Thanks to all for the replies, added a few comments, so read if you have time.
Jon,
Will get back to you in email when you get back in town.
Ron,
You say that you do not need them anymore. You must have some reliable sweeper trucks that come around after you are done.
Mel,
I use them prior to washing to clear the area, so my reclaim does not get clogged up with silt, leaves and trash. Also seems that whenever I wash, the sweeper truck comes around and since I am there, he skips that section since it is wet, so having it done before them and waiting in a pile at the end of the lot makes it easier on both of us. Power of the Billy goat is nice but a little much for my needs. I recall that you do Striping also, so I see your need for it.
Scott,
I did a search for Poulain and it was all french results. Could you give some more info for them?
Oneness,
I checked the specs for the biggest Handheld that Echo has and it is 22.8 cc vs the 56cc I have been using. The MPH is 160 and CFM is 410 compared to the 180 MPH and 518 CFM that I have been using. I do not know how much of a difference it would make, but would hate to spend the cash and then be stuck, since I am spoiled with my current one that is actually a loaner made by STIHL. This thing really moves some dirt. Tank lastsabout an hour and I usually do not blow any longer than that anyway. Weight is less than 20lbs.
