Knowledge

BLDC (Brushless DC) motors:

  • ✅ Longer lifespan (1,000+ hours)
  • ✅ Quieter operation (typically 68–72 dB)
  • ✅ More energy efficient (longer battery life)
  • ✅ Lighter weight and size
  • ❌ Higher initial cost

Universal motors (brushed):

  • ✅ Lower upfront cost
  • ❌ Shorter lifespan (200–500 hours)
  • ❌ Louder (75–82+ dB)
  • ❌ Less efficient
  • ❌ Heavier

Our recommendation: Most of our cordless platforms use BLDC motors for premium performance. Universal motors are available for entry-level corded models.
