Electric leaf blowers will make use of an electrical cord to deliver power to the motor. Because you’re not carrying a battery on the blower, a corded electric leaf blower often will be lighter than battery-powered electric blowers. However, you are limited to where you can use this style of blower. You only can move as far from an electrical outlet as your extension cord allows. Electric leaf blowers require very little maintenance, certainly far less than gasoline-powered blowers. To prevent the electric leaf blower’s motor from becoming damaged, you must use an extension cord that's rated to safely handle the power demands of the unit.
