Soon! This is our newest innovation. You can now escape the garage and use your EGO batteries for more than just powering your lawn and garden tools.
Although they don’t specify what type of tools, they suggest that the 56V batteries will be more powerful than current lawn mowers. I believe they will release cordless power tools powered by their 56V batteries.
This news is double sided as new cordless power tools are great however the downside is that Ego 56V batteries are huge compared to traditional 18V batteries. Even Ego compact 2.0 batteries weigh more than a larger 18V 12.0 battery. So while Ego could make just about any cordless power tool to run on their 56V battery if they wanted, they need to be careful with which tools to make that make use of such a large battery. It wouldn’t make sense to make an impact driver or drill that is powered by their batteries. Their batteries would make small, compact tools too heavy and bulky. So it makes sense that if they do make power tools, they need to make something like saws, maybe a high powered circular saw or large recip saw where their larger batteries wouldnt stand out and make perfect sense.
Lets see what they type of new cordless tools they will make. What do you guys think they will come up with? Comment below.
