Echo PB-580T Backpack Leaf Blower vs Greenworks 80V Cordless Backpack Blower

The Echo PB-580T is the stronger blower: more air speed, a bigger gas engine that runs all day on a tank, and a long record of easy starts and smooth power from owners. The Greenworks 80V is lighter on the back and starts with a trigger instead of a pull cord, but its turbo run time is short and its 180 MPH air speed is well below the Echo. Buy the Echo for large yards, wet leaves and long sessions; buy the Greenworks if you want quiet, fume-free work in small yards and already own 80V batteries.

• Choose the Echo PB-580T if you have a big yard, heavy leaf fall or wet debris, and want maximum blowing force without battery limits.
• Choose the Greenworks 80V if you want a lighter, quieter, cordless backpack for quick cleanups on a small lot and already use Greenworks 80V tools.
