Can't find anything as good as this for the price. 500CFM so blows pretty hard!

I did see that actually. It's 4 stroke petrol though so a different beast. Also seems as if only around 300ish CFM? Not enough of a nerd to work it out!
but does it suck tho?
That's cheaper :)
This is a good deal as a powerful, light and 'rechargeable" blower with three years warranty.
I believe this product is no longer in production so you will get your money back three years after this broken down.
However the power is no comparison with petrol blowers vs easy start up with rechargablesI notice that the batteries are half price @ $115, so a good choice.
I'm thinking of getting the battery by itself to complement my Victa 80v purchase during the Bunnings clearance.
I got the 18V Ryobi one for around $80 in the last sale, including the 5.0AH battery…
The Ryobi has a higher air velocity and is much, much lighter… Absolutely perfect for doing the footpaths after mowing…I suppose it depends what you want it for. The Ryobi only does 280Cfm so it would literally get blown away by the Kobalt
The Ryobi is fine for leaves and grass clippings… It's biggest feature is how light it is…
None at Canberra
The wolf needs one of these…
Find the 80V Victa blower from Bunnings as that's going for $50 now. Not much stock left. I got one at $84 and can confirm that you can amend the console grooves for the Kobalt batteries to fit into it and it works perfectly fine (as they are exactly the same batteries, they just have the grooves a few in different spots by a few mm which throws it out, but it's easy enough to cut the groove out).
INSANE price, 3x that of a gasoline one

What's your point? A cheap poorly made petrol one that will require constant maintenance may be a third of the price but a decent petrol one that will be as reliable as this will be a Stihl or similar for around $2-300.
Does the petrol one come with its own fuel refinery?
