Three cordless two-stage snow blowers cover most driveways with a 24 in. clearing width: the Toro Power Max e24, the EGO POWER+ SNT2405 and the RYOBI 40V HP Brushless 24 in. kit. According to each maker’s own page, the real differences are throw distance, battery count, runtime claims and warranty length, not the width of the cut.
How do the specs compare?
All figures below come from the maker pages for each model. Torque Digest has not tested any of them.
| Toro e24 (39924) | EGO SNT2405 | RYOBI 24 in. kit | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Clearing width | 24 in. | 24 inches | 24 inches |
| Intake height | 20 in. | 20 inches | not listed |
| Throw distance | up to 45 ft | up to 50 feet | up to 55 feet |
| Batteries | two 60V Max, 6.0Ah | two 56V, 7.5Ah | four 40V, 6Ah |
| Tool warranty | 3-Year Limited | 5-year limited | 5-year |
| Battery warranty | 3-Year | 3-year limited | 3-year |
Toro lists the e24 at 172 lbs. EGO and RYOBI do not publish a weight on the pages Torque Digest read.
How long will one charge last?
The makers use different yardsticks, so the numbers cannot be lined up directly. Toro claims up to 70 minutes. RYOBI claims up to 45 minutes and up to 31 car spaces. EGO does not give minutes: it says the SNT2405 “clears up to an 18-car driveway with 8 inches of snow on a single charge” with its two recommended 7.5Ah batteries.
Toro’s own page is not fully consistent either. The spec sheet says 24 in. and up to 20 Car Driveway, while other text on the page mentions a 26 in. width and up to 24 car spaces. Treat the spec sheet as the safer reference and check the dealer listing.
Which battery system does each one use?
The Toro runs on 60V Max L324 packs, rated 6.0Ah and 324Wh, and two come in the box. The EGO uses two 56V ARC Lithium packs, and EGO says Peak Power combines the output of any two of its 56V batteries. The RYOBI is the only one of the three that needs four packs: its page lists four 40V 6Ah batteries (OP40605) and four active battery ports.
If you already own batteries from one platform, that is the quickest way to narrow the list.
How much does it cost in Canada?
None of the three maker pages shows a Canadian price. Canadian retailer Atlantic Outdoor lists the EGO SNT2405 at $1,799.00 CAD, against a regular price of $1,999.00, and showed it as backordered when checked on October 30. EGO’s own page marks the SNT2405 as coming soon. Prices and stock change quickly in snow season, so confirm with a Canadian retailer before you plan around any of these.
Who it suits
- Homeowner with a long driveway: the RYOBI’s 55 feet throw distance and 31 car spaces claim are the biggest on paper, but check you are happy to charge and store four packs.
- Someone already on EGO or Toro batteries: the EGO and Toro machines reuse packs you may already own. Check the pack voltage first.
- Buyer who values warranty: EGO and RYOBI list 5 years on the tool, Toro lists 3 years.
- First time buyer on a budget: only the EGO has a Canadian retail price in the sources, so compare it against local quotes for the other two.
- Crew or property manager: the Toro’s 6 forward and 2 reverse speeds are the only numeric speed figures listed, and its 172 lbs weight is the only one published.
What should you check next?
Open the Toro Canada, RYOBI Canada and EGO pages linked below, then check stock with a Canadian dealer before the first storm. Ask each dealer which kit includes the batteries and charger, since the models above are sold in several bundles.
