Zoom on the Dewalt DCBL724W1
The Dewalt DCBL724W1
With its cordless handheld design, the Dewalt DCBL724W1 is suited for homeowners with a patio or small yard that does not require frequent or large-scale cleanup.
It is capable of expelling a maximum air volume of 550 cubic feet per minute (CFM). Its air speed is rated at 133 miles per hour (MPH). These values mean that it should manage everyday yard leaves rather efficiently, but also have the power to handle denser material or small piles of heavier debris across lawns, patios, and garden paths.
With a 20V brushless motor, the DCBL724W1 functions as a cordless blower, offering freedom of movement. It includes an 8.0Ah battery, able to deliver up to 17 minutes of runtime on a full charge.
For those who wish to have complete control while operating their leaf blower, the DCBL724W1 offers variable speed settings, and moreover, is also equipped with cruise control, which allows the user to comfortably continue blowing at their preferred setting.
With a bare tool weight of 8.5 lbs and 10.7 lbs with the battery, this handheld unit can be guided with one hand to direct airflow where needed.
The Dewalt DCBL724W1's performance versus other blowers
The following charts are provided to give you an idea how the key specs of the Dewalt DCBL724W1 compare with handheld leaf blowers of similar voltage (between 18 and 24V).
- In its category of cordless handheld blowers in the 18 to 24V range, the Dewalt DCBL724W1 represents one of the heavier bare tool builds at 8.5 lbs. To enjoy the lowest possible weight in this category, you could have a look at the Worx WG543 which is only 2.3 lbs the bare tool.
- Air exiting this blower's nozzle can reach speeds of 133 MPH, marking it as considerably swifter than most 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.
- The DCBL724W1 is powerful, with an airflow rating of 550 CFM (cubic feet per minute). This is the highest CFM among cordless handheld blowers with a comparable voltage.
- Users can expect a maximum autonomy of 17 minutes from its battery, which means the DCBL724W1 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 Ryobi PBLLB01K which offers up to 60 minutes of runtime.
- While runtime is an important metric, it is closely tied to battery capacity. To understand performance more clearly, it’s also useful to look at runtime efficiency, how long the unit runs relative to its battery size. The Dewalt DCBL724W1 shows relatively low runtime efficiency, providing fewer minutes of operation for each unit of battery power. If you are focused on getting more use per charge, the Sun Joe 24V-JB-LTE offers the highest runtime efficiency, at 1.04 minutes per Wh.
Price comparison
As you can see from these interactive charts, when compared to other 18-24V cordless blowers, the Dewalt DCBL724W1 is on the average side of the price range.
