The Makita 120 MPH 473 CFM LXT 18VX2 (36V) Brushless Blower Kit is a cordless handheld blower designed for yard cleanup and leaf management. Powered by two 5.0 Ah batteries working together for 36V output, it delivers impressive air speed and volume while operating at a reasonable 61 dB noise level. The kit includes a vacuum attachment for collecting debris, interchangeable nozzle connections for versatility, adjustable speed settings, and a bonus 18V LXT/12V max CXT Bluetooth speaker. Everything you need to get started comes in the box: two batteries, a charger, and multiple sized nozzles. The blower weighs 26.46 pounds and measures 33.07 inches wide. Makita backs the tool, batteries, and charger with a 3-year limited warranty, and the purchase is returnable within 90 days.
Always buy a dual-hose model over a single-hose model; single-hose units pull hot air from outside into the house, defeating their purpose. Pay attention to the 'SACC' BTU rating, not the older ASHRAE rating. Available from $729.
Portable ACs are highly inefficient compared to window units, leading to high electricity bills. The only minor maintenance is cleaning the dust filter and occasionally replacing window seals.
Common Failure Modes
Compressor failure or refrigerant leaks render the unit useless and are rarely cost-effective to repair. Internal float switches can fail, causing the unit to stop cooling or leak water.
