Description
Overview of the RedMax EBZ5150RH
- Power: The EBZ5150RH gas-powered blower, manufactured by RedMax, is rated for a max air volume of 434 cubic feet per minute (CFM) and a max air speed of 215 MPH.
- Handling: By design, this model isn’t the smallest leaf blower on the market. It’s meant to be carried as a backpack so that the bulk of the unit is out of the way and the user’s hands are free to manipulate the nozzle. Its throttle is located on the tube, which allows you to keep your left hand free. Among other gas-powered backpack blowers, the RedMax EBZ5150RH can be considered light, weighing only 20.7 lbs.
- Engine: This blower's Strato-Charged® engine has a displacement specification of 50.2cc. It's important to remember that this blower's engine operates on a 2-cycle system, meaning it relies on a specific blend of gas and oil for optimal performance. For the RedMax EBZ5150RH, this ratio is 50:1..
- Speed Settings: Thanks to its variable speed settings, the RedMax EBZ5150RH allows precise control of the air output.
- Noise: For gas-powered backpack blowers, the EBZ5150RH's 89 dB noise rating can be considered fairly typical.
- Fuel Tank: The RedMax blower's fuel tank boasts a standard capacity of 70.9 fluid ounces, aligning with the typical size found in gas backpack blowers.

Strato-Charged Engine Technology
RedMax's Strato-Charged 2-stroke engines are efficiently designed with just 3 moving parts. This allows them to be up to 20% more fuel-efficient than standard 2-stroke engines, to be 20 to 25% lighter than 4-stroke engines of the same size, and to produce low emissions that meet regulations without the need for a heated, heavy catalytic converter. Offering much less operator fatigue, these engines have a high power to weight ratio and can therefore be classified as high-performance.

- Strato-Charged® Engine
- Decent tank (70.9 fl. oz.)
- Acceptable noise (89 dB)

About RedMax
RedMax is an established power equipment brand in North America, known for its trimmers, chainsaws and, of course, leaf blowers. Interestingly, the company traces its roots back to Japan, where it was founded in 1910 as the Tokyo Gas Kogyo Company. TGCK went through numerous name changes and settled with the names Komatsu Zenoah (globally) and RedMax/Zenoah (North America), under which they sell their products to this day. The company was acquired by Husqvarna in 2007. RedMax has a somewhat extensive portfolio of more than 10 leaf blowers, both backpack and handheld, and has recently launched a battery powered product line. RedMax products are produced in various plants over the globe, which are not limited to Japan.
