Feel, Fuel & Noise

As the Poulan Pro PR48BT and the Husqvarna 150BT do not share the same manufacturer, their overall build and technology in use can vary.

• Handling: Manufactured as backpack blowers, these two products are equipped with large engines and spacious fuel tanks, offering comfortable carrying while you work. Both products have their throttle located on the tube of the blower, which allows you to keep your left hand free.
• Power Source: Both products, gas blowers, offer a swift refill system, saving you time on refueling and allowing you to efficiently manage large outdoor spaces.
• Weight:
  Sharing a weight of 22 lbs, both units provide a comparable user experience in terms of portability and maneuverability.
• Noise: Though the difference in noise levels between the Poulan Pro PR48BT, rating 96.7 dB, and the Husqvarna 150BT, standing at 94 dB, may seem insignificant, it could affect both the operator's comfort and nearby residents' tranquility.

CFM & MPH

• CFM:
  The Poulan Pro PR48BT boasts a slightly higher CFM rating of 475 compared to the Husqvarna 150BT (452 CFM), suggesting it may have a slight advantage in leaf-moving power.
• MPH: The Husqvarna 150BT, boasting an MPH of 270, notably outshines the 200 MPH of the Poulan Pro PR48BT, demonstrating superior capability in blowing leaves on grass or lifting heavier debris such as wet leaves and acorns.

Engine specs

• Fuel Tank: The Poulan Pro PR48BT's fuel tank has a volume of 49.3 fl.oz., exceeding the 42.6 fl.oz. of the Husqvarna 150BT. Therefore, you may store more fuel in the device and theoretically operate it longer, if their engines are equally demanding.
• Engine: In contrast, the Poulan Pro PR48BT's engine, with a displacement of 48cc, is slightly surpassed by the 51cc engine of the Husqvarna 150BT. As a result, the latter may consume marginally more fuel per stroke, potentially resulting in a slight power advantage. With 2-cycle engines, both leaf blowers mandate an oil/fuel mix as part of their operation.

Other features

• Vacuum Ability: Neither the Husqvarna 150BT nor the Poulan Pro PR48BT has the ability to vacuum leaves. Thus, you will require another method of leaf collection.
