Zoom on the Senix BLAX5-M
The Senix BLAX5-M
With its cordless handheld design, the Senix BLAX5-M is suited for homeowners with yards that fall in the mid-size range, suitable for seasonal cleanup and routine care.
It is rated for a max air volume of 520 cubic feet per minute (CFM) and a max air speed of 129 MPH. Practically, this means the blower should handle large amounts of leaves across yards, patios, or driveways while also having enough speed to move damp leaves, acorns, or small twigs.
The BLAX5-M is equipped with a 58V brushless motor and runs on battery power, enabling mobility without a cord. A 2.5Ah battery is included, giving up to 22 minutes of runtime on a full charge.
Not all jobs need full power. The BLAX5-M has 3 speed settings so, you can blow more or less air from the blower depending on the job.
With a bare tool weight of 5.3 lbs and 7.5 lbs with the battery, this handheld unit can be guided with one hand to direct airflow where needed.

The Senix BLAX5-M's performance versus other blowers
The following charts are provided to give you an idea how the key specs of the Senix BLAX5-M compare with handheld leaf blowers of similar voltage (between 56 and 60V).
- Compared to its counterparts, the Senix BLAX5-M offers a lighter bare tool option within the cordless handheld in the 56 to 60V range, at 5.3 lbs. Should weight be a deciding factor, the EGO LB7654 is worth a look at just 4.6 lbs the bare tool.
- Exiting the nozzle, the air can reach speeds of up to 129 MPH, which falls on the lower end for battery-operated handheld blowers between 56 and 60V. For the fastest air speed in this category, you may want to consider the EGO LB8803-2, which can expell air at a velocity that can reach 200 MPH.
- At 520 CFM (cubic feet per minute), its airflow output is modest compared to other cordless handheld blowers with a comparable voltage. For the highest air volume, you may want to have a look at the EGO LBX1000, which boasts with 1000 CFM.
- Users can expect a maximum autonomy of 22 minutes from its battery, which means the BLAX5-M won't run as long as many other cordless handheld units before needing to be plugged in. To enjoy the best possible autonomy in this category, you could have a look at the Echo DPB-2610 which offers up to 175 minutes of runtime.
- Because larger batteries naturally increase runtime, it can be helpful to consider runtime efficiency, a measure of how effectively a blower uses the energy available. The Senix BLAX5-M shows relatively low runtime efficiency, providing fewer minutes of operation for each unit of battery power. If you are focused on getting more use per charge, the Echo DPB-2500 offers the highest runtime efficiency, at 0.64 minutes per Wh.
Price comparison
As you can see from these interactive charts, when compared to other 56-60V cordless blowers, the Senix BLAX5-M is on the cheap side of the price range.
It can therefore be a really good buy if you're looking to acquire a budget blower.
The bottom line
- Inexpensive
- Brushless motor
- Light bare tool weight (5.3 lbs)
- Low CFM for its voltage
- Low MPH (129 MPH)
- Low autonomy (22 mins)
- Low power efficiency
