Overview of the Black+Decker LSW20

The Black+Decker LSW20 in use

The Black+Decker LSW20

  • Power: The Black+Decker LSW20 is a cordless blower with a maximum air volume rating of 120 cubic feet per minute (CFM) and an air speed of 120 MPH.
  • Power delivery: As it is battery-operated, it doesn't need to be plugged in and therefore allows superb freedom of movement.
  • Battery: With its 1.5 Ah 20 V Li-ion battery (1 LBXR20 battery included), the Black+Decker LSW20 has a standard, full-charge run time of up to 15 minutes.
  • Handling: It’s handheld, so naturally it’s easier to handle and carry than larger leaf blowers, such as backpack models or walk-behinds. When compared to other cordless handheld blowers, the Black+Decker LSW20 stands out due to its lower weight: just 3.7 lbs battery included.
  • Speed Settings: This unit is a one-speed leaf blower.
  • Noise: With a decibel rating of 66 dB, the LSW20 is neither louder nor quieter than its rivals in the electric handheld category.

The Black+Decker LSW20's performance versus other blowers

The following charts are provided to give you an idea how the key specs of the Black+Decker LSW20 compare with handheld leaf blowers of similar voltage (between 18 and 24V).

  • It can push air from the nozzle at 120 MPH, which puts it ahead of its class in terms of air speed for battery-operated handheld blowers between 18 and 24V. If you wish to benefit from air expelled at the fastest possible speed, the Makita XBU07SM1 and its 143 MPH could be an option to consider.
  • It’s capable of expelling a maximum air volume of 120 CFM (cubic feet per minute). This places it at the low end compared to other cordless handheld blowers with a comparable voltage. For the highest air volume, you may want to have a look at the RIDGID R01601K, which boasts with 510 CFM.
  • Users can expect a maximum autonomy of 15 minutes from its battery, which means the LSW20 won't run as long as many other cordless handheld units before needing to be plugged in. To enjoy the best possible autonomy in this category, you could have a look at the Kobalt KHB 4224A-03 which offers up to 50 minutes of runtime.

Here's a list of the most popular specific comparisons:

As you can see from this interactive chart, when compared to other cordless blowers, the Black+Decker LSW20 is on the cheap side of the price range.
