JLG E400 expert review
Overview
The E400 is built for electric boom lift use in constrained or emission-sensitive environments. It runs on a 48 V battery system with zero emissions and quiet operation. It features boom articulation, a jib option, and full 360° swing (non-continuous). Its drive and gradeability are suitable for jobsite movement but not extreme terrain.
Exceptional articulation and up-and-over reach with boom + jib.
Battery regime and charging infrastructure add operational constraints.
Performance & Efficiency
Drive speed is ~7.2 km/h in many units. Gradeability ~30 %. The jib offers ~144° articulation, and up-and-over clearance is ~6.55 m. Battery pack is typically 8 × 6 V, 370 Ah deep cycle units.
In Comparison
Against combustion booms, E400 trades off fuel autonomy for clean, quiet operation. Versus smaller booms, it gives more reach and articulation. Versus larger booms, you lose lifting capacity and some height but gain maneuverability in tighter zones.
Verdict
When your jobsite demands precision, low emissions, and flexible reach, the JLG E400 is a smart choice. It’s not built for heavyweight lifting, but in access-critical, sensitive or indoor environments it can excel. Just plan battery usage carefully and abide by load limits.
