The Gustwind clears a driveway, a patio and the gutter line along a path without the noise and the fuel mixing of a two-stroke. A brushless 40V motor moves 600 cubic feet of air a minute at up to 130 MPH, which is enough to shift wet leaves off gravel, not just dry ones off concrete.
The trigger is variable, so you can drop the speed to walk leaves out of a flower bed without stripping the mulch with them, then squeeze the turbo button for the compacted line where the leaves meet the kerb. A cruise-control lock holds a steady speed through a long sweep so your finger is not doing the work. At 7.2 lb it hangs comfortably from one hand for the length of an average driveway.
The tapered nozzle concentrates the air into a narrow blade for corners; pull it off and the wider outlet spreads the flow for open ground. The 40V pack and charger are included and fit the Ridgeline mower, the Trailhead trimmer and the Hedgerow hedge trimmer.

Care
Wear eye protection and keep the nozzle clear of loose grit near windows and cars. Take the battery out before clearing the air intake, and check the intake grille for stuck leaves after every use – a blocked intake makes the motor work harder and cuts the run time noticeably.
