18v Makita Blower Comparison

[@ScoutCrafter]

The new battery blowers are really great! Lots of CFM and still quiet... I really like them. Great video Joe!

I've got one very similar to the smaller one. I'm happy with it because we don't have a lawn over here, I just use it to blow the leaves out of the sidewalk, but I would not object if someone were to give me the larger one for Christmas!! Thanks for sharing Joe, take care!!

Great demo Joe. I do know that the big fella drinks the battery fast when compared to the smaller. One is right for one task and the other for another.

[@ccsinstalacoeseletricas8191]

Right on the spot! Do you plan to make a comparison between the big 18v to the 36v one?

[@joeheilm]

No, the big 18 does everything I need. Thanks for watching. Cheers

[@Zaulan]

Awesome video, exactly what I was looking for.

[@TheKnacklersWorkshop]

Hello Joe, There is quite a difference... I hope you have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Take care. Paul,,

Looking at the larger 18v as medium duty, light weight and portable, I have plug-in blowers but in some areas the cords are a real pain to deal with

One of my favorite bands. I like both of them. Thanks 😊🙏

[@smellynerfs]

Thanks for the review Joe, it's helpful seeing both models being compared at the same time. Do you think that the smaller model would be suitable for blowing grass clippings off the footpath etc, or would the larger model handle that kinda work better?

[@joeheilm]

I use the small one to blow off tools in the shop. The larger one does a much better job on anything outside. Cheers

[@Skirk84]

Much better but not the powerhouse i was expecting. I have the smaller one for work in my truck but when i want to blow out the garage it takes a while.

[@RestorationAustralia]

Great blowers, I only have the small one.

[@ShowemRight]

Sir, whats the name (model #) of the more powerful Makita blower?..I also have the Makita 18 volt system.

That blower does well for the size battery it has.

[@Pyyhekumi]

and you didn't even have the extension tube on it

[@sugarplumfairy101]

Is it true you only get 12 minutes runtime with a 5 Ah battery?

[@joeheilm]

Hi Dave. 12 minutes sounds about right. 12 minutes sounds bad, but this is such a handy tool for small to medium jobs. Cheers

[@sugarplumfairy101]

@@joeheilm Thanks for the reply Joe. In fall, I would easily be collecting leaves for an hour, so on that basis, this wouldn't be suited to that... thanks again

[@Artur-sw8er]

Even the bigger one sucks

[@joeheilm]

@Artur-sw8er yea, if you have a big job or are a professional gas is the way to go. But, for homegamers blowing off the patio these electric blowers are convenient. Cheers

Great.
