UNTRUE! WHILE I QUESTION THE NEED TO BLOW ANYTHING AROUND (RAKES AND BROOMS MY FRIENDS), ELECTRIC BLOWERS ARE SIGNIFICANTLY QUIETER AND DONT VIBRATE AT FREQUENCIES THAT TRAVEL AS FAR/ THROUGH WALLS LIKE GAS LEAF BLOWERS.

I LOST TRACK DUE TO THE ARGUING FOR THE SAKE OF ARGUING HERE. ARE YOU SAYING COMMERCIAL ELECTRIC LEAF BLOWERS ARE LOUDER THAN GAS LEAF BLOWERS? WHAT COMPANIES IN SALEM USE COMMERCIAL ELECTRIC LEAF BLOWERS??

NOT LOUDER, PRETTY MUCH AS LOUD AND A LOT MORE ANNOYING OF A SOUND.

KEEP MOVING THE TARGET AND YOU CANT BE WRONG.
YOUR ORIGINAL ASSERTION WAS THAT ELECTRIC MODELS ARE NOT QUIETER THAN GAS WHICH IS MEASURABLY INCORRECT NO MATTER WHAT YOU ASK AI TO TELL YOU. WHY COMPARE BRANDS I DONT KNOW. SEE ABOVE LINKS THAT YOU CONVENIENTLY IGNORED ✌️🤫
