Hey guys, sorry it has been so long since I checked in. I am leaning towards buying the new Milwaukee Fuel leaf blower bare tool, but I would like to know the run time on the 5.0 and 4.0 batteries. I have a few xc, 4.0 and 5.0 batteries, but if I only get a few minutes of run time I may hold off for a sale on the 9.0 kit or fix my gas blower for now. I usually blow out my garage, patio and driveway for a total of 30 min or so run time.
Has anyone used the blower with the smaller batteries?
Workshop addict did a video on this machine, I think they mentioned power and runtime on a 5.0, I can’t quite remember but I’d check it out if I were you.
I heard the cfm was average for an 18v unit. Runtime was probably decent. If one 5.0 isn’t enough to last 30 minutes a second one may be able to finish. I don’t remember the runtimes.
