Description
Zoom on the Senix BLVE12-M
The Senix BLVE12-M is a corded electric handheld blower that is a good match for homeowners with a yard that is generally under a quarter acre, where upkeep is light and occasional.
It sports a max air speed of 179 MPH and a max air volume rating of 420 cubic feet per minute (CFM). 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 BLVE12-M uses a 12-amp motor and will run continuously with a reliable power supply, with its range determined by the cord used. It's important to note that some blowers are sold without a power cord. If you need one, make use of our gauge calculator to select the correct cord length for your needs. The BLVE12-M features a cord lock, preventing the cord from being accidentally pulled out while operating the blower.
This unit is a one-speed leaf blower, which means that it's either turned on or turned off.
This handheld blower weighs 8.2 lbs and is built for one-handed operation with precise airflow control.
After clearing leaves, the BLVE12-M can switch to vacuum mode, collecting leaves into a handy bag (11.9 gallon bag included). Building on its vacuum capability, this unit’s mulching ratio of 14:1 can shrink 14 bags of leaves down to a single bag of mulch as they are vacuumed. The unit uses a plastic impeller.
The Senix BLVE12-M's performance versus other blowers
The following charts are provided to give you an idea how the key specs of the Senix BLVE12-M compare with similar leaf blowers.
- In its category of corded blowers, the Senix BLVE12-M represents one of the heavier builds at 8.2 lbs. To enjoy the lowest possible weight in this category, you could have a look at the Sun Joe SBJ597E which is only 3.9 lbs.
- Upon exiting the nozzle, the air can reach speeds of up to 179 MPH, which is pretty much what is to be expected for electric handheld blowers. If you wish to benefit from air expelled at the fastest possible speed, the Craftsman CMEBL7000 and its 260 MPH could be an option to consider.
- It has a maximum air volume output of 420 CFM (cubic feet per minute). With this output rating, the BLVE12-M is well within average in relation to similar corded blowers. If air volume is important to you, the Worx Turbine WG521, with 800 CFM, could be in your good books.
