I'd expect that would make snow cleanup for most folks easier. I'm in Colorado Springs and we occasionally get dumped on, I'd imagine I'll need to dig out my old but still useful Troybilt gas power 24" snowblower for larger/wet snow. I'll use this 40v one for smaller snow so I don't end up smelling like 2 stroke before going to work in the mornings after a storm.
Everyone's needs and conditions are different, but again, this would be great for most folks.
EDIT: As a note, when I ordered just a few minutes ago, the price was $149!

Also appears the batteries are only good down to 7F, any lower they will turn themselves off and must be warmed up to keep going (which is counter intuitive for a snow blower.)
Again, though, this is great deal for most people and average needs, IMO.

but having 2 80v batteries for each mowing and blowing.... thats a good time.
(This is for the 80v version. I dont expect great things from a 40v)
- the plastic auger isnt actually that bad. But the plastic chute is JUNK. it will often mis-align or break when trying to change the angle of snow exiting...and its already bad enough that you have to bend over to change it. The rotation pole broke so often that I just gave up on it and just turn the chute manually too.
- The metal bumper pieces (i dont know the term...but theyre like tiny skis?) which protect the unit while sliding on your driveway break away very easily, leaving the whole front of unit exposed to wear during use.
- The usual nonsense with a single-stage of any type...if snow is too wet, and especially if it is too high, the machine will clog and you will have to buck it like a mechanical bull to un-clog it.
- Snow sticks to the inside of the chute often (you can apply WD-40 or the like to prevent this, but youll need to do it often
Battery life ironically, actually isnt an issue at all; I have a short-ish driveway, and can finish with 1.5 2Ah batteries.
At the end of the day, this is nowhere close to the paradigm-changer that the lawn mower is. I heard that E-Go has a better electric thrower, but ive never seen it on sale...
GL.
Anyone who has this , please comment.
1. How long does the battery last ?

I've been telling myself that I am gonna find a cheap snow blower for the past 2 seasons. I'd say this is cheap enough. We are supposed to get snow on Wednesday so I will try it out and return if needed.
