The Toro 51820's performance versus other blowers
The following charts are provided to give you an idea how the key specs of the Toro 51820 compare with handheld leaf blowers of similar voltage (between 56 and 60V).
- Maxing out at 115 MPH at full power, this blower is on the lower end in terms of air speed for battery-operated handheld blowers between 56 and 60V. For the fastest air speed in this category, you may want to consider the EGO LB7654, which can expell air at a velocity that can reach 200 MPH.
- It has a maximum air volume output of 605 CFM (cubic feet per minute). With this output rating, the 51820 is well within average in relation to similar cordless handheld blowers with a comparable voltage. If air volume is important to you, the CAT DG651, with 800 CFM, could be in your good books.
- Thanks to its autonomy of up to 90 mins, the 51820 benefits from a higher run time than many cordless handheld units in the aforementioned voltage range. If autonomy is an important factor for you, the Toro 51822 can run for up to 140 minutes and could be worth considering.
