Overview of the Ryobi RY404130

The Ryobi RY404130 in use

The Ryobi RY404130

  • Power: This cordless leaf blower has a maximum air volume rating of 600 cubic feet per minute (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.
  • Battery: Its 4 Ah 40 V Li-ion battery (1 OP4040A1 battery included) offers a maximum autonomy of 20 minutes on a full charge.
  • Handling: With its handheld design, this leaf blower was created with portability in mind. Most users will have no problem using it almost anywhere. Be aware that, at 9.7 lbs, the Ryobi RY404130 is on the heavier side of cordless handheld blowers.
  • Speed Settings: For those who wish to have complete control while operating their leaf blower, the RY404130 offers variable speed settings, and moreover, is also equipped with cruise control, which allows the user to comfortably continue blowing at their preferred setting.

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).

  • Air exiting the nozzle of this blower can reach 155 MPH, which is quite a bit faster than most battery-operated handheld blowers between 36 and 48V. 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 Ryobi RY404130 boasts an impressive airflow that can reach 600 CFM (Cubic Foot per Minute). This places it amongst the most powerful 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.
  • Autonomy-wise, with up to 20 minutes of autonomy on a full charge, the RY404130 is on the low end when compared with other cordless handheld units of similar voltage. 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.
