- How much snow can it handle?
- It is a single-stage blower, so it works best in snow up to about 6 to 8 inches. Deeper or wet, heavy snow will slow it down and may clog the auger.
- Does it come with a battery and charger?
- That depends on the kit. Many listings are tool-only, so check the box contents before buying if you do not already own 40V batteries.
- How long does a battery last?
- Runtime depends on battery size, snow depth and temperature. Expect noticeably shorter runs in deep snow and in freezing conditions, where all lithium batteries lose capacity.
- Is it better than a gas snow blower?
- For light to moderate snow on a small driveway, yes: it is quieter, starts instantly and needs no fuel. For deep snow or long driveways, a gas two-stage clears faster and throws farther.
- Can it clear gravel or uneven surfaces?
- The auger can pick up loose gravel and debris. Adjust the skid shoes or keep the housing slightly raised on unpaved surfaces.
- What maintenance does it need?
- Very little. Keep the battery charged, check the auger and scraper bar for wear, and store it dry. There is no oil, spark plug or fuel to manage.
- Where is the 40V Brushless Cordless Snow Blower 20 Inch cheapest?
- At Kohl's, for $224.53, as of our latest check.
