LBD1880 Cordless Blower (Power Unit Only) by AL-KO

solo by AL-KO LBV 3690: Professional 36V Cordless Leaf Vacuum & Blower

The solo by AL-KO LBV 3690 is a premium, mobile solution for maintaining a pristine garden throughout the autumn months. This versatile 2-in-1 tool eliminates the hassle of tangled cables and the maintenance requirements of petrol engines, providing the total freedom to move anywhere on your property. Whether you need to blow leaves into manageable piles or vacuum them for disposal, the LBV 3690 provides professional efficiency in a quiet, eco-friendly package.

Powered by the robust AL-KO 36V Energy Flex battery system, this device delivers serious performance across both functions. Transitioning between blowing and vacuuming is fast and simple thanks to the modular, quick-change tube attachments that click into place without the need for additional tools.

Dual-Function Performance

The LBV 3690 is engineered to handle various types of garden debris, regardless of the weather conditions:

  • Blower Mode: Achieves an impressive air speed of 260 km/h, allowing you to shift even damp or heavy matted leaves with ease.

  • Vacuum Mode: Operates at approximately 150 km/h, providing the suction needed to clear lawns, borders, and gravel paths efficiently.

  • Stepless Speed Adjustment: Features a continuously variable trigger that allows for delicate control in flowerbeds or maximum power in large open areas.

Ergonomics and the Energy Flex System

Designed with user comfort as a priority, the LBV 3690 is ergonomically balanced to ensure comfortable handling during extended maintenance sessions. As a member of the 36V Energy Flex family, this tool utilizes the same interchangeable battery used across the entire range of AL-KO premium machinery. This makes it a highly cost-effective "shell" addition for users who already own other tools in the 36V ecosystem.
