There was a great bit of discussion of the Greenworks Elite Batteries in the "Ryobi finally has a Steel Deck 40V push mower …" thread I started on April 24th, but thought I'd start a NEW thread for further discussion. Funny, that thread got hijacked almost immediately and there was actually very little discussion of the threads intended subject !!
Anyway, after Mike posted that the newer Greenworks 40V Max 2.2A chargers can actually charge these new Elite 3Ah & 6Ah batteries I thought I'd order one of the 6Ah ones off ebay as Mike did earlier … new in box for $109 shipped vs. $154.99 + tax on amazon … and give it a try.
It helped also to see some discussion on Amazon's listings for these Elite batteries (including Greenworks tech people) stating that the 2.2A G-Max chargers are compatible with the Elite batteries too.
Got my 6Ah Elite Battery last Friday and charged it up on one of my G-Max chargers without a problem yesterday. Have not had a chance to use it yet, but will do so next weekend.
They mention an "APP" you can put on your phone in the manual, but had no luck finding it to put on my phone. Oh well, kinda gimmicky and not needed anyway.
Any other Greenworks Elite discussion post it here !!
