Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Backpack Blower advice requested

I bought a Husky 150bt from Home Depot. I know that isn't the speed you are looking for though.

If you bought 3 cans of their premix, they extended the warranty to 3 years, not sure if they still do it.

I've had it about 5 years now - still starts on the 3rd try just like it did on day 1.

I can't say its better than a Stihl or not, although I do have a Stihl hand carry blower that's been put thru the ringer and keeps on running. I like the Husky because its pretty quiet.

I also have a Ryobi backpack - I can't keep it running but when it does, its a bat out of hell with wind speed. Much more velocity than the comparable Stihl or Husky

I like the reliability of the husky and it was about $150 less than the Stihl. The wife likes it because she can start it and put it on without help.
