    got the electric one for $20, would it be worth returning that and getting this?

    • bleemo on 04/05/2022 - 14:44

      Check this for yourself but I think Bunnings has a recall going for the electric version!

    • mmd on 04/05/2022 - 14:48

      Which model do you own? It could part of the recall and U could get a cordless blower n battery as a replacement

      • MS Paint on 04/05/2022 - 14:59

        I recall reading people buying these recalled units off gumtree and FBM and then swinging by Bunnings for a replacement with the cordless. Gold.

          Yes I've done this about 5 or 6 times 🙂
          I posted this "hack" in the ozito blower skin deal recently and it made the news!
          The longest part is s not buying it off FB or gumtree, but it's the Bunnings attendant not knowing how to put through the transaction (not their fault, it's just rare)

              https://www.bunnings.com.au/help-support/product-recalls

              Method.
              1. Buy the blower ensuring you have the correct model and batch number
              2. Take into Bunnings
              3. Walk out with brand new cordless blower and battery. In some occasions the store attendant may offer you $49 cash. Refuse this and show them the flyer (pdf file in the link above) which entitles you to one cordless blower kit

              Extra info
              I have paid no more than 30 and the cheapest was 10!
              I have not seen a Bunnings team member check the batch number nor if it even works (I assume they just dispose it)
              The 2ah battery contains 18650s which are soldered but can be detached

              • ColtNoir on 05/05/2022 - 09:54

                @mmd: I’m late to the party and can’t find any!

                I can only find some that don’t have the WA at the end of the model.

                • mmd on 05/05/2022 - 09:58

                  @ColtNoir: Yep that's not the recalled model.
                  It does pop up from time to time. Just keep an eye on gumtree/FB

              • Young gardener on 05/05/2022 - 16:34

                @mmd: @mmd Do they check the exact model number? I have a 2400 W ozito blower. Worth giving a try?

                • mmd on 05/05/2022 - 16:56

                  @Young gardener: From memory I've had the model number checked a couple of times

                  • Royale with cheese on 14/05/2022 - 17:01

                    @mmd: I have found one with same model but different batch not listed in the recall. I could give it a go I suppose and if they don't accept, try a different bunnings. Do you think that can work? Worth a shot at $20

                    • mapax on 14/05/2022 - 17:12

                      @Royale with cheese: I would say it’s a pretty big dice roll especially after the “journalist” wrote an article about it

                        @mapax: Last time I went to bunnings they didn't check it but yes if they did, I am screwed. However it really probably comes down to the kids at the counter and how thorough they are

    • cyssero on 04/05/2022 - 15:23

      I have the 3-1 as well as the one in this deal, the one here is much lighter and easier to maneuver as it's less bulky.

      Power naturally better on the electric but for what I needed the battery is fine. If you aren't using the vac at all and just want to blow leaves / clippings around, I would go for the battery model. I am using a 4ah battery with it which helps.

      I did get it for $99 with a trimmer which I think is probably better value. Would only get for $65 if it was urgently needed.

  • Hinee on 04/05/2022 - 14:43

    Finally an Ozito tool I already own and can comment on. I haven't really tried other brands, but I really love my blower. Battery lasts as long as I've ever needed it and plenty of grunt for what it needs.

    • bleemo on 04/05/2022 - 14:46

      Agree on this! Blows leaves and grass clippings fine. Good for small yards or if you want to blow leaves/dirt out of the garage

        What about drying out car after wash?

        • bleemo on 04/05/2022 - 15:08

          Actually yes I do that too, but only for getting water out of wheels, door handles and other small gaps. Not for drying the whole car.

        I tried it yesterday. It's useless in that regard too. I might 3D print a narrower end tip and see if that helps.

        • downunderblue on 04/05/2022 - 20:54
          +1

          Does anyone know what device is more powerful? Says it blows up to 210km/h but if you all say it cant blow the water off, then what can?

          Incidently I used a car wash place the other day and they had an air pressure gun at the vacuum section. it was really effective in getting sand and crap from the carpet. I liked it so much I wondered if something like this could do a similar job? That one blows at 33000RPM blowing force: 0.98OZ~1.16 OZ (FWIW???).

          On a general theme, is there anything you could use to do both jobs- possible something with an interchangable nose which could either focus the air or distribute a 'broaded blow' (so to speak)?

          Thoughts?

      • ChatCPT on 04/05/2022 - 16:12

        You want a car specific blower that filters the air, otherwise you’ll just scratch up the car.
        Or just stick to a micro fibre drying towel.

    • MS Paint on 04/05/2022 - 14:52

      I purchased the skin with the special a few weeks back purely for dusting out the shed. It does that fine.

      I tried it on wet grass clippings on concrete and it's pretty useless in that regard. My 2T Stihl has not been retired that's for sure.

        • et tu brute on 07/05/2022 - 18:43

          …. You need to check shelf price carefully. I nearly made the same mistake…. I then scanned the shelves looking for the yellow $64.50 shelf ticket and found them about 2 metres away from the $77.50 units. Bunnings shelf merchandising leaves a lot to be desired. I have cataracts in both eyes (2+ years waiting for the op in these COVID times) and waste so much time scanning shelf prices these days. I purchased one (kit, not skin-only) today and would suggest go back and check again if you still want one. Our local Bunnings was very crowded today, no doubt with Mothers' Day present shoppers ;)

      Sadly, that bundle is not available everywhere. I called 5 bunnings around my home and they have no stock on them, and it's not listed on their website. Apparently it might be discontinued? maybe will release a newer bundle?

  • Ori0n on 04/05/2022 - 15:07

    I have this kit and use it to regularly push leaves, nuts and twigs off my courtyard. It does the job fine although starts to struggle a bit when the battery is low. Will probably try a larger capacity battery when on special. Get about 25-30 minutes from the 2.0 battery.

    • bleemo on 04/05/2022 - 15:10
      +3

      The blower with a 4Ah battery does give it more oomph. You can feel it and hear the difference. My guess is the extra cells allow the larger batteries to pump out more amps than the smaller packs.

      • Ori0n on 04/05/2022 - 15:21

        Yeah, so hard to justify another $76 battery on top of a $99 kit.

        • JIMB0 on 04/05/2022 - 15:43

        It'll be the extra cells in parallel that will make the difference

      • billdsl on 04/05/2022 - 15:58

        yeah i agree with this, a bigger battery on these does feel like it kicks along harder up front, the small battery is fine though to get you started if you dont have a huge area to deal with

      • MS Paint on 04/05/2022 - 16:37

        Anecdotally this may be the case but technically more amps will give you more run time. As both batteries are 18v the power should be much the same.

        • gesco on 04/05/2022 - 17:23
          +1

          More amp-hours will give more run time.

          The smaller batteries will have one string of 5 cells wired in series. The larger batteries will have more than one of these strings wired in parallel.

          Each string has a max current capability (this looks like internal resistance), so parallel strings have an increased current ability.

    Can confirm this is great for gutters. The narrow head allows you to get in there and flick anything out that is stuck to the gutter. Went through 1x4.0amp battery and 1x2.0amp battery for a fairly large 4x2 property with extra patios etc. I use this thing 24/7 and have dropped it, had if fall down onto bricks and still have killed it or cracked any plastic. It’s tough!

    Picked mine up and had a play with it this morning. I had an old 2.5ah battery from a drill charged and ready to go.

    Not the most powerful blower around but it's great for leaves and small twigs etc. It's lightweight (didn't need to swap hands while using it) and not too noisy.

    Used it for almost 10 minutes and didn't seem to lose any power.

    At this price IMO you can't go wrong.
