i'm not here to read articles most of the time, because people talk about what's in the article here. And in this case, leaf blowers, specifically electric ones are a bit quieter in near field operations.
Which i definitely expected, based off of the headline, but like i said, compared to a traditional ICE leaf blower, especially commercial backpack setups. Does it make a difference? Uhm. Not sure.
It's funny to me that people yell at me about not reading articles, even though i understand the general pretense of it, without reading it. People literally corrected me by stating numbers, because that was the only thing i didn't mention, since i didn't read the article. And i didn't even come here to speak about it, i mostly came here to complain about the fact that small ICE engines exist on lawn equipment.
