Great review. I’m literally looking at the battery vs Gas options myself and you hit all the points I needed!
Thank you, I appreciate it
The husqvarna 525bx has the trigger aligned with the tube as well as av system like the stihl.
The Husqvarna 525bx would be the equivalent to the Stihl 86C if you're in the market for a Husqvarna
I run two Stihl BG50's at the same time and it pushes alot of snow and leaves. Only cost me $360 for both those blowers.
That's great. It beat shoveling and raking
What's the battery life of the echo?
With the 2.5 battery 15 to 20 minutes full throttle
Thanks for the video. I find the sound of the electric blower rather annoying.
Thank you, I appreciate it. The noise of the electric blower is one thing people don't think about when comparing to the gas powered. Electric may be quieter on the decibel meter but definitely sounds louder to the ear.
Echo hands down
Thanks for your comment.
Get an Echo! . Higher CFMs for the Price Point. .Stihl $340 444 CFMs. Echo 2560 $249 456 CFM . Save $91 and get 12 CFMs More! . The Echo 2520 is 453 CFMS for $169!
Thank you for your comment based on the numbers alone, the 2520 looks like the better bargain, but I wouldn't buy that. I would have to get the 2620 version because it has the extended engine life and other features that just make it better. I've been running Echo equipment my whole life and that's what I use for my business. But I have to tell you the Stihl sh86 is the best hand blower on the market The build quality is amazing. Almost vibration free. Just a really nice piece of equipment. But for the price of the stihl you could just buy the Echo 580 and have a backpack blower with way more power than any hand blower.
Run time is a huge consideration. Gas keeps choochin'.
@chazmichaelmichaels88 for normal hand blower activity, blown off the decks, driveway. The battery power is better. For extended use gas powered is better. You just put gas in it. You don't have to spend an extra $150 for an extra battery or Wait for it to charge
@sololawnprofessional I understand, so despite a few minutes of better performance, the electric is useless.
Sure it is fine for an everyday home owner, but why would they spend more?
@chazmichaelmichaels88 they've started the ban on gas blowers in my area So now this is the only option. I just got the new Echo E Force battery powered backpack blower for my lawn business just to be in compliance
