Description
Overview of the Ryobi RY404150
- Power: The Ryobi RY404150 is a cordless blower with a maximum air volume rating of 600 cubic feet per minute (CFM) and an air speed of 100 MPH.
- Power delivery: With its brushless motor, the Ryobi RY404150 delivers cordless functionality, allowing users to maneuver freely and efficiently during lawn care routines.
- Battery: It has 4 Ah 40 V Li-ion battery (2 OP40404 batteries included) that should work reliably for up to 18 minutes if completely charged.
- Handling: Being handheld, this leaf blower is inherently easier to manage and transport compared to larger alternatives like backpack or walk-behind models. However, for a cordless handheld blower, the Ryobi RY404150 is heavier than most, weighing 15.2 lbs.
- Speed Settings: Thanks to its 3 speed settings, the Ryobi RY404150 allows the user to adjust the air output to the task in hand.
- Vacuum: For those who really want to make leaves disappear, the RY404150 has a handy 'blower vac' feature (the keyword here being 'vac', aka 'vacuum'). It allows the operator to collect leaves and light debris in a collection bag to be easily discarded after the job is finished (10.5 gallon bag included).
- Mulching: Its impressive mulching ratio of 20:1 allows this mulcher to compress 20 bags of leaves and debris into just one bag of mulch. The unit uses a metal impeller.
- Noise: The RY404150's noise level is rated at 65 dB, which is standard for electric handheld blowers.

The Ryobi RY404150's performance versus other blowers
The following charts are provided to give you an idea how the key specs of the Ryobi RY404150 compare with handheld leaf blowers of similar voltage (between 36 and 48V).
- Air expelled from the nozzle of this blower can reach 100 MPH. When compared to others of this type, the RY404150 has a lower air speed than most battery-operated handheld blowers in the 36 and 48V range. For the fastest air speed in this category, you may want to consider the Husqvarna 350iB, which can expell air at a velocity that can reach 200 MPH.
- For those prioritizing air volume, the Ryobi's RY404150 delivers with a maximum airflow of 600 CFM (cubic feet per minute), surpassing most cordless handheld blowers. If air volume is important to you, the Husqvarna 350iB, with 800 CFM, could be in your good books.
- Users can anticipate a maximum autonomy of 18 minutes from its battery, suggesting that the RY404150's runtime is below average among cordless handheld units. 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.
