Leaf Blowers: Husqvarna 145BT or Echo PB-261L or Husqvarna 125BT???
Original Message Sep 15, 2006 10:01 pm

I have a yard about 200 deep with trees up and down the side as well as all along the back. Huge trees. Because the yard is big and trees are many, I’ll be running it probably an hour to an hour and a half at a time.

I know that the Echo PB-261L and Husqvarna 125BT are 25cc engines so not really fair to compare them with the 145 but was wondering if I really need the extra power of145BT.

Right now pricing for the 125 BT is $199. The Echo is $279 ($229 with rebate) and the 145 is $299.

Really just want to make sure that whatever I buy doesn’t die after a year or two.

Any comments welcomed.

Thanks.
