Ego POWER+ 765 CFM Blower LB7654 Reviews

Fatigue on a long driveway went away after resting the blower on the hip with the shoulder strap, with the battery blocking the air intake so nothing gets sucked in.

Runs it on a large 7.5Ah battery, which makes it heavy but lets a full leaf job finish without swapping batteries.

The handheld gets about 30 minutes on high from a single 5Ah battery, but holding it that long tires the arm, so the backpack gets used for fall and spring leaf cleanup.

With both the handheld 765 and the backpack model at two homes, the handheld on a large battery becomes tiring over time.

Blower arrived delivered with sealed straps but a brick in the box instead of the battery, so it had to go back to the store.

Main blower for big leaf piles, but heavy enough to need two hands most of the time and tiring after half an hour, so a lighter old blower covers quick jobs.

After repeated frustration with battery leaf blowers, this one impressed them enough that their collection of the brand grew over three years.

Static shocks have never happened during use of this model.

Came with a free 2.5Ah battery, and the power is more than enough for their yard, with lower noise that makes it nicer than the louder alternative.

A free battery promo brought it home, and it works great for roof and driveway cleanup.

Very happy after moving up from a 650 CFM blower; also picked up a stronger one later for clearing light snow off driveways and cars.

Fall purchase for heavy leaf work; multi-hour cleanups meant swapping a 5Ah and a 4Ah battery, and the blower is called a beast.

Fairly new unit surges after running a while and the battery display goes dark until reseated; the battery drains in about 15 minutes at full power and lower modes are much weaker.

The unit died completely after three weeks; the store swapped it easily, but with no new receipt the replacement may not be registrable and trust in it is shaky.

Direct comparison against a DeWalt 20V handheld blower, finding the Ego clearly better, faster, stronger and quieter.

A rock damaged the propeller fins, a swapped-in propeller left the balance slightly off and the unit died within a couple of months; the maker refused warranty coverage for that damage.

With a 4 or 5ah pack the kit is pretty heavy, comparable to an old gas blower; the tool-plus-battery kit included a shoulder strap.

With two 5ah batteries the whole setup feels too heavy for casual use, and a smaller 2.5ah pack is being considered to shave weight.

Three of these blowers at a landscaping workplace all failed within three months, while the older 650 CFM blowers there have lasted nearly three years.

Two brand new units bought from different stores both developed the same trigger failure, and both were returned for a refund.
