PowerSmart PS76500C 40V string trimmer/edger and leaf-blower combo review

A blower and trimmer share the 40V package

PowerSmart lists the PS76500C as a 40V string-trimmer/edger and leaf-blower combination, with an included 40V 4.0 Ah battery. The attraction is a pair of everyday yard tools on the same battery platform, rather than a blower sold alone. The product page says that pack can power other PowerSmart 40V collection tools. It does not publish a blower runtime, so the 4.0 Ah label is a capacity description, not a promise about how long either tool will work in a particular yard.

The blower is aimed at lighter cleanup

PowerSmart publishes a maximum 310 CFM and 99 MPH for the blower, plus a no-load speed range of 15,750 to 19,250 RPM and a Turbo function said to increase airflow. These are manufacturer claims, not independent clearing tests. A 310-CFM handheld is a plausible fit for short passes on a walkway, patio, deck or small lawn after trimming; it is not the choice to make if a high-airflow threshold is essential for a large volume of damp leaves. That use judgment follows from the published airflow rating, not from a measured yard test.

Do not substitute the manual’s trimmer specifications for the blower’s. PowerSmart’s manual index lists a manual under the PS76500C kit title, but the manual cover identifies model DB2603RB, a 40V string trimmer. Its technical page lists a 13-inch cut, 0.065-inch line, a 4.0 Ah lithium-ion battery, battery model DB2102, charger model DB2202A, a 2.5-hour charge time and a 10.45-pound weight. The listing separately says the trimmer weighs 9 pounds. The weight bases are not reconciled. This manual supplies trimmer context; it does not establish the blower’s weight, motor, speed controls or operating instructions.

Package details deserve a quick check

The product description confirms one 40V 4.0 Ah battery, and the official graphic shows a charger and two replacement-line spools. The text does not explicitly say that a charger or those other displayed accessories are included. A manual reference to DB2202A as the trimmer’s charger is not proof that the combo box contains that charger. If you need a charger in the same purchase, treat that requirement as unresolved until the seller confirms the exact PS76500C package. The same caution applies to runtime: PowerSmart provides no blower runtime claim here.

The package is most compelling for someone who already needs both trimming and modest blowing, especially when keeping one 40V battery system matters more than getting a blower-only kit. The trimmer/edger is described as a 13-inch, 2-in-1 tool with automatic line feed. If a string trimmer would sit unused, the extra tool is not a benefit; this is the wrong package for a buyer who wants only a blower. A second pack is not listed in the page copy, so do not plan on continuous back-and-forth work without a spare or a charging break.

How the finder choices change the fit

Selecting battery power and handheld form matches the blower. Requiring a string trimmer also fits the stated package. A one-battery requirement matches the singular 4.0 Ah pack listed, but asking for two does not. A 300-CFM floor is supported by the published 310-CFM maximum; a 400-CFM minimum is not. Choose “charger included” only if the exact page or retailer confirms it—the image alone is not enough. The blower has no published weight basis or separate blower manual in the indexed kit materials, so a strict ready-to-use weight limit cannot be satisfied from the trimmer’s weight.

For a blower-first purchase, compare the standalone PowerSmart DB2201B: its manufacturer page and manual agree on a 450-CFM maximum, although they conflict on air speed, motor type and charger count. If the job also needs mowing, the separate MB2480C mower-and-blower package is the closer bundle comparison; it carries a higher published blower airflow claim but has its own unresolved package details. The PS76500C’s practical advantage is the trimmer/edger alongside a compact blower, not proof of heavy-leaf performance.

Bottom line

Consider the PS76500C when the included 40V trimmer and the blower are both useful and 310 CFM is enough for the cleanup you expect. Skip it if you require a verified charger in the box, two batteries, a higher airflow minimum, a published blower weight or a blower-only package. Follow the instructions supplied for each tool, wear the protection specified by the manufacturer, and confirm charger contents before checkout.
