CFM moves leaves, MPH lifts them · review
The gas option: a 28cc 2-cycle handheld at 470 CFM, with no cord or battery limits, but with mixed fuel and 94 dB in the table.
With fuel on hand, the 125B runs as long as you do. It clears 470 CFM at 170 MPH with a 9.4-pound weight.
It needs mixed fuel and maintenance, and at 94 dB it is the loudest here. Check local noise rules.
Wear eye and hearing protection, and keep the air stream away from people and pets. Noise figures on listings do not always say whether they are sound power or sound pressure.
Same section, nearest cost — what else that money buys.

It has a 2-cycle engine, which uses a fuel-oil mix. Follow Husqvarna’s ratio.
The table says 94 dB without naming the measure. Wear hearing protection.
7.8/ 10
Solid, but the EGO now beats it on the numbers.
A big property where charging is impractical.

The live figure beside a product went and asked the shop for it the moment this page opened; any amount written into the text has not moved since the sentence was drafted, and it is the first of the two that counts.
