How much snow can it clear on one charge?

Expect a short driveway or a couple of walkways in light, dry snow. Wet or deep snow cuts run time sharply, so a spare battery helps.

Does it work on gravel or uneven ground?

Single-stage cordless blowers work best on paved surfaces. On gravel the auger can pick up stones, so keep the housing slightly raised.

It depends on the listing. Check whether the offer includes the 40V battery and charger, since buying them separately adds cost.

It is quieter, lighter and starts instantly, but gas two-stage models throw farther and handle deep, wet snow better.

It is best for a few inches of dry snow. For drifts over about 8 inches or plowed-in banks, a two-stage machine is the better tool.

Yes, on flat paved or wooden surfaces with light snow. Keep the auger off loose boards and clear the area of cords and mats first.
