JLG E450 expert review
Overview
The E450 is an electric articulating boom lift built for both indoor and outdoor use, ideal for tasks needing up-and-over reach around obstacles. It runs on a 48 V battery system (zero emissions) and offers quieter operation compared to combustion booms. It may include a jib (~141° articulation) for added flexibility in tight access areas.
Good reach and articulation (jib + up-and-over clearance) provide flexibility.
Limited payload capacity—heavy loads push reach or safety margins.
Performance & Efficiency
Drive speed is ~7.2 km/h in 4WD. Gradeability ~30 % in 2WD; higher in 4WD models. Up-and-over clearance ~7.7 m. The jib adds articulation in vertical movement (~+86/–55°). These help with positioning over obstacles with precise control.
In Comparison
Compared to combustion booms, the E450 trades off noise/emissions for battery limits. Against smaller booms, you get extra reach and flexibility. Versus larger machines, you lose on payload and brute lift capacity.
Verdict
For sites that require quiet, clean overhead work and obstacle navigation, the JLG E450 is a practical choice. It won’t handle heavy lifting, but when reach and accessibility matter, it performs well. Take care with battery strategy and always stay inside its capacity envelope.
