No way, there is a SIGNIFICANT difference in noise between a gas powered weed whacker and an electric one. The only thing you hear in the latter is the bzzzzzzz which is a lot easier to deal with than a screaming 2 stroke.
- frosted-flakes 6y agoGP mentioned leaf blowers, not weed whippers. Of course electric weed whippers are quieter.
- overcast 6y agoElectric is always going to be quieter. Period. The sound of the fan is not the major contributor to noise. It's the loud ass two stroke.
- frosted-flakes 6y agoIt's both. Obviously, electric leafblowers will be quieter than 2-stroke leafblowers, but that doesn't make them quiet in any way. Just like electric cars are still loud at high speed and freeways will always be loud, because wind and tires make way more noise than any normal car engine crusing at 2000 rpm.
- overcast 6y agoIt's not the same, because cars have mufflers, and are MUCH quieter than your leaf blower during operation. Of course you're not going to eliminate all noise, but they are significantly reduced without an engine. Can't really compare a freeway to your neighborhood lawn care.
