The CAT DG651's performance versus other blowers
The following charts are provided to give you an idea how the key specs of the CAT DG651 compare with handheld leaf blowers of similar voltage (between 56 and 60V).
- Air exiting this blower's nozzle can reach speeds of 170 MPH, marking it as considerably swifter than most battery-operated handheld blowers. If you wish to benefit from air expelled at the fastest possible speed, the EGO LB8803-2 and its 200 MPH could be an option to consider.
- CAT DG651 boasts an impressive airflow, reaching 800 CFM (Cubic Foot per Minute), positioning it amongst the most powerful cordless handheld blowers. If air volume is important to you, the EGO LBX1000, with 1000 CFM, could be in your good books.
- Thanks to its autonomy of up to 110 mins, the DG651 benefits from a higher run time than many cordless handheld units in the aforementioned voltage range. If autonomy is an important factor for you, the Toro 51822 can run for up to 140 minutes and could be worth considering.
