DELTA Pro sports a 3.6kWh capacity that can be expanded all the way to 25kWh. The kicker? You can integrate it directly with your home circuits via the Smart Home Panel. Ideal for home backup.

Reuse the batteries between all of your EGO products. This does a great job edging the yard after you finish mowing. I also have their chainsaw and cultivator attachment, which makes this even better.

I LOVE this thing ... that's not something I ever thought I'd say about a mower, but it's true. Quieter than a gas mower. No fumes or gasoline. No oil to change. No spark plugs. This thing has virtually no maintenance and does a great job mowing. What more could you want?

I've never been so excited for it to snow (yes, I'm a geek). Ego has become my goto electric power tool brand and this 2-stage snowblower doesn't disappoint.

If you're already bought into the EGO power tool platform, you probably have a bunch of their batteries. I'd strongly look into their Portable Power Station. Not only does it keep your up to 4 batteries charged up, but you can use it for emergency power. It's really nice.

I added this attachment to my Multi Head base shortly after I bought it. It's fantastic. If you're never used a battery powered chainsaw, hold on ... it's fantastic. This specific one is great for trimming hard to reach tree branches.

My most recent addition to the Multi Head System and it worked as well as I had hoped. Really handy for prepping dirt for planting.

Incredible value for a battery powered video doorbell. If you don't have existing doorbell wiring, but want a video doorbell, this is the one. 2K video image, human detection to reduce false notifications, and no subscription fee ... hard to beat.

I've got this version for my front door and the brass (no key) version for my back door. They have a ton of options and variations you can get to work with pretty much any smart home setup (zigbee, z-wave, wifi and HomeKit, August, etc.).

I've been a big fan of the smaller Google Nest Hub for the past year (one of my top tech picks for 2018). The bigger 10" version adds some nice new camera features, but even without the camera, the bigger screen really is awesome.

For what it is, it works surprisingly well. Only downside is that it only works with one phone at the moment.

This is the kit I've been using and really love it. You can tie it into systems like Smartthings, Hubitat, and directly into Homekit. Very responsive and offers local control. Be sure to look at the other options too ... they have options that range from just over $100 on up based on what you want and need.

It's a fan, it's a HEPA filter ... it's both! I've been using air filters for decades and this is the best one I've ever used, partially because it also doubles as a fan. It has a built in air quality sensor that will ramp the fan up and down.

My home doesn't have neutral wires on most of the light switches. Lutron Caseta came to the rescue with these switches. Works without the neutral wire, integrates with a lot of smart home platforms, and has had rock solid performance.

I've been using one of these since the middle of 2020 and really like it. It's very similar to installing a smart thermostat for your HVAC, but this is for your water heater (yeah, not sexy, but very cool tech). It uses machine learning to optimize your heating based on your use over time. Very cool.

I bought two of these as my studio monitors for my editing setup (you can see them in my video backgrounds on the desk). The sound is so large it seems like it's coming from speakers twice the size. I have no desire for a sub. And the sound is precise and crystal clear. Love these things.
