I've been using a battery operated Black & Decker leaf blower. It has good blowing force and isn't very load. Works great for me. and it's a lot easier to handle than a vacuum & hose.

You need to remove the internal foam disk for blowing, but even so, it gets quite hot.

I like the plastic housing( won't ding) is lighter and does the job. I still use my Metro in the shop , and car. Should be $165 online.
