Solar Powered chainsaw-Maybe...

What happens here

The presenter concludes with a comprehensive discussion about the full potential and versatility of the EGO Power+ off-grid system. He emphasizes that all EGO tools can run off the same battery system, which can be continuously recharged by the solar panel connected to the EGO Nexus Power Station. He highlights the system's ability to power various tools (lawnmowers, snow blowers, leaf blowers, weed trimmers) and appliances (lights, fans, TVs, refrigerators) without relying on traditional grid power. He discusses the concept of battery rotation and the possibility of scaling the system with multiple batteries and larger solar panels to sustain an entire off-grid house or campground, emphasizing the system's practicality and asking for viewer feedback on such a vision. He demonstrates swapping out a battery from the power station and noting how quickly another battery begins charging, illustrating the intelligent battery management of the Nexus system.

Goal: Explore the comprehensive off-grid capabilities and future scalability of the EGO Power+ ecosystem.

Tools and materials

  • EGO Batteries EGO — Powering EGO tools and providing storage for the power station
  • EGO Nexus Power Station EGO — Providing a central power hub for various electrical needs
  • EGO Power+ 16" Cordless Chainsaw EGO — As an example of a tool powered by the system
  • EGO Solar Panel EGO — Recharging the battery system from solar energy

so now technically anything eagle has will run off from this same battery which is now being charged i got a bank of four of them being charged by the sun right over there so in a way this is not just a video about a solar powered chainsaw but it's about a solar powered lawn mower snow blower solar powered weed whip leaf blower the ego now has a light that i have i use inside of the thing because it's it hooks directly up to the solar panel i mean i took a it took about three to four days to charge those batteries up from missile charge yeah i know just from wearing them down they weren't totally empty so i bet if you had like a bank of six or seven of those you could rotate because yeah i watch tv all night long i turned it off this morning accidentally left it on i fell asleep with the tv and the vcr running and that's that plenty of juice left yeah yeah if your guy had you had three of them setups you'd be good three and two guy would go six or six setups six because then you could power all the tools you want i mean like you could work run tools all day long yep yeah and then charge it up and then and then every bank would charge it up because you'll go through about probably a a whole pack of batteries a day if you're like us and you're going to be out working all day long and if it takes three days to charge up a system if you know what i mean yeah so if you had six you'd have enough to charge to run whatever you want and constantly work without delay yep big do we got an oak in there or anything yeah this should be one of them littler ones oh that's a maple maples yeah maples that's hard wood all right so what are we doing frankie we got a maple right yeah all right those battery powered chainsaws just have instant torque yeah they got plenty plenty there as long as you got a sharp chain i think you would make it oh you know this is good just as good as what it's a gas okay so if you had a sharp chain on both gas and battery which one would you take yes would you why's that get more done what do you mean i'll get more done i think the rpms on the gas is faster i think if uh i could cut more wood with a gas and i couldn't battery but i'm not complaining about the battery i'm just saying i could probably cut more with gas okay so if you were out in the middle of the woods yep and you couldn't go back and shower yeah and you had to cut wood all day long and breathe in them fumes remember we did that video where we were breathing in them fumes now which…
