EGO Power+ LB6504
Higher ratedRanked #1 in Best Cordless Leaf Blowers
EGO Power+ LB6504
$279.99as of Jun 7

The EGO Power+ LB6504 is the all-around pick for homeowners who want gas-rivaling clearing power without the maintenance. It pushes up to 650 CFM and 180 MPH in turbo, and independent force testing measured north of 20 N, putting it among the strongest cordless handhelds in its class. The trade-off is weight and turbo runtime, but for most yards the standard mode and 56V battery ecosystem make it the safe default.

Strengths
  • — 650 CFM peak airflow in turbo mode clears wet, matted leaves most handhelds leave behind
  • — Tested blowing force scales from 11.4 N on high to 20.3 N in turbo with the 5.0Ah pack
  • — Variable-speed trigger plus a turbo button gives fine control for tight beds and open driveways
Watch-outs
  • — At roughly 10 to 13 pounds with the battery it is heavy for extended handheld use
  • — Turbo mode burns the 5.0Ah battery in about 16 minutes
  • — Measures 88 dB(A) at the ear in turbo, louder than the quietest competitors
