![]() ![]() After eight years of testing, our pick is the Toro PowerJet F700, which combines gale-force air movement with a smartly designed handle, an essential feature with such a strong and unruly blower. This model replaces our previous pick, the Ego LB5804 Power+ 580 CFM Blower, an earlier version of Ego’s leaf blower.Ĭorded blowers meet most people’s needs because they’re powerful, lightweight, relatively quiet, free of emissions, and low maintenance. For the money, however, you’re getting the absolute best combination of power, portability, and ease of use, and it’s an especially smart investment if you plan to expand your collection of Ego’s great system of lawn tools, including lawn mowers, string trimmers, and snow blowers. At around 10 pounds, it nearly doubles the Toro’s or Worx’s heft, and at a typical price of just under $300, the Ego is among the most expensive cordless handhelds we looked at. The Ego LB5604 doesn’t have the raw leaf-blasting power of the corded models, but in our tests its more focused airstream was better at getting under a dense mat of wet leaves, and its turbo button can produce an extra burst of power (but drains the battery faster). Its roughly 27 minutes of run time (on high) is second only to the 30 minutes you’ll get out of the less powerful Ego LB5804. Plus, this charger can be wall mounted for space saving storage.If you have to blow beyond the reach of a 50- or 100-foot extension cord, get the cordless battery-powered Ego LB6504 Power+ 650 CFM Blower. A built in cable tie with Velcro strap on the back means you can wind the cable to the charger to reduce its length. Then, the charger switches over to charging at a constant voltage before the current reduces itself automatically until charging is complete. Two-stage charging means the battery is first charged at a constant current up to a predetermined voltage limit. The AL 301 automatically switches off when the battery is fully charged to prevent overcharging too. This charger has a 6.5 A charging current for fast recharge times and a built-in fan for active battery cooling.

The battery has an integrated LED charge indicator, clearly displaying as and when the battery needs charging too.Ĭompatible with the AL 101, AL 301, AL 301-4 and AL 500 charger unit. This allows you to see the charge status via the STIHL connected App and monitor its daily usage. The AP 500 S has an integrated Bluetooth® interface for STIHL connected, so just like our AR L backpack batteries, it can be linked to the STIHL connected system 5 and managed like a power tool. ![]() ![]() With approximately 253 charging cycles per year (253 working days, excluding weekends and bank holidays in UK) the battery will last close to 10 years without the typical capacity loss of the battery cells. Featuring power laminate technology which means it has double the number of charging cycles of a typical STIHL AP system battery with cylindrical cells. The AP 500 S is the most powerful AP battery from STIHL. High capacity 36 V, 8.8 Ah Lithium-Ion battery. ![]()
