- Does the Ego LB5300 Solo include a battery and charger?
- No. It is a bare tool, so you need an Ego 56V battery and charger, sold separately or already owned.
- How long does the battery last?
- Ego rates it at about 75 minutes, but expect less at full speed and more at lower settings.
- Is it good for wet or heavy leaves?
- It handles dry debris best. Wet, matted leaves may need a rake or a stronger gas blower.
- Which Ego batteries fit it?
- It runs on Ego's 56V ARC Lithium batteries, including the 2.5Ah and larger packs.
- How loud is it compared with a gas blower?
- At 65 dB it is much quieter than typical gas blowers and suitable for residential areas.
- Is it worth it over a cheaper cordless blower?
- If you already own Ego batteries, the runtime and quiet operation make it a strong value; without them, budget for a battery and charger.
- Where is the Ego LB5300 Solo cheapest?
- At Lowe's, for $149.00, as of our latest check.
