Blower mod when using BH1001 Power+ Backpack

I have purchased just about every tool required to properly maintain a well-manicured lawn and landscaping, all of them EGO. The last three years I’ve contracted for maintenance as I had a shoulder replaced and carpal tunnel, surgery on both wrists. Recently I decided to blow leaves with my LB6000 leaf blower but couldn’t as it was too difficult to put on (sad!!!). I decided to purchase a EGO BH1001Power+ Backpack and a LB7654, 765cfm leaf blower to see if it would work. I used the backpack with a 10Ah EGO battery and was able to put it on without any problem at all. Handling, using the blower was a different story. It was difficult to control/balance with one hand. Candidly, I was disappointed. Determined to make it work, I came up with a $20 idea that could be installed in 30 seconds with no physical modification to the blower. I was able to easily blow leaves for several hours - I have 2, 10Ah batteries and one 12Ah battery. I’m including a photo of my idea and feel free to use it at no cost should you think it can help. Now to be honest, if you really like the idea, you can give me a LB8803 leaf blower when they become available. I would have purchased one of them if available for sale at the time … :)) That said, I think EGO manufactures high quality, great products and would never by any other brand. This coming from someone who only bought Stihl equipment in the past. Thank you for your time, Curt I'm not sure this will let me include a photo... :((
