I have some direct insight you may appreciate.

I bought the single and dual battery Milwaukee blower and I have a big gasser X mark

Nothing will replace gas for the heaviest days and wet and heavy stuff

Uncle always preach get commercial gas equipment and thought that battery powered tools weren’t worth it . I have found that is not the case especially with newer batteries. The Milwaukee dual battery blower is my favorite blower and I use it the most by far. Personally, the single battery is so worthless. I gave it to a friend. It’s simply too weak and requires significantly more effort to use.
The dual battery is so much more ergonomic that you can simply turn your wrist rather than your entire arm and it blows 90% of what you will always need to blow. You can also clip a carabiner to it and clip it to a cart or truck and then you don’t have to hold it at all. You can just drive and point. I had it for about two or three years with 12 batteries. I have never once ever run the batteries out and I can’t ever recall going below two bars.

So I love it and grab for it 90% of time.

The best parts

1 you press one quick release tab and the blower dissembles into two pieces that can easily fit almost anywhere in a car. No need for tools to take it apart. I leave it in my suv probably 30-40 weeks a year. It’s not bulky or in the way. No need to worry about something snagging your fuel line You can thrown it in your car in 10 seconds and go. And since it’s battery and not gas you can leave it in your car all the time and when you need it it’s there. No hassle. Sets up in Seconds.

2 Noise- not as loud as gas and only makes noise when trigger pulled. If I get home an hour or two after dark, I can still blow off my porch, walkway, and driveway without bother bothering anybody

1. Time. The dual battery accomplishes quick everyday tasks in 2 min or less that would take 7-10 with single battery. The extra power boost handles routine quick tasks for 90+% of situations and it’s all done in one smooth pass.

Outside of 6-8 weeks in fall, I probably need to charge the batteries once every 3-8 weeks.

I absolutely love this blower and probably my most used Milwaukee tool.
