I tried the WORX blower yesterday and the battery only lasted 15 minutes or less. The outside temperature was around 90 degrees. I don't know if the heat caused the battery to overheat and stop working. I could not recharge the battery until the battery cooled down. I was only able to blow a few leaves on one side of my house, about 70 feet long by 8 feet wide. I was expecting to be able to do a lot more before the battery overheated and died on me. I will give it another try earlier in the morning when the outside temperature is under 80 degrees. My 20 volt lithium ion batteries for my drills have never overheated and I have used them for hours without any failure.
Received the blower and love it. It is a third of the old one's weight. It is easy to use and it saves about 50% of time to blow off the patio, deck, and the front entrance. Absolutely would recommend it to anyone.
I always had to wait for my husband to get out the big gas powered blower. Now, I can just grab this lightweight tool and get the job done fast. I love it!
I bought this formy hsband. He had been talking about wanting onebut he wouldn'buy for himself, so for his birthday I got it for him. He really loves it and he says it works great.
