I have both. My 80v leaf blower is pretty decent for about 15 minutes, and with two batteries there isnt a ton of downtime. However, we also have three massive cottonwood trees among plenty of other maple and crap that amounts to feet of fallen leaves to clean up. On a whim I got a backpack style gas leaf blower, and now we only use the battery one for "maintenance" blowing. There simply isn't a good analogy to describe the difference. That said, at my previous house in the suburbs, the battery powered one was plenty sufficient, so YMMV.
