Overview

This kit is the more approachable of EGO’s two-stage cordless machines because the batteries are included. A 24-inch path and 20-inch intake handle most suburban driveways, and the handle-mounted dashboard controls drive speed and direction.

About this category — Battery power means push-button starts, no fuel or oil and much less noise than gas. A two-stage design uses a serrated auger to break up snow and a separate impeller to throw it, so it handles deeper and heavier snow than a single-stage machine. Runtime depends on battery capacity and snow depth, so check which batteries come in the box before you compare.

What we like

  • Batteries included, so the kit is ready to use
  • Self-propelled with forward and reverse
  • Four LEDs help with early-morning and evening clearing

Drawbacks to consider

  • Narrower than the 28-inch SNT2800
  • Two 7.5Ah packs limit runtime on very large areas
  • Cordless runtime drops in heavy, wet snow

What the manufacturer documents add

Source: EGO SNT2400 owner’s manual (the SNT2405 is the kit with batteries) and Amazon listing

EGO’s manual for this platform lists a 24-inch width, 20-inch intake, up to 50 feet of throw and 143.3 pounds without batteries, riding on 15-inch wheels. Variable-speed self-propel works forward and in reverse, though the manual notes that reverse speed is fixed.

The most useful guidance concerns batteries. EGO says not to run it on a single battery when snow is deeper than 8 inches or very wet or icy, because the battery’s temperature protection can shut it down, and it recommends two batteries at once. The included pair of 7.5Ah packs therefore matches how it is meant to be used.

Like the SNT2800, it has overload sensing that slows and then stops the auger, shear pins to protect the gearbox, and a recommended operating range of -4°F to 50°F. Run it for a few minutes after clearing so it does not freeze up.

Ownership and upkeep

Ownership is simple: charge the packs after use, store them indoors above freezing, and wipe snow and salt off the housing and auger. Keep a spare battery in mind if you clear a large area, because runtime falls as snow gets deeper and wetter. Check that any battery you already own is compatible before counting it toward the cost.

Bottom line

Batteries included, so the kit is ready to use. The main trade-off to weigh: narrower than the 28-inch SNT2800.

Who it suits

Homeowners with one-to-three-car driveways who want a two-stage cordless machine ready out of the box.

Frequently asked questions

How big a driveway can it clear?

EGO states up to an 18-car driveway with 8 inches of snow on one charge with the two included batteries.

Does it need a pull cord?

No. It starts with a push button, with no priming or pull cord.
