Is the Milwaukee M18 FUEL 500CFM blower good for fall leaves?

Yes for driveways, patios and lawns with moderate leaf cover. For large yards with deep, wet leaves, a gas backpack blower moves more air.

What battery does the kit include?

The kit ships with an M18 battery and charger. Check the listing for the exact battery capacity, since run time depends on it.

How long does it run on a charge?

Run time varies with the battery pack and speed setting. Expect shorter runs at full 500 CFM and longer runs at lower speeds.

Does it work with batteries I already own from other Milwaukee tools?

Yes, it runs on Milwaukee's M18 batteries, so packs from other M18 tools work in it.

Is it quieter than a gas blower?

Yes. It makes motor and fan noise rather than engine noise, and Milwaukee rates it at 54 dB(A), up to 40% quieter than the competition.

What is the difference between the M18 FUEL blower and the non-FUEL M18 blower?

The FUEL version uses a POWERSTATE brushless motor rated at 500 CFM and 120 MPH and reaches full throttle in under a second. The non-FUEL model is a lower-output brushed design.

About the Milwaukee M18 FUEL 500CFM Blower Kit

The Milwaukee M18 FUEL 500CFM Blower Kit is a cordless handheld leaf blower built on Milwaukee's 18V battery platform, sold as a kit with battery and charger. It moves up to 500 CFM and 120 MPH, reaching full throttle in under a second, which puts it in the mid-range of cordless blowers: strong enough for driveways, patios and light leaf cleanup, not a match for big gas backpack units. Milwaukee rates it at 54 dB(A), up to 40% quieter than the competition, and it is optimized for M18 REDLITHIUM HIGH OUTPUT packs. Reviewers like its power and convenience for home cleanup but say run time depends on the battery and it trails gas blowers on big jobs.
