We finally got enough snow to test the new shovels today. Recall we have a cordless electric snow shovel and a snow pusher plow shovel with a 36-inch blade. The battery-powered model is a 48V 16-inch Voltask.
I was a little surprised to learn how powerful the electric shovel is. It comes with two batteries. It has a safety button which you have to press at the same time you pull the trigger. It comes with lights so if you ever want to clear snow after dark, you could do that. Of course, there’s no heavy lifting and it’s easy to push. It can throw snow a long way and you can also direct it left or right. It’s like a vacuum in reverse.
Sena selected the Voltask and save a lot of money. There were other models that were priced in the 400–500-dollar range which didn’t have the features the Voltask has.
The snow plow of course, is a simple tool—just the way I like them. The narrow 36-inch blade makes snow clearing quick and there is also no heavy lifting. Spraying a little snow and ice repellent on the blade cuts down on buildup as you work.
I still prefer a shovel.

Impressive video for both the Voltask and the snow/ice repellant on the Snow Plow. Tempted to get the Voltask – but since I have had the snow blower out only once this season and the blizzard warnings have moved to the Gulf Coast – I need to see which way this climate change breaks first. We are in the middle of a “snow drought” in Minnesota and it might not come back in what is left of my lifetime.

I think the Voltask is a good buy. Sena told me about the snow and ice repellent trick, which was new to me as well.
