You're going to quickly be wishing you had a bigger battery for the leaf blower. I have this one with a 5aH battery, and unless the leaves are completely dry I need to run it on high or turbo setting and quickly drain the battery.
Great tool if you already have another battery or an EXTREMELY small yard but otherwise, be aware that ego batteries are quite expensive and you'll more than likely need another one
I've heard good things about the EGO brand for lawn mowers. I was looking for a less expensive model that isn't self propelled, but that model doesn't seem to have a sale.

I have the ego self propelled lawn mower. It is a heavy equipment to handle.
I've got that string trimmer and that 615cfm blower.
The string reload feature is a game changer. No more having to disassemble the head to wind up new string. The power it has is also great.
The leaf blower is awesome for that price. The ability to turn a knob and having it stay on constant at the speed u choose, is a good feature for lifting the blower over your head to clean yourself off from any debris (lol). The blower def packs a punch, especially when you hit the turbo button.

This mower is also a steel deck. It's a good deal if it's important to you. Personally I'd rather have the weight savings and get a plastic one.

I agree about the battery life with the 2.5 Ah battery - it worked fine in the summer, but for the fall leaves, it didn't last without charging halfway through

It's not that heavy! I have to pick mine up every time I use it (to move it in the garage) and it's like 70 pounds. Compare that to my gas mower and the Ego is significantly lighter. Pushing the Ego mower in your grass is a breeze, too, thanks to wheels that roll smoothly.
... But if you have inclines in your yard, I would absolutely recommend the self-propelled version to reduce fatigue.

what would you say the run time is with the smaller battery? TIA
I bought an open box one last week. This thing is just as powerful as my Ryobi backpack gas blower. Sure it doesn't have a long run time at full blast, but definitely good enough for my needs.

I used to own the blower, trimmer, edger and lawn mower with 5 batteries. two 2,5A, two 5.0A and one 7.0A, all are dead after 3 years of use except the 7.0A, I reverse to gas as the batteries are very expensive to replace (but they are really good), I will buy ONE 5.0A battery to use them here and there or early in the morning hour not to disturb the neighbor..
