Cordless leaf blower

Looking for a lightweight cordless leaf blower for the TT.

Any suggestions or watch outs?

Thanks!

Got a Ryobi at Home Depot, on sale, I think 18v?? It won't blow it's own nose. Oh, I guess it would be ok to blow the pine needles off top of slide.

But a good one with power is big and heavy. So, I dunno.

I've thought of these.........but wish I could try one first.

I use the milwaukee blower since all my other cordless stuff is milwaukee. Works great and not very big. Dewalt has one just like it too. Click image for larger version

We use the Milwaukee compact cordless to clear off the slide toppers, site pad after they mow and all the outdoor rugs. Works great.

I have a 20 volt Black & Decker, used it when I drove a school bus to clean the trash out from under the seats. Blows out the garage well and also the driveway.

X2 on the Black n Decker. Small, lightweight. Daughter bought it for me as a gift after I had shoulder surgery. She did not want me to use my big heavy gas Stihl blower. Not as powerful by a long shot, but I love it for the camper and lighter duty stuff! Goes on sale often, 79.00

I have a green works 40V pole saw so I purchased their leaf blower as it was small and light weight. Works well for leaves and acorns.

I bought one from Harbor Freight that is a small hand held. Use it on the slide out topper also.

But.....
Reason for posting is another use for it. I have one of those portable water softeners which is pretty heavy with the water in it, sits in my cargo basket. Time to close up camp I direct it on the inlet and it clears out the water without having to tip the softener. Of course it works on the hoses too.

Does not too well on the dual filter assembly I have though, still have to tip those.

I have this one and really like it. Lots of power, the battery lasts a long time and charges quickly.

I use the Ryobi 18 volt model. It works just fine for blowing off patio, slide toppers etc as well as blowing birdseed ff the porch at home that the damn doves flutter out of the feeders.

I use one of these. Costco had a special last summer; blower, 2 batteries and charger for $300. I use the crap out of it and love it. It will move golf ball size rocks!

I use a dewalt cordless blower. Only because I use a dewalt driver to open/close out landing gear. One battery one charger.

Mainly just because I wanted to expand on my other use for a leaf blower. I think people missed that.
I figured everyone already has their favorite blower.

I won't expand in another old thread on one of my other uses for a hand drill.

and I'm going to add to his add to an old thread

Ryobi gets my vote because the same battery can power a lot of other tools

I got the 30V power head,
which has a lot of garden attachments edger, whacker, pole saw pruning shears ..... etc etc

then just the battery can also be used in a lot of different tools too.
