A variable-speed trigger helps you match airflow to the job: use lower output around flower beds and gravel, then increase power for larger piles of dry leaves. A boost button supplies additional force when heavier debris requires a short burst of power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n  \u003Cp>This handheld leaf blower is intended for homeowners, property-maintenance users, and anyone already using CRAFTSMAN V20 batteries.
