Battery Powered Leaf Blower

[monkfish1]

My petrol leaf blower is a bit dead. Whilst i could mess about and probably get it going for a while, thoughts have turned to replacing it.

So, it seems that battery powered ones are now available. Question is, are they any use?

Not the budget end, but something like this http://www.thegreenreaper.co.uk/ego-power-plus-lb4...

Has anyone got any experience of these or similar?

Hmmm, so no one has a battery one. Sounds like im better off with another Petrol one.

Its not a "stately home" but the gardens rather bigger than a domestic one, at least in terms of tree count

Hmmm, i think the conclusion here, is no one has a battery operated one and subjects it to serious use and is happy

Looks like another petrol one for me.

I guess we need to wait another couple of years before they are truly viable.
