Zoom on the EGO LB5804
The EGO LB5804
The EGO LB5804 is a cordless handheld blower that is a good match for homeowners with a typical home yard ranging from about a quarter to half an acre.
It is rated for a max air volume of 580 cubic feet per minute (CFM) and a max air speed of 168 MPH. To put it simply, it combines strong airflow to move piles of leaves in the yard with enough force to clear heavier material such as pine needles or acorns from patios and walkways.
Equipped with a 56V brushless motor, the unit operates on battery power for untethered use. A 5.0Ah battery is included, giving up to 75 minutes of runtime on a full charge.
There are times when you only need a little more power, while other times you will want a bit more precision when clearing leaves and debris. For this purpose, the LB5804 offers variable speed settings and a turbo button, adding you, the user, more control, and a cruise control mode, which will allow you to maintain it comfortably for as long as you wish.
At 4.8 lbs (bare tool) and 9.7 lbs with the battery, the blower’s handheld design lets the operator lift and aim it with one hand.
The EGO LB5804 carries an IPX4 rating, meaning it’s protected from splashes of water, useful when working in damp grass or light drizzle.

The EGO LB5804's performance versus other blowers
The following charts are provided to give you an idea how the key specs of the EGO LB5804 compare with handheld leaf blowers of similar voltage (between 56 and 60V).
- When compared to other cordless handheld blowers in the 56 to 60V range, the EGO LB5804 stands out for its lower bare tool weight: just 4.8 lbs. Should weight be a deciding factor, the EGO LB7654 is worth a look at just 4.6 lbs the bare tool.
- It can push air from the nozzle at 168 MPH, which puts it ahead of its class in terms of air speed for battery-operated handheld blowers between 56 and 60V. 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.
- With a maximum airflow of 580 CFM (cubic feet per minute), this model is on the lower end in terms of air circulation for cordless handheld blowers with a comparable voltage. For the highest air volume, you may want to have a look at the EGO LBX1000, which boasts with 1000 CFM.
- The autonomy of the LB5804 aligns with the industry standard for cordless handheld units in the 56V to 60V range, offering up to 75 minutes of operation when fully charged. If autonomy is an important factor for you, the Echo DPB-2610 can run for up to 175 minutes and could be worth considering.
- Runtime alone doesn’t always tell the full story because it depends heavily on battery capacity. Runtime efficiency can give a clearer picture by showing how much work you get per unit of battery power. With its current setup, the EGO LB5804 offers a lower level of runtime efficiency compared to the other compared battery-powered handheld models. If you are focused on getting more use per charge, the Echo DPB-2500 offers the highest runtime efficiency, at 0.64 minutes per Wh.
Here's a list of the most popular specific comparisons:
POWER+ Battery Technology
EGO's POWER+ technology is based on a high-end patented ARC Lithium™ design which utilizes a third row of cells to achieve high-voltage performance. Combined with a revolutionary phase-change material which envelopes each cell, the arc-design of the cell's arrangement allows for more efficient cooling and an optimum power distribution across all rows of cells. This technology also embeds a patented power management system that monitors and optimizes each individual battery cell to maximize its power, performance, and runtime. Moreover, the battery casing is completely sealed and has an enhanced shock and weather resistivity. Thus, the battery is protected from drops, rain and the elements.
The bottom line
- Brushless motor
- Cruise control
- 5 year (limited) warranty
- Light bare tool weight (4.8 lbs)
- High MPH (168 MPH)
- Good autonomy (75 mins)
- Low CFM for its voltage
- Low power efficiency
