electric leaf blowers are fine for a small job like clearing a driveway, but not for anything serious

I have a rechargeable leaf blower...I'm forever going to get the rake because I've gone through both batteries and I want to finish the job
Depends on size?

My EGO electric blower blows just as hard as gas blower when I push the turbo button. (but that burns through battery pretty quick). I can get 7.0 AL battery to last hour plus but battery $350 dollars or more, lasts about 5 years depending on how many times it’s charged up.
