Would you buy a cordless leaf blower?

I know that’s not the usual subject we reach here on GadgetRoad , but i was curious if you would ever buy a cordless leaf blower (electric sweeper). After-all, these tools can be considered everyday house accessories, especially during the fall season.

That bothers me because i wanted to buy such a device and i started searching the WEB for the best offers. I found a site with many products and price cuts on leaf blowers , but they had very few cordless versions. Also, they say that these cordless devices have quite a few inconvenient: limited operational time of just 30 minutes, limited power and high price. The last one might not be a problem, cause i found this Black & Decker NS118 on Amazon for just $70 . But the other two…

Anyway, i still want to buy it, but I’m not sure how good will it be. I reckon it will do just fine sweeping the deck or the step-ways, but will fail at blowing leafs and debriefs from the lawn. A gas powered blower might be better for that, but i hate the noise it makes and the smell of burned gas.

So, if any of you have such had a similar dilemma before, please help me with an advice or two. I really have to buy this device asap, cause price cuts for leaf blowers won’t stay that big for too long, as fall approaches.
