Greenworks 40V Backpack Leaf Blower - 710 CFM, Dual 8.0Ah Batteries, Turbo & Variable Speed

The Greenworks 40V Backpack Leaf Blower is a cordless, high‑airflow yard blower delivering up to 710 CFM and 175 MPH, powered by two 8.0 Ah batteries for extended run time.

This lightweight backpack blower combines the convenience of a battery platform with gas‑comparable performance, making yard cleanup faster and less messy. It belongs to the Greenworks 40V system, which powers over 40 outdoor tools using fade‑free lithium‑ion batteries. With a medium‑weight chassis, variable speed controls, and cruise control, the blower is built for homeowners who want reliable, low‑maintenance power without fumes or pull starts. The included dual‑port setup and charger give you extended runtime for larger jobs up to roughly one‑third acre properties.

How powerful is this blower for moving wet leaves and heavy debris?

The blower produces up to 710 CFM of airflow and reaches 175 MPH, which is strong enough to clear wet leaves, grass clippings, and small twigs from patios, driveways, and lawns. A turbo button provides short bursts of extra power for stubborn piles.

• Peak airflow: 710 CFM for wide, fast clearing
• Maximum velocity: 175 MPH to dislodge compacted debris
• Turbo boost for short high‑power demands
• Variable speed dial for matching power to the task

How long will the batteries run, and can I extend runtime?

The kit includes two 8.0 Ah 40V batteries and a charger; using one battery provides typical runtime for small jobs while the dual‑port design lets you swap or connect batteries to double effective working time. Run time varies by speed setting and the amount of debris, but the dual battery approach significantly reduces interruptions for recharging.

• Includes (2) 8.0 Ah 40V batteries for extended sessions
• Dual port lets you alternate or extend runtime by up to ~100%
• Onboard charger recharges batteries between tasks
• Fade‑free lithium‑ion chemistry maintains consistent power

Is the backpack design comfortable for long yard jobs?

The blower’s backpack configuration spreads weight across the shoulders and hips to reduce arm fatigue, and medium‑weight construction keeps the overall package lighter than comparable gas units. Adjustable straps and a padded harness improve fit and allow you to work longer with less strain.

• Padded harness and adjustable straps for improved comfort
• Balanced chassis design reduces arm and shoulder load
• Quieter operation than gas for less neighborhood disturbance
• No gas or oil — cleaner handling and less maintenance

What controls and features help with precise yard work?

Controls include a variable speed dial, a turbo button for bursts of power, and cruise control to hold a chosen speed without constant trigger pressure. These features let you dial in the right airflow for sidewalks, flowerbeds, or open areas without overworking the batteries.

• Variable speed dial for fine‑tuned airflow
• Turbo button for on‑demand maximum power
• Cruise control for steady output during longer passes
• Simple electric start: instant power with no pull cord

Who is this for? The Greenworks 40V Backpack Leaf Blower is aimed at homeowners with properties up to about one‑third acre, landscaping pros needing a quieter alternative to gas, and anyone who prefers low‑maintenance, cordless equipment. It suits people who value portable power, fast cleanup across hard surfaces and lawns, and predictable battery performance backed by Greenworks’ 40V platform and warranty.
