Talk to me about blowers / Leaf Blowers

[SARG]

We have 5 hand held 2 cycle .... one M18 electric and a BR600 backpack. No tractor is put away without being blown off.
(3 garden ... one ZTR and 2 diesel )

FYI - Just saw that the Stihl BR 800 blowers have a recall on them.

Yes… as of Nov 6th due to possibility of blower fan failure.

No injuries reported at this time.

Depends on what you what to accomplish and how fast. I had a hand held gas blower to blow leaves out around my house so I could mulch.
The handheld blower took forever and was hard to hold after a while.
Bought a Stihl backpack blower and made the job much easier.

Im subject the gas blower ban so electric or nothing…

The Stihl handheld so far so good.
