    …is this not just a muffler/silencer for leaf blowers? Good on these kids! This definitely falls under the ‘why didn’t I think of that!’ category for me.

        Good job not reading any part of the article and confidently announcing your completely incorrect take on things to everyone.

            And since electric leaf blowers often have a much higher pitch, that pitch attenuates at a much greater rate

            As the article states, it’s this sound that they got rid of. A 94% drop in the high pitched shrill of the electric leaf blower.

            Read. The. Article.

            It’s a 2 minute read ffs.
