Description
Overview of the Ryobi RY404130
- Power: This cordless leaf blower features a maximum air volume rating of 600 CFM and an air speed rating of 155 MPH.
- Power delivery: Ryobi designed this unit and its brushless, battery-operated motor with top-of-the-food-chain maneuverability in mind. The RY404130 doesn’t need to be plugged in, so you can take it anywhere easily. Ryobi claims that this unit delivers power of a 26cc gas blower.
- Battery: Its 4 Ah 40 V Li-ion battery (1 OP4040A1 battery combo included) means that a user can operate the RY404130 for an estimated 20 minutes on a full charge.
- Handling: For those who are looking for a portable and convenient leaf blower, this model is a strong candidate. It’s designed for easy handling and use, and its size means it’s easily carried and stored. However, for a cordless handheld blower, the Ryobi RY404130 is heavier than most, weighing 9.7 lbs.
- Speed Settings: 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 RY404130 offers variable speed settings, 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.
- Noise: At 55 dB, the noise produced by the RY404130 is in line with what you'd expect from other electric handheld blowers.

The Ryobi RY404130's performance versus other blowers
The following charts are provided to give you an idea how the key specs of the Ryobi RY404130 compare with handheld leaf blowers of similar voltage (between 36 and 48V).
- Upon exiting the nozzle, the air can reach speeds of up to 155 MPH, which is rather impressive for a battery-operated handheld blower between 36 and 48V. If you wish to benefit from air expelled at the fastest possible speed, the Husqvarna 350iB and its 200 MPH could be an option to consider.
- The RY404130 is powerful, with an airflow rating of 600 CFM (cubic feet per minute). This is certainly on the high end compared to other cordless handheld blowers with a comparable voltage. If air volume is important to you, the Husqvarna 350iB, with 800 CFM, could be in your good books.
- Its battery provides a maximum autonomy of 20 minutes, placing the RY404130 on the lower end in terms of runtime among its cordless counterparts. To enjoy the best possible autonomy in this category, you could have a look at the Makita CBU01Z which offers up to 300 minutes of runtime.
