Review: Milwaukee M18 FUEL Blower
If you are looking for a powerful, lightweight and cordless blower to keep your yard, driveway or patio clean, you might want to check out the Milwaukee M18 FUEL Blower. This tool is part of the M18 system, which offers over 250 compatible solutions for various applications. In this blog post, I will review some of the features and benefits of this blower and why it might be a good choice for you.
The Milwaukee M18 FUEL Blower has a POWERSTATE brushless motor that delivers more power under load and longer motor life. It also has a REDLINK PLUS intelligence system that provides optimized performance and overload protection using total system communication between the tool, the battery and the charger. The blower uses an M18 REDLITHIUM HIGH OUTPUT XC8.0 battery (sold separately) that provides 50% more power and runs 50% cooler than the standard M18 REDLITHIUM XC battery packs.
One of the most impressive aspects of this blower is its ability to clear debris from 15 feet away, thanks to its maximum air volume of 450 CFM and maximum air speed of 120 MPH. It also gets to full throttle in under 1 second, which means you don't have to wait for the blower to ramp up before you start working. The blower has a variable speed trigger and high/low speed settings for increased control. The high setting is for the most demanding applications, such as clearing leaves, grass clippings or snow from large areas. The low setting is optimized for clearing debris from flower beds without moving mulch or disturbing delicate plants. The blower also has a lock on button that allows you to lock the blower on to full throttle, so you can relax your operating hand and reduce fatigue.
The Milwaukee M18 FUEL Blower is also up to 4 lbs lighter than some of its competitors, weighing only 4.9 lbs without the battery. This makes it easier to maneuver and carry around for longer periods of time. The blower has a length of 33.8 inches, a height of 9.7 inches and a width of 5.87 inches. It has a sound pressure level of 62 dB, which is relatively quiet for a blower of this caliber.
The Milwaukee M18 FUEL Blower is sold as a tool only, which means you have to buy the battery and the charger separately. However, if you already have other M18 tools, you can use the same battery and charger for this blower. Alternatively, you can buy the blower as part of a combo kit that includes other M18 tools, such as a hammer drill or an impact driver, along with batteries and a charger.
The Milwaukee M18 FUEL Blower is a great option for anyone who needs a powerful, cordless and lightweight blower for their outdoor cleaning tasks. It has impressive performance, durability and versatility, and it is backed by a 5-year limited warranty from Milwaukee. You can find this blower at various online and offline retailers.
