Cordless versus Corded

I tried some Spring clean up tasks side-by-side with my corded, Toro electric model for comparison; blowing leaves off of the lawn and out of the garden beds, etc. The blowers appear roughly similar in overall length.  The BL300 felt slightly heavier and weighed 2# 9 oz heavier (with 4.0 Ahr battery).

The Toro had noticeably more cleaning power, aside from any CFM or MPH ratings.  It just moved the leaves much better.  I never ran out of power with the cord. My thoughts were that I would prefer the Toro for large tasks, such as clearing leaves from the lawn, and for high power tasks, like blasting leaves from the garden. And I would prefer the BL300 for shorter, lower power demand, convenience tasks, where running an extension cord might discourage me from even pulling out the blower.
