Black & Decker 18-volt Cordless Blower

[fission7x]

Just thought I'd share this...
I've been looking for a cordless blower for the pool deck.
I finally purchased a Black and Decker 18-volt blower the other day from a
Black and Decker Store at the so-called outlet shops. It is a "refurbished"
model that came with 2 batteries and a charger. It's great for hard surface
blowing, which makes it great to blow off the pool deck! The model number is
NS118R (I assume the "R" stands for refurbished). Price was 54.99 plus tax.
Most places online are selling the non-refurbished version for around $75 to $80 bucks.
Here's a pic (thanks amazon!)

At least it would just kill the blower!
The corded version of the blower would kill anything in the pool if I dropped it!! :D

when we got this item a few years ago, i read many reviews that said it wears out very quickly. that has NOT been our experience. we've been using it for three years now, and still going strong. a great purchase, highly recommended.
