The Kobalt KHB 4224A-03

  • Power: The Kobalt KHB 4224A-03 is a cordless blower with a maximum air volume rating of 500 cubic feet per minute (CFM) and an air speed of 120 MPH.
  • Power delivery: If you don’t like dealing with cords, you will be delighted to know that this blower is equipped with a brushless, battery-operated motor.
  • Battery: Its 4 Ah 24 V Li-ion battery (1 KB 424-03 battery included) enables the blower to run for up to 50 minutes without needing to recharge.
  • Handling: It’s handheld, so naturally it’s easier to handle and carry than larger leaf blowers, such as backpack models or walk-behinds. Among other cordless handheld blowers, the Kobalt KHB 4224A-03 can be considered light, weighing only 5.4 lbs, battery included.
  • Speed Settings: For those who are keen on having complete control while operating their leaf blower, the KHB 4224A-03 offers variable speed settings.

  • Its max air speed of 120 MPH places it at the approximate midpoint in comparison to other battery-operated handheld blowers. If you wish to benefit from air expelled at the fastest possible speed, the Makita XBU01PT and its 208 MPH could be an option to consider.
  • Regarding its air volume, the airflow of the Kobalt KHB 4224A-03 can reach 500 CFM (Cubic Feet per Minute), which is on par with other cordless handheld blowers. If air volume is important to you, the Husqvarna 350iB, with 800 CFM, could be in your good books.
