Unfortunately a battery powered leaf blower sound is almost as annoying as a combustion engine powered one. It's "quieter" for sure if decibels are measured but it makes a quite loud high pitch brain piercing squeal. I have neighbors with both kinds of leaf blowers, and I can't decide which one is more annoying.

Disagree. 109 db is typical for a gas powered one. Electric hovers around 70 db. Of course, you can be annoyed by both. But then the solution is to move somewhere without neighbours.

  A reminder that the decibel scale isn't linear. Much debate about how to define loudness, but human perception is roughly 10db as twice as loud. 110db is roughly 16x as loud as 70.
