I welcome even quieter electric, but the two stroke engine on most blowers (particularly the pack blowers) is the real problem and they are EVERYWHERE. Every day from sun up to sun down from March until December my neighborhood has a nearly constant drone and reeks of two stroke gas. It has gotten so much worse over the past 7 years I’ve lived here, and sharply worse since pandemic. I dunno if it’s attributed to more affordable pack models becoming more popular with homeowners or increased usage of landscapers, but it has become an extreme nuisance. I have a handheld electric to help with a couple of hard to reach spots. While it’s not as quiet as I wish, you can’t (well, least I can’t, from my testing) really hear it after about 75 to 100 feet. The surrounding neighbors’ blowers can be heard over a quarter mile away when I’m walking around the block. It has ruined enjoying time out in the backyard, especially during the fall which is my favorite season.
