I was looking for a lightweight blower for my deck. kzbin.infoUgkxgioZQl3J5wPGAeDINzbieKbT5qomSEx3 There are some huge trees around my house and the leaves and pods drop all over my deck. Having to move furniture around to sweep has become too big a chore. This blower was the answer. It is light enough for this 70yr old lady and powerful enough to blow all the tree droppings off my rather large deck. Thank you B&D. Be aware the cord is not included. I use a 3 prong outdoor cord 25' cord for my 12' x 20' deck. The cord retainer works very well, but don't try to pass the plug through it. That is NOT how it works. You just have to loop the cord and it works great. One of my best purchases. Very happy.

I wish Stihl would bring out a power bank that all our AP batteries could power. I’ve got 2x AP200,4x AP300 & 1x AP500 batteries but have to buy separate power banks and generators. With all the new battery generators and power banks in fashion it makes sense to be able to utilise our AP batteries .

I have the Stihl MSA 300, 161T, 220C and the TRIMMER 135. The machines are great unfortunately the batteries do not match up with machines in particular with MSA 300 and with 135 Trimmer, 10 to 15 minutes in full power with AP500 on a log using about 80% of the blade and I am out of power and on top of that the battery got hot and takes about 20 minutes for the 500 charger to cool off the battery so it can charge back again. Hope Stihl come with some kind of discount so we can buy more batteries or with a better battery.
@Henveymick2 жыл бұрын
Enjoy the reviews. However after investing nearly 2000euro in chargers batteries and engines I don't honestly believe battery equipment can touch the reliability of petrol when in the field going from job to job...yet. Interested to see how the new charging systems help with that. But 3 brand new ap300s batteries last about 45mins of hard strimming and then I'm stuck for the day....unless I do a fuel mix...love the lack of vibration and noise but I don't personally think these systems are a viable business alternative for self employed gardeners at the moment. I wish they were and hope they will be. Love the content though.
@Saxondog2 жыл бұрын
Have to see what the AP500S run time is when it goes on sale. Looking at the stats, blowers and stimmers using cord, slaughter the run time on the 300s. I appreciate guys like you who buy this gear as you are financing the further development of battery power. Hope your business prospers.
@TheFullyChargedGardener2 жыл бұрын
When it comes to covering large areas with Strimmers and blowers a backpack battery is a must. Unless you have access to a power point, where you could charge and cycle batteries through the day. It is amazing how quickly the technology is moving forward 😀 Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment 👍
@positiveaspect57302 жыл бұрын
Yes it's still a stretch financially to get this stuff. I have an EGO commercial trimmer and a backpack battery holder. I've just got a 10ah battery and it makes a big difference in run time. I can go non-stop for over 1 hour on full power. The reality of using it (stop-start, slow-fast etc.) gives way more than an hour of use and more than enough time to do most jobs. I haven't actually emptied the battery yet before I needed to stop.
