OPINION — The recent article on electric leaf blowers begins with the fact that gas-powered blowers have been a big quality of life question recently, and the next eight paragraphs, detail that person’s opinions; no “facts” were checked.
Most of the backpack gas and electric blowers vary less than 10% by weight, but the gas models (when full) are slightly heavier; all are around 19-23 lbs.
The batteries, that cost cents to recharge, last 1-2 hours, so two batteries provide 2-4 hours of performance.
