What happens here

Addressing the concern of running out of power on a job site without access to electrical outlets, EGO has developed a portable power bank. This unit, powered by a large 40 Amp-hour battery, functions as a mobile charging station. It connects to the EGO system in the same way as the stationary charging docks, allowing users to quickly swap out depleted handheld tool batteries and charge them on-site. For example, a 5 Amp-hour battery, commonly used in string trimmers or other handheld tools, can be fully charged in just 30 minutes. This eliminates the need for cords, generators, or nearby power outlets, providing unprecedented flexibility and continuous operation for commercial landscapers.

Goal: To provide power on the go, EGO introduces a portable power bank, essentially a mobile fuel tank for batteries. This power bank utilizes a 40 Amp-hour high-capacity battery to rapidly charge handheld tool batteries (e.g., a 5 Ah battery in 30 minutes) without the need for external power sources, offering complete mobility.

What they say

Hide

the go uh during the day um the way this solution is enabled is through a a 40 amp hour high-capacity battery so quite literally once you've got this fully Juiced up you can turn around and as you're depleting the energy on your handheld Power Plus batteries you can simply pop those on here and what you've got here is dual 700 uh watt turbochargers so 5 a hour battery for example which you're often times using a string trimmer hand yep uh 30 minute charge time on the go no cords no power required completely mobile it's basically like carrying a gas tank with you and when your trimmer runs out of gas here's your gas tank you pop it in boom Bob's your uncle but how many of these will this charge so think of it in terms of a budget of energy so if this is a 40 amp hour battery you're basic you basically have a budget of 40 amp hours to charge however you want so if that's four yeah four 10 a hour batteries so be it and if they're 5 amp hour batteries you get eight exactly so you basically got this is like your gas tank right here you know how many how many gallons of gas you got and here's what each one of your your trimmers HS that's right and there's another benefit to that too you just got to think of it differently you guys it's not like it's it's worse cuz it's battery is just think of the power draw differently and California's now requiring Battery tech freaking Minnesota I think I'm going to run for I'm going to run for something in Minnesota I think you get a lot of votes cuz I'm telling you right now to take away our gas option is BS but at least there's companies like you that are coming out with Solutions because whether we like it or not it's getting taken away from us and it's coming across the board across different states it's coming for sure so we're we're trying to enable solutions that help help these guys make these transitions without breaking the bank without adding a lot of complexity and without being really difficult to operate all right there you go all right Mia what are we
