼
We are a young couple just buying our first house. These videos have been absolutely invaluable to us. You have saved me a huge of time, money and frustrating research, sir.
Thank you very much from both of us!
You are welcome! Glad to hear!
Todd is what us old timers call the MAN
1000% AGREE! Project Farm is the BEST place on the whole Internet if you want quality reviews with no bias and only factual testing. I never buy anything without checking Project Farm First!

Same!!! We had to start a toolkit and I’ve been building it with his recommendations for the most part lol.
My favorite part of all of your videos is the “we’re gonna test that”. Seriously though, thank you for always putting so much effort into creating such quality, unbiased content!
You are so welcome!
I’ve been eyeing up the Ego blower and now you confirmed it for me. Thank you for all of your hard work !
You are welcome!
The overall ranking chart at the end was very helpful because it allows us to easily compare "best in show" across all categories. Please keep including these "overall ranking" charts. Thanks for the videos!
You are welcome! Thanks for the suggestion.
hard agree on the overall charts that consolidate all the research. part of what makes doug demuro's car reviews so effective as well

The amount of data in those last charts is staggering, and must have been a real pain to work with, especially considering you release one of these a week! Very impressive!
Thanks!
I see what you did there!
This affirmed my purchase of the Ego 765, great work!
Thanks!
You truly have the best reviews/comparisons on the internet! So glad I found your channel.
Thanks!
Superb as always! Hilarious all those blowers attached to the bicycle. I could just imagine what the neighbors thought when they saw you flying down the street. LOL. Thanks for the video!
Thanks and you are welcome!
Never thought about the balance aspect of each tool. Thanks so much for the input there
You are welcome!
Seeing the bike brought me so much joy. I love seeing you get to have fun with these reviews!
Thanks! Glad to hear!
Always adds some fun to the day. Don't know how you do it, but I hope you can keep it up forever! Good fun and fantastic info. I sincerely wish I had had you in my labs a couple of decades ago. Inventive, methodical, with an amazing attitude. Best of luck to you and yours. Cheers!
Thanks so much!
I actually think the skateboard test was valid and helpful. I would be torn between the Ryobi because is so much quieter and the Ego. But it really comes down to what you already have purchased so you can use the same batteries.
I can tell you how. Fatigue. As a painter using Airless sprayers, I use different sized machines for different jobs, different pressures and different tips. A large machine running full bore moving a lot of paint, puts a lot of back pressure on your hand-arm-shoulder, and it can be tiresome trying to do that the whole day. Meanwhile, the little machines are a cake walk.
In my mind, the heavier the unit, and faster the airspeed, is more fatigue. So I'm sure there is a calculation to find the most (objectively) comfortable blower to use.
it’s all depends on what you use it for, i use my blower to dry my car after a wash. i bought the ryobi whisper series and works well. if i were to purchase again i would go ego because they have the stubby nose attachment
Thanks for the feedback.
That's why I'm DeWalt forever. But I don't use the 60v for leaves, we use it for cleaning.
It's actually a pretty clear thrust-to-weight test. If you're looking for maximum push for the weight you lug around, this test settles that.
My wife bought me an EGO last year after researching for a few hours. Now she feels even more validated!
Thanks for sharing!
One might even say she got a boost to her _ego_ ?
@@ram89572buh dum tsk
Wow, what an amazing comparison between brands. You thought of every test I’d want! Thank you so much for this!
You are welcome!
i was just about to suggest this, seems the other viewers beat me to it and project farm has delivered another beauty
This test was perhaps the most timely you’ve ever produced. Especially with autumn upon us. I need a battery leaf blower to replace my very old echo 2-cycle and have been researching. This video just shortcut my research time down to a few minutes and gave me the perfect result. Ego for the win. THANK YOU, Todd!!!
You are welcome!
Get that ego. Best thing I have ever ever bought. I got it for no particular reason either. Never been more happy with any purchase I have made in my life. Not kidding
Problem is Ego's customer service is terrible.
You will love the ego mine is more powerful than my dad's gas powered!
I have an ego and love it. its a great tool.
I worked at Lowes for 8 years,when greenworks came out I laughed, well here I am many years later with multiple greenworks products including a 60v leaf blower which has better balance and it still works like a boss.Great video as always
Thanks! Thanks for sharing.
I never knew they were a competitive brand until recently. I always would pass up their products because I wasn't sure they made a good product. This is why videos like his are so important.
Ego all the way! Whatever the brand, all battery powered tools has been amazing so far. No gasoline smell in the garage or fumes when running. No need to run to the store for oil or gas too
They are also much quiter!
@@christopherhendricks4369 try there 24v systems i have impact wrench, drill,and reciprocating saw and I work maintenance at a grocery store...lots of shopping cart repairs and other horrible things ,haven't let me down..and I have kobalt as well. Greenworks is a beast
Been using Greenworks 80v for 7 years now on the original 2Ah and 4Ah battery. Still runs strong, no problems at all. Have 8 of their tools.
Another great video. Been using my older Milwaukee to keep the leaves at bay in the far reaches of the gutter system. Works like a charm.
Thanks! Thanks for sharing.
I was blown away by your great review!
Really want to see battery powered push mowers tested. There's definitely huge differences in performance between brands. And would like to see them all compared to a cheap gas powered push mower (especially since some claim to out perform gas).
Thanks for the suggestion.
That one might get pricey for him, although I suppose he could sell them used afterwards
@@Foxinthetree it'd be cool if he was able to find people that actually wanna buy a particular one and he'd buy, test it and then hand them off. The torque test channel does that sometimes for their tests but push mowers are probably a bit too big to ship
I do think a good battery unit would look good short term vs a gas unit, but I don’t think it could compete at all over the long term.
@@Foxinthetree SEE EDIT BELOW
Yeah big investment. Selling afterwards could be an option, as would accepting loaners from other people, though might be difficult to get so many borrowed at the same time, and they'd all be in an unknown used state. Another option might be to make an exception to the "purchased myself" rule and reach out to manufacturers to ask for T&E units he can compare. I'd personally be completely fine with making an exception to his rule in this case.
I can imagine a test like this, out of pocket and before resale, costing well over $20k, depending on the number of contenders.
edit: For some reason I thought the original comment was about _riding mowers_ but it was actually for _push mowers_ , so that moots my entire comment. He could purchase a really solid lineup of higher end battery powered push mowers for 5k - similar to the cost of a single battery powered riding mower on its own. This should not be too big of a deal.
The Project Farm content has set the bar for a RUclips review channel. I’ve yet to see this guy’s equal.
Kudos!
I suggested this to you several months back! I’m so glad you reviewed this because I have been waiting and I haven’t bought one yet. Perfect timing because my yard is getting a lot of leaves in it over the past couple of days. Thanks again!! I like that you added the leaf blower bicycle in the review. Made me laugh lol.
You are welcome! Glad you enjoyed!
I bought my grandfather a Ryobi 40V leaf blower for Christmas last year. He really likes it, and I've had the chance to use it a few times, and we're both happy with it.
For the price, I think the Atlas turned out pretty impressive!
The atlas is pretty good but the 80V batteries cost $120 a piece
Thanks for the feedback.
Agreed. I wish that Hercules and atlas were the same brand tho, seems like harbor freight is stepping it up with those but them being separated by batteries is a mistake. Atlas seems to be doing very well and Hercules has proven solid too
Great testing strategies, very realistic approach. I hope everyone appreciates the amount of work you put into all of your reviews. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you very much!
I can always count you to have a video on any tool Im thinking about buying. Great video!
Thanks!
I have no intention of buying half the products you test and yet I find myself watching from start to finish. Great content.
Thanks for watching! You are welcome!
I'm really glad you did the bike-test, this is a very important criteria that is barely recognized!
lol. Thank you!!
How long do you think it will be before we see the "leaf blower on a bicycle trick" in a movie or on some kind of online jackass stunt?
@@ProjectFarm and it worked great! I'm seriously amazed
@@goodun2974 a year tops. I can imagine a movie with Ryan Gosling on a highspeed chase with a bike with 20 leaf blowers (48V)
You have me sold on the Ego kit. Looks like you had some fun making this video. I certainly had fun watching it. Thanks :)
Glad you enjoyed it!
This video was very informative I had to watch it twice so much information so fast thank you keep doing what you do
You delivered a great comparison, with far more laughs than expected! I cannot thank you enough for what you do. Considering Ego tools usually finish in the mid-back of the pack, I was not expecting these results. The skateboard race was silly, yet somehow useful; but I really can't believe you found the fastest electric bike, that's not even on the market! 10/10
Thanks for the feedback!
I think Ego just released this, so presumably they had a target to come out on top. I hope their testing included the bicycle test.
I'm pretty impressed with the 36V Milwaukee, looking at the longevity test. Even with two, that's a bit of a stretch for what started as a drill battery.
Most reviews of ego I've seen have generally had it at the top... At least with the mowers, blowers, and string trimmers
I'm not sure I've seen one EGO review where it didn't win. I know the string trimmer lost points for him cause the motor is in the head, but removing the guard fixes that
The leaf blower jet powered bicycle made my day. I couldn’t stop laughing. I really appreciated the excellent quality of the test procedures as I do on all your videos. I predicted the ego was going to be the best from having used one of their string trimmers, which is not a comparable machine but it works so superbly that I based my prediction on the manufacturer
Glad you enjoyed it!
Good to know! I was an early greenworks adopter, with many of their tools, including their string trimmer that can use any of the ryobi style gas attachments like polesaw and hedge trimmer. Think I will stick with it! Thanks for a great and complete review
Thanks and you are welcome!
Loved this test I’m actually in the market for one so now I’ve got all the information I need. Thank you so much!
You are so welcome!
Todd!
The leaf blower bicycle test was what I literally came to see!
I ABSOLUTELY love the tests you do. ZERO biased.
You're doing a good job, man!
Thanks for sharing!
Putting 'literally' in that sentence doesn't help things.
Never cease to amaze me with all your wonderful tests. You are the man 🙏🚜
Thanks!
Good to know I made a good choice in purchasing the EGO blower. Though I would've been fine even without this great result as I'm well invested in the EGO platform with several of their products, most recently their 2 stage thrower. looking forward to some snow. tested the blower out a week ago and it blew around the leaves and debris quite well, especially with a 10ah pack.
BTW, nice E-bike.
I really love this channel. Informative, concise, and occasionally just a little bit of extra fun thrown in. Keep up the good work!
Your thoroughness of testing strategy is always stellar. I got a giggle with the tease of your blower powered bicycle, but I nearly busted a gut laughing out loud on the first skateboard trial. You chasing after that first one was priceless! 😂🤣Thanks for the video.
Thanks and you are welcome!
I wish the XGT blower was in this video, but the bicycle test more than made up for it 🤣
Invaluable work you do for everyone here, as someone who heavily researches my purchases, your videos have come up more times than I can count and have always helped steer me in the right direction all while being as perfectly thorough as I need and even entertaining, thank you.
You are welcome!
Great video as always. Been a fan of your stuff for a long time!
Thanks! Thanks for sharing!
During the EGO introduction, you referred to it as a Ryobi twice. But that minor misspeak aside, you're doing the Lord's work putting out this amazing content with your very very well thought it testing procedures for these comprehensive comparisons.
his VERY IMPRESSIVE!
I noticed that as well, that aside, PF does some amazing reviews.
The bike test was the only test that I didn't realize I needed most of all.
My old Toro electric blower is super weak but has been a champ for 10 years now and it's time for an upgrade so I've got that EGO bookmarked. It would be cool to see a follow up video with the top three from this video vs some of the gas powered rivals from Poulan pro, Husqvarna, Echo, etc. to see if they're just as good. I'm willing to bet it'll be closer than people think.
Toros new electric blower is very powerful and uses the same battery system as the snowblower I have from them, making it a good purchase for me. Would have been nice to see it in this lineup
The battery powered units can’t compete with gas on runtime.
And the cost of batteries over the years can’t compete with the cost of gas.
im curious as to the power vs battery and gas
@@mmaimmortals
Gas, oil, spark plugs, air filters, carburetors, pull starters/recoils,... Your time to maintain those things/get gas (ethanol free), need a gas can, stabilize it or buy small quantities more often.
If you're already on a platform with batteries & you don't need much runtime, they're excellent.
It's the same thing with battery powered weedwackers & chainsaws, they all have their place.
@@adamjames1375
I would agree that having the platform makes a huge difference.
But I’ve run gas equipment for years and the expense to maintain just isn’t that much.
One battery typically costs way more than three or four years worth of maintenance. - about $8/yr gas, $8/5 yrs spark plug, $10 / 5 yrs filter. That’s only $58 in 5 years.
Hard to imagine spending that little on batteries for tools used regularly over 5 years.
And batteries don’t actually last all that long when used regularly.
So, many people can’t compare a cordless drill to a weed eater, when they use one every great once in a while for a few minutes and the other 15 to 20 times a year and run the batteries to near depletion.
Another great video. Thanks for all the time you put in.
Say.. have you ever done a video on Snow blowers?
I'm glad ya got to hookem all up to a bike, now that looks like fun! Thanks for ya hard work and strong review ethic's.
A lot of fun and sort of scary at the some time trying to stop the bike while getting pushed pretty hard from the blowers. The bike's brakes were at maximum capacity. lol
@@ProjectFarm usually the funnest things are a little scary tho eh?
Very helpful content again, my friend. Great summary and the bike looked to be a blast. The whole video was truly a breath of fresh air
Thanks!
Very impressive how you find various ways to test stuff, including test equipment and test rigs.
Thanks!
Literally almost bought a leaf blower yesterday. So glad I waited!
Perfect! Hope this video helps you decide!
Your tests are always amazing. Innovative and puts the tools to real life tests, but still in a very controlled and "scientific" way. And the occational goofing around like the bike ride is a nice treat. Keep up the good work, regards from Sweden.
Thank you!
appreciated your analytical and complete testing.
Thanks!
I hope you had as much fun making this video as we did watching it! Well done!
Thanks!
I've never really given a second glance to the Harbor Freight Atlas series... But I'm pretty impressed by the performance versus price.
I've been using the Greenworks 40v system for over 5 years now and it served my needs well.
I'll be comparing the Atlas tools to the other options when I get ready to upgrade.
In the Chinese manf. world, there are a handful of big companies that make 90% of all the Big Name brands. HF could sell really almost clones of DeWalts, Makita, Millwaukee or whomever, IF they wanted to pay the additional cost for that quality level.
The do this once in a while like they did the with Earthquake Rev. 1 a couple years ago that AvE tore down. A while after, after the PR bump and they sold out, they dinked them back down a couple notches in Cost Engineering, but kept the price.
HF has a Marketing Dept. that is pretty smart, they will get an almost identical clone in stock, and compare it the same looking Market Leader in the comparison ads, and people just see that they look the same, but the price is 20% less, so.....
Definitely deserves mention for pushing above it's price even if battery cost is excluded.
I generally avoid HF power tools because they haven't held up for me in the past. Haven't tried their battery powered products for fear of experiencing the same issues.
I have the atlas 80v lawnmower & weed trimmer plus 40v blower. Let me tell you, i cut my front yard with all 3 and the 1 dual 40/80v battery that i have does it all with sometimes still having maybe half battery when done. Give em a try yall won't be disappointed plus you're saving money so it's already a win win
I have atlas blower, mower, whacker, and pole saw and i like them all.
If anyone is wondering about how the Kobalt 80v blower would compare (I have one myself), it is essentially the same as the Greenworks blower tested in the video. Greenworks makes both and the main difference is that Kobalt is just a private label that Greenworks makes for Lowes.
Thanks for sharing.
And the Hart lol

The skateboard test was all I needed to see. Your best video yet.
Thanks!
Another great video , you put so much work and effort on these videos , I'm always impressed . BTW, that bike ride looked pretty fun 😂
Thanks! It was fun!
I am always amazed with the variety of test you come up with in such a short time. Great job once again, and the leaf blower bike was the icing on top. 👍
Thanks!
Thanks Todd. I took a chance on the 765 EGO this year my first ego tool and I couldn't be happier. It's nice it comes with a decent battery.
That is awesome! You are welcome!
I didn't know I needed a leaf blower bicycle until now, thank you. You made my whole day better.
You are welcome! Glad to hear!
The bicycle test was the most awesome thing I’ve seen you do. Wish I could give this ‘two thumbs up’ but Siskel and Ebert took that already.
You know when you put a lot of time and love into making your videos for your viewers when you start to get names mixed up lol. As always you are my go to when it comes to choosing a new power tool! You sold me on the Dewalt weed eater and that’s exactly what I bought. And I am pleased
Thanks!
Thanks! I bought an EGO leaf blower a couple years ago and it has served me well. It was my first leaf blower, and I wanted the absolute best one, so I researched for at least 10 hours before deciding on it. I'm glad to see it holds up as your #1 pick! Thanks for an informative and entertaining video!
Thanks and you are welcome!
@@ProjectFarm ive got an ego chainsaw and was on the fence about buying the blower/trimmer combo but now i am sold
Excellently done as always
Thanks!
Great review as usual with a bit of fun thrown in.
Thanks!
You always provide the reviews of products that people really use. Your channel is the best and make buying decisions much easier. Thank you!
You are welcome!
Yeah, I've made many purchase decisions based solely on project farm videos. Definitely makes you feel much more confident in your decision.
I have come to rely on Project Farm for tool reviews. You've done impact drivers, but I was hoping to get to see something with oil pulse drivers and comparing them to standard impact drivers.
Thanks for the suggestion.
Fantastic, thorough review. Thank you!
Thanks and you are welcome!
Great informative video. I was pleased my Ryobi performed well.
Thanks! Thanks for the feedback.
Great test! It would be really interesting to see how these stack up against gas powered handheld and backpack blowers.
I have a Stihl BR600 Magnum backpack blower. It claims a max airspeed of 238 mph and I believe it, the thing's a monster. I also got a Dewalt blower for wifey to use (already fully invested in that platform or I would have bought an Ego)
Love this Channel! Never disappoints and great reviews on products!
Thanks so much!
@@ProjectFarm your most welcome =D
Said it before but worth saying again,you are the BEST comparison reviewer on youtube! Thank you
I've been looking for a leaf blower. Thank you for the non biases show you have some of the greatest test I've seen.
You are welcome!
