The new Ego 56V battery is packing a whopping 10.0 amp hours of runtime capacity which is a good bump up from their previous 7.5 ah battery. Some of you may be thinking what’s the big deal about this new 10 amp hour battery since brands like Bosch, Dewalt and Milwaukee already have 12.0’s on the market? Well let me tell you about a little thing called Watt Hours, the formula for figuring out watt hours is you multiply the battery voltage by it’s amp hours and you get watt hours. This is the universal method to compare batteries of different voltages and sizes. So the above mentioned 12.0 ah batteries, which are all 18V batteries, are all 216 watt hours while Ego’s 10.0 ah battery is a massive 560 watt hours of capacity! That’s easily more than double the runtime capacity.
The new Ego 10.0 ah 56V battery appears to be taller than the current 7.5 ah battery which means one of two things, it’s either packing larger cells or it’s packing an extra row of cells. Whatever the case, bravo to Ego for making such a massive capacity battery that will help run their outdoor power tools for longer than before.
Of course such a massive capacity battery won’t be cheap as it’s priced at a wallet hurting $449 which is about the price of a battery powered lawn mower nowadays but you’re only getting a battery. Expect the new Ego 10.0 ah battery to be available sometime in the near future.
And just like Ego’s latest battery updates, this new battery gets the new circular fuel gauge that was included in their latest batteries. Of course a larger capacity battery will take longer to charge and it will take 90 minutes to charge with their rapid charger and 3 hours to charge with their standard slow charger.

Are these available yet? Do you think with the larger size that they will still fit with the power station?
You can check HD for availability. I don’t see why they shouldn’t fit the power station.
That’s the thing though, I have not been able to find any trace of a 10ah EGO battery anywhere else on the internet except for this website, so I was curious if you had some insider knowledge.
