Bought it for tailgating and also hurricane prep / power outages. Provides up to 650 CFM. Also bought 2 6.0Ah batteries. Just turned it on out on the patio to see how long it will run on high. Better be a while for the price of the batteries.

Yup ordered it as soon as they began accepting orders for the new X7.

We just traded in an X5 - was an awesome car.

I'm surprised that color isn't a charge upgrade. Very nice.

5.5 hours on high the whole time. Not bad.

The newer batteries are impressive. I have two 40v Ryobis (4Ah and 6Ah). The 4Ah let me run my weed whacker, brush cutter, and leaf blower for an hour combined. Screw gas powered stuff and extension cords when you can work cord and fume free.

Yep. I have an EGO+ blower (56v battery) that is excellent and will run for longer than I ever need it to run. Only downsides are price and it is a little heavy. But manageable and a lot better than dragging an extension cord around and occasionally pulling it out of the plug for a lower powered blower. I’ll take that trade off.
