Ego Power+ Blower 765 Cfm (Bare Tool)

Excellent product , A little heavy because of its turbo power motor, however,It does have a good strap if you find it a bit heavy especially when trying to go under branches Battery very good and lasts for at least an hour in regular mode. It charges fully one hour when completely drained.Turbo blast really effective No problem gathering leaves it comes with a wide angle adapter if you.want to widen the coverage.

Purchased a few weeks ago to replace a different brand that was only 5 years old but 4 battery's have failed. Previous blower would struggle to blow all the pine needles and pine nuts out of driveway and take 2 batteries over about 45min, this new EGO blower takes about 20min for the same amount of work because air volume is so strong, even using the power boost I still have over half the 5amp battery left and 1/4 of the 2.5amp. Only time will tell if the batteries will last but the blower itself is top notch and worth the extra $$. Also very quiet and easy to handle even with the heavy battery, the balance with the battery on while blowing makes it seem lighter than it actually is.

EGO provided an option to share a battery with my mower, and this super blower. I have to grow accustomed to this powerful tool, that made short work of magnolia leaves and lawn clippings. Cleanup of all debris, adjust airflow with a flip of a switch - literally. I so deserved this upgrade. I use earplugs as it is a bit noisy. I'm 5' so the enclosed strap helps with the balance of the tool. Hope it lasts a long time.

Purchased this as an alternative to my past gas powered blowers. This blower provides great airflow and ease of use. Noise levels are lower than gas powered blowers. The battery is quick to charge and lasts a sufficient amount of time to complete normal tasks.

Switched from a Stihl BG-50 gas blower to this Power+765 and the difference is amazing. Running at 60% equals the gas blower and turbo is there to move piles of leaves mixed with twigs that the old one could not. No starting, no mixing gas - just push a button and go!

Recently bought a 765 CFM Blower because I needed an extra battery for my EGO mower and this has a 5Ah battery. I do use blowers and wanted a high end blower but didn't want to go with a higher CFM model because they seem to drain batteries quicker. As with my mower, I don't baby my equipment and put it to the test and use them at a high level. I picked a spot in the back of my garage where pine needles and leaves have built up over the years and found that the blower could lift and blow matted down wet leaves and needles right off the ground! Mind you, that was on Turbo Mode but once they were loose just using high speed was enough to keep them going and I was able to blow them right back into the woods. On the other end of the spectrum at low speed, the variable speed of the blower allows me to blow leaves and debris off the pea gravel around the bottom of the outside of our pool where we have a decorative border of gravel and rocks without blowing the pea gravel away. Runtime seems to be sufficient for what I need and I now have 2 batteries as I have 2 tools so I should be good for when it comes to things like fall leaf blowing. I like the strap that comes with the blower except that the strap holder on the pad should go right to each end of the pad so it isn't so awkward to place on your shoulder. The bottom "stand" or second hand grip is OK but it would be nice to have a knob or grip closer to the top of the blower so you wouldn't have to spin the blower to grab the handle when using two hands. I have used other blowers at work and I like the fact that the fan inlet is inboard of the unit so you don't suck your clothes in and block the airflow when using it. I have used other blowers at work and this is by far the most powerful blower I have used yet. The wide nozzle doesn't seem to work for me but it may work with large swaths of dry leaves in the fall. I also have found no use for the "cruise control" dial yet. I'm looking forward to using the stub nozzle for drying my car after washing and blowing snow off of it in the winter. We'll see how that works when the time comes. In the meantime, I'm loving my new blower and look forward to mowing my entire lawn in one shot without waiting for my single battery to charge now that I have 2 batteries. I'm a happy camper and yard work is so much easier now with my new blower. Cheers, John

I love the increased CFM compared to the blower from 2014 that I was using. The flexibility with the different tips is nice. They have been handy. I am amazed at how long the battery lasts. It is heavy with the 5.0 Ah battery. I am waiting for that battery to need a recharge and I will be trying the 2.5 Ah battery to see how the weight and handling characteristics are. I thought it would be quieter that it is, but at least the tone is changed from my previous blower that was more high pitched.

I haven't tried the 880 CFM blower, but this 765 CFM exceeded my expectations. I found it a little heavy with the 5Ah battery, but I was pleased to see it came with the EGO strap, and that makes it much more easier to handle. I'm considering adding a 2nd handle to it, but really, with the strap it works fine for me. I like the variable speed dial, and preferred it over the idea of the cruise-lock design on the 880 (even though I never tried it). The 765 CFM has plenty of power for me, barely ever needing the Turbo mode, except for those rare stubborn leaves that cling to our outdoor rugs (and I get too lazy to bend down and loosen it). My set up came without the extra 2.5Ah battery deal, so I only got the 5Ah. I wonder if that lighter battery would make a much lighter set-up, but as I said, using the strap resolves that. This is my first EGO device, and I am happy with the runtime, the charge-time on the battery, and the overall power performance of the system. I'm in the process of purging all my old (gas & corded) lawn equipment and I think this blower is the start of my jump into the EGO Power+ world. There is a mower and a string trimmer in my future. I really like the LM2244SP-2 mower, and considering an ST1611T trimmer. Unfortunately I missed a great bundle deal Lowe's had on that exact package - My hope is that it will return soon. As an engineer that works for a mining company that actually has fully electrified machines, the battery technology is important to me, thus why I was impressed by EGO. I expect that with simple proper battery care, minding its storage charge states, and keeping them in a moderate temp controlled environment, they will provide many years of service. Batteries are expensive, but from experience I know that if you treat them right, they will provide a nice long service life. I strongly recommend the 765 CFM blower for anyone that is looking for a very powerful unit and understands this isn't one of those lightweight units that barely moves debris. This is a powerhouse best used for those big jobs that require muscle!

I'm glad I bought as powerful a unit as I did. As it is, I run out of battery before work, especially with leaves, but… it recharged pretty fast (I opted not to get a second battery for cost reasons). Also, being cordless, I've used it on light snow which is helpful. The cold cold gets to the battery, but I can clear a good amount. (I keep the battery and charger indoors in the winter.) All in all… it's not as powerful as my old corded, but that died and… This works. If you need lots of run time, get a second battery or else, take a break and hydrate.

Year old tool. When it works, it's terrific. The other part is that this year old, lightly used tool failed. Because I didn't register this tool, customer service was useless. If I didn't have so much investment in this brand of tool, I would seek a different brand.
