That's one of 13 different tool combinations you can get for that price with those two batteries with their current sale. You can pick from the blower, an additional 5.0 amp battery, floodlight, jobsite speaker, circular saw, jigsaw, oscillating tool, router, impact driver, hackzall, grinder, inflator or rapid charger.

While a good deal for those items the blower works much better with the 6,8, &12 ah batteries. I have run this blower with a 5 and the output is diminished.

And you're probably referring to the HO batteries?

Approximately how long is each battery lasting with this blower?

TIA!

Yes, M18 CP3.0 uses the same 21700 cells as the 6,8, & 12 ah (aka "High Output"). The 5ah referenced uses 18650 cells.

Correct, the 3,6,8, & 12 are considered "High Output" - really it's the 21700 cells they are using. This more pertains to actual performance than runtime though.

As far as runtime Milwaukee rates it at 20 minutes on the older HD 9.0 - so roughly 2.2 mins per ah.
5ah would be around 11min and 12ah around 26.6 mins. My experience using it on approx .5 acre property is that 8ah is usually plenty to get the job done unless I have a lot of leaves in the fall. It also depends on outside temperature - when it gets cold (40s and under) runtime degrades moreso than in warmer temps. Think the 21700 cell batteries (I haven't used a HD9.0) provide better performance in this tool.
