Definitely considering this blower for my place at the start of next spring, my gas blower is super heavy and old. That’s why I’m considering this lightweight but powerful v20 blower then
it might move 350 cfm but the tube is to wide to deliver enough power. i have a 20 old corded leaf blower that when it was new blew about 250 cfm but it has a narrower nozzle and about twice the force of my craftsman.
I had a gas one for years but got tired of gas, spark plug changeouts and just getting the darn thing to start. Pulling that cord is not for the faint at heart. Thought I'd try a battery operated one knowing that it would not have the power of the gas one (is a lot quieter however) as I was only going to use it to blow a small courtyard and a deck. It works just fine but was disappointed to only get about a seven minute run off the full charge. I'll look at the adapter set-up but I am actually thinking I'll be returning it. I do have 90n days so maybe I'll tolerate it a few weeks and then try something else.
Thanks for watching. Good luck with the setup you choose. I do think these should come with a larger battery. They use the smallest battery just to get the price down.
For future buyers, the 4Ah or 6Ah batteries are HIGHLY recommended for these tools, for drills n such the 2Ah is ok, but for these higher powered tools the bigger the battery the better.
Just bought the combo that includes this and the weed eater. Was $149. Seemed like a decent deal. I have a 40v sunjoe and to be honest, side by side comparisons are pretty similar. They both seemed to blow rocks, leaves and dirt. Didn't really need a new one, but I am trying to keep everything the same color scheme with my business. Happy with the purchase. Also buying a 6ah battery tomorrow. I do have 4ah batteries, but I feel like this will use a lot of time. Thanks for the video
Thank you for watching. I am still happy with this purchase. It's still going strong and kids are familiar with it's use and know how to recharge the battery now!
I have one of these as it sucks more than it does blowing. Only good enough for light duty work. Definitely not going to round up leaves in the yard with it.
Sorry about that. Try this one: www.amazon.com/LQ-18RY-Craftsman-Cordless-Platform-Batteries-Adapter/dp/B09FFL4X2C/ref=sr_1_2_sspa?keywords=craftsman+battery+to+dewalt+battery+adapter&qid=1667351795&qu=eyJxc2MiOiIwLjAwIiwicXNhIjoiMC4wMCIsInFzcCI6IjAuMDAifQ%3D%3D&sr=8-2-spons&psc=1
@@ProjectNineOaks great video,I didn't know nothing about adapter for craftsman/Dewalt battery,ill get one of this cuz I have some Dewalt and craftsman tools and single battery is really expensive(not like a combo)
Just got one yesterday and I am about to work myself to death! And using 3 batteries!! Just dont stay charged long enough for what I need.going to buy something stronger
Yeah, this really are for smaller jobs. Mine came with a 2 amp hour battery which is small. You can look for a 6 amp hour battery and that could theoretically last 3 times longer.
I understand. These aren't made for large properties that's for sure. If you just need another 5 to 10 minutes, you can consider getting a larger capacity battery. I believe they come with a 2.5 amp hour battery. Try a 4 or 5 aH battery for longer run time.
Piece of crap, first time use got 10 minutes. Taking it back. My mom bought it for herself and is 😡, I hate battery powered stuff, and craftsman for that matter.

Totally agree!

I agree. Works great to my kids to blow off the leaves from the porch and carport area. Trains them to plug in the battery when done too!

@@patriotsoldier6977 It's not junk as you're not going to be blowing around wet leaves with it.
Do your know if Milwaukee has an adaptor?
I didn't find the link in comments for the adapter .

@@DavidHernandez-ue4fz Thank you! Glad this video could help you out!
six minutes of run time that just told me to look for something different!
Good luck in your search.
Needs a 4 amp hour battery as you have six and nine available to you also.
@@jamesm568 Cheap tool ...very pricey batteries.
@@jgz6989 That is true! I usually get my batteries from eBay and don't ask questions where they come from.
@@jamesm568 don’t charge them in your house.
Thatta man! Teach em early so you can rest 😂😂
It's just a plus if a "teachable moment" also helps me relax!
I just bought one not enough power for me. Much more work.
Is that 200 or 350cfm?
This is the 340 cfm blower. Still working great for our purposes. Thank you for watching.

Yeh I need to get one.. I want to use for drying my cars :) Im getting old :) Thx
That's what I use mine for. So much faster than towels
Instead of vacuuming my car I blow everything out of it
I only get perhaps 10-15 minutes before the battery dies. Even with charging for 24hours. I'm getting a gas blower.

I thought I was the only one. Charged for 2 days. Died in 10 mins? Brand new
@@kevinelmore3424 Yeah, the battery it comes with is small and a larger 5aH battery would be a better fit.
You need a larger battery... The small 2ah battery is a tease cause they know folks will buy bigger batteries or just be pissed lol
@@kevinelmore3424 same today 1st time using it and I am sure I can do faster with a rake! Here goes the sore back for a week lol
I get 30 minutes on my battery and that's running on high with the original battery
That's awesome! Maybe there is some quality control issues with the batteries. I have the 2aH battery.
