Kobalt 40v 480-CFM 110-MPH Cordless Battery Handheld Leaf Blower Battery and Charger Not Included

Works great but pulls a lot of battery power.

This blower does what I would expect it to do. I had a plug in blower but this is so much easier and makes my clean up after mowing a breeze. There is also has a turbo push button if you need a little more power. I also look forward to using it on light powdery snows next winter. Unfortunately, this thing really draws the power from the 40V battery. I have a trimmer and bushwacker that uses the same battery and I can work for 45 min with one charge. But the blower will wear down the battery in 1...

40 min run time battery life? No way.

480 CFM Mod# KHB - 3034: Even when brand new, most 3a battery run time I ever got was just under 20 min, NOT 40. Run time now just under 15 min with 3a good condition battery. They are Flat out, bold faced LAIRS and everybody knows it. This is true with ALL KOBALT battery powered tools. KOBALT CRIMINALLY EXAGGERATES RUN TIME 100%

Great Mower, Shoddy Batteries

I bought this mower (as well as a trimmer) about 4 months ago. We have a new home, so the first several months our sod didn't do much growing and didn't need much mowing but grass still had to be cut occasionally. Those first few months, the mower and trimmer worked like a dream. The battery lasted about 40 minutes as described. However, over the last several times trying to mow our yard, the battery has died after about 10 minutes and now is showing an indicator light signifying the batteri...

Battery life

I have been buying batteries from lowes since they placed them for sale. I purchased a weed eater,blower and lawnmower. In the past 4 years .I have had 2 batteries go bad. I now have 3. I don’t run them down to zero lights. When only one power lite illumine ,I charge it. On the lawn mower.sometimes power indicator shows 4 lights ,but when installed mower it runs for 2 minutes and motor stops. On one of the old batteries,I disassembled it and there were 10 nimh batteries. One was dead. S...

Not as powerful as I hoped

I really like the Kobalt products and how you can use the same batteries in different products. I LOVE the lightweight 40v weed eater and that's why I bought this leaf blower. I also have the 80v weed eater but can't just change out the string like you can on the 40v - which is why I bought the 40V. Changing the string on the 80v is difficult. Anyway, this blower does not have near the blowing strength I thought it would have. It's ok for blowing off the driveway but I have to go back to my...

5 months on and it doesn't work.

I bought this to replace the same model blower, but several years old. Had great luck with it but it was used hard and run over by a truck, so when I decided to replace it, I ordered the same blower. The new blower looks identical, but never did put out as much and now has stopped working. Well, sorta. I'll put the battery in and use it and it works fine. If I set it down for more than about a minute and it won't start again unless I remove, then re-insert the battery. Always, every time. I had ...

Battery discharge in 10 min

I purchased the kaobolt 40v self propelled mower on 6/20/21. It worked great the first day, the battery lasted about 25 mim. The following week I put a fully charged battery in and started to cut my lawn, the battery lasted about 10 min. I had purchased a spare battery and put it fully charged into the mower, same results. I went to lowes because I thought the batteries were defective. they replaced the batteries and I charged them for 3 hrs. the batteries were fully charged, so I tried to cut t...

Working fine yesterday dead won't charge now.

I purchased this from Lowes almost two years ago. I've noticed that I get less and less time out of the battery. I have a small yard that I mow and weed wack weekly because if we don't we get fined by the HOA. I can only get 1/2 the work done stop and then recharge. This really ticks me off to the point where I am really disappointed that I spent my money on this product. My gas-powered tools never let me down like these do week after week.

Don't buy get a gas one instead

Don't buy unless you have grass that doesn't get long doesn't get wet and have a super small lawn. its not worth the money your not saving anything the battery only lasts the full 30 min if you don't have long grass or wet grass and don't use the self propelled feature if any other condition the its like 10-15min. Its not as strong as a gas one it will stop many times during mowing one row of grass a gas one wont do that. A nother thing to consider is if the battery dies you have to wait like an...

Lightweight and easy to handle

I was looking for a lightweight , battery powered, blower to sweep leaves, maple propellers etc off my porch, deck and driveway. I already had the battery and charger that fit this blower because I have the Kobalt string trimmer. This fits my needs perfectly. The adjustable speed is great. I do wish the intake was positioned elsewhere. I have to hold the blower away from my body so it doesn't get blocked. That's what prevents this from being a 5 star item in my opinion. I also wish the blower t...
