Gas - Leaf Blowers - The Home Depot

Question 1

How long does the battery last on an electric leaf blower?

Accepted Answer

Battery life varies depending on the model and power setting used, but typically, you can expect anywhere from 15 to 45 minutes of continuous use. The battery might only be sufficient for larger yards to clear half of the yard before needing a recharge. To ensure uninterrupted blowing, consider purchasing an extra battery.

Question 2

I'm just dealing with leaves on my small patio and driveway. Do I really need a super high air speed on my leaf blower?

Accepted Answer

A leaf blower with a lower maximum airspeed (under 150 MPH) is typically sufficient for smaller areas and light debris like dry leaves. These models are often lighter and more affordable, providing the necessary power without being overkill for basic cleanup tasks around your home.

Question 3

I have a medium-sized yard with some stubborn leaves. What weight range should I consider for a balance of power and manageability?

Accepted Answer

A 5-10 lbs. leaf blower usually provides a good mix of power for moving heavier debris and manageability for extended use. You'll likely find various handheld and backpack-style options within this weight category.

Question 4

I have a small yard with light debris. Do I need a leaf blower with a very high max air volume?

Accepted Answer

Not necessarily; a leaf blower with a lower max air volume, such as those in the Less than 50 CFM or 50 - 100 CFM range, may be perfect for your needs and budget. These are generally lighter and easier for smaller tasks like sweeping patios or clearing light leaves from a deck.
