Makita XBU03SM1 Blower Kit, Battery Included, 4 Ah, 18 V, Lithium-Ion, 459 cfm Air

With zero emissions and lower noise, the 18 V LXT® brushless cordless blower kit (XBU03SM1) is a welcome solution for clean-up applications. It's powered by one 18 V LXT® battery, the same battery that powers the full range of solutions in the expanding LXT® system. This blower features a compact and ergonomic design, weighing in at only 6.5 lb and measuring 32-1/2 in L. With no carbon brushes, the Makita® BL™ motor runs cooler and more efficiently for longer life and delivers speeds up to 116 mph air velocity and a full 459 cfm. Makita's efficient BL™ motor is electronically controlled to optimize battery energy use for up to 50% longer runtime per battery charge than similar non-brushless tools. Electronic controls efficiently use battery energy to match the changing demands of the application for increased power and speed when needed. A cruise control lever provides management of power and runtime.
