Ryobi’s HP Jet Fan Blower and Vacuum is a hybrid tool designed to tackle fallen leaves, no matter what tactics they employ. The device’s internal motor can propel air in both directions at 600 CFM and 100 MPH, more than enough muscle to disrupt leaves no matter how wet and clumpy they get.
The blower setting can send leaves flying with jet power, but if you’re looking for a more permanent solution, the vacuum setting can capture large quantities of leaves and stash them in the included collection bag. The vacuum also includes a sturdy internal impeller, compressing any captured leaves and debris at a 20:1 ratio, which makes it great for collecting leaves for composting.
The Jet Fan Blower and Vacuum is a part of Ryobi’s 40V product line, which means it utilizes the same heavy-duty battery packs as the other products in the line. The Jet Fan Blower and Vacuum kit includes a pair of 40V 4Ah lithium battery packs plus a rapid charger. Just juice up a pack, snap it onto the device, and you’ll get up to 18 minutes of continuous leaf-busting action. When the battery runs dry, just pop off the pack, snap on the other one, and keep the pressure up while the first pack recharges.
Ryobi’s HP Jet Fan Blower and Vacuum kit is available now at major hardware retailers like Home Depot.
