DeWalt 20V Jobsite Blowers: The DCE100 and Battery-Compatible Picks

Best for
New users wanting a complete DeWalt kit

Best for
Existing DeWalt owners cleaning PCs and desks

The DEWALT 20V MAX Blower is the DCE100B, the bare-tool version of DeWalt’s compact jobsite blower. The listing rates it at 100 CFM of airflow and 135 MPH of air speed, and it weighs just 2.5 pounds at 12.6 x 5.7 x 7.85 inches. That footprint is the reason it suits a gaming setup so well: it fits on a shelf, points easily into a mid-tower case, and has enough push to clear fan blades and radiator fins without the brute force of a full leaf blower.

Control is its other strength. A 3-speed switch sets the range, a variable speed trigger lets you feather the power in use, and a trigger lock-on reduces fatigue when you are clearing a long workbench or garage corner. DeWalt includes three nozzle attachments and lists uses such as tuck pointing, cleaning joints and clearing debris from the ground or overhead. It is a bare tool, so you need a DeWalt 20V MAX battery and charger. If you want more context on buying bare, our guide to the DeWalt blower as a tool only walks through what that means.

• 100 CFM airflow and 135 MPH max speed
• 3-speed switch plus variable speed trigger
• Trigger lock-on for less hand fatigue
• Three nozzle attachments included

Buyers without batteries wanting light airflow

Best for
Blowing and vacuuming with one tool

The Cordless Leaf Blower for Dewalt 20V is a third-party tool built to run on DeWalt 20V MAX batteries; the listing states clearly that it is not a DeWalt blower and ships without a battery. What sets it apart is the 2-in-1 design: it switches between blower and vacuum, and comes with a flexible pipe, dust collection bag, small and large suction nozzles, an extension tube, two general tubes and an inflation nozzle.

The listing names a brushless motor spinning up to 18,000 RPM and six speeds from 70 MPH up to 180 MPH, which gives it a wider range than the DeWalt DCE100. It also adds low-voltage and over-current protection that powers the tool off before your battery drains too far. The listing does not specify a CFM figure, so a direct airflow comparison is not possible. It weighs 1.67 kg, which is roughly 3.7 pounds. This one suits the reader who wants a single tool for blowing out a car interior, vacuuming pet hair off a desk mat and inflating a camping mattress, more than someone who only needs a focused jet of air.

• Blower and vacuum in one tool with collection bag
• Six speeds from 70 to 180 MPH
• Brushless motor up to 18,000 RPM
• Low-voltage and over-current protection

The DEWALT 20V MAX Blower for Jobsite is the DCE100M1 kit. It uses the same compact blower as the DCE100B, with 100 CFM of airflow, 135 MPH air speed, a 3-speed switch, variable speed trigger and trigger lock-on, but adds a 20V MAX 4Ah lithium-ion battery and a charger. DeWalt’s description also mentions three attachments in the box.

The listed weight rises to 3.31 pounds and the product dimensions to 15.8 x 6 x 8.1 inches, which reflects the kit with battery rather than the tool alone. This is the right pick for a reader who does not own any DeWalt 20V gear yet and wants a genuine DeWalt blower that works out of the box. If you already have packs from a drill or impact driver, the DCE100B does the same job and the kit gives way to it. Once you are on the platform, a battery like this also powers accessories such as a DeWalt 20V fan for a hot game room or garage.

• 20V MAX 4Ah battery and charger included
• 100 CFM airflow and 135 MPH air speed
• Variable speed trigger and 3-speed switch
• Compact design for tight spaces

Best for
Yard debris with batteries you own

The 700 CFM Leaf Blower Compatible is a third-party bare tool made to lock onto DeWalt 20V MAX batteries. Its headline numbers are 700 CFM and 200 MPH, the highest air speed rating in this group, driven by what the listing calls a pure copper motor. It is marketed at wet leaves, packed yard debris, driveway dirt, standing water on a pool deck and sawdust in a workshop.

At 4.2 pounds and 17.5 x 10.5 x 6 inches, it is bigger than the DeWalt DCE100 but still a handheld. A throttle lock is listed, and the brand backs it with a 1-year warranty. This is the reader who owns DeWalt batteries and wants to do real yard work. It is not the tool for blowing out a graphics card; at this airflow you risk spinning fans past their limits, and the compact DeWalt is a better choice indoors.

• 700 CFM airflow and 200 MPH max speed
• Throttle lock
• 4.2 pound bare tool weight
• 1-year manufacturer warranty

Best for
Driveways and patios on DeWalt packs

The 600CFM Brushless Leaf Blower Compatible is a third-party bare tool for DeWalt 20V MAX packs such as DCB200, DCB203, DCB205, DCB230 and DCB240. It uses a brushless motor and a honeycomb turbine with a turbo boost mode, rated at up to 600 CFM and 125 MPH. The listing itself notes that performance figures come from lab testing at optimal charge.

Runtime is the most detailed spec here: with a 4.0Ah pack the listing claims up to 30 minutes in standard mode or 12 minutes in turbo. It adds a variable trigger with speed lock, an ambidextrous sliding lock-on, a non-slip rubber grip and a reinforced nylon housing. At 6 pounds it is the heaviest blower in this article. It suits a reader clearing a driveway, patio or half-acre lot on DeWalt packs, and gives way to the DCE100 for anything on a desk.

• 600 CFM with turbo boost, 125 MPH
• Brushless motor with listed runtime figures
• Variable trigger with speed lock
• Reinforced nylon housing, extension nozzle included
