Greenworks 24V

I had bought this last year, but did not have a chance to use it, as I had bought it to Blow snow. I have used it finally the last week, and it works amazing. I do use the turbo boost most of the time but it handles the snow we have gotten very well. I have about 300 feet of sidewalk I can do at one time (if it is less than 1" deep) as the battery only lasts for 15 minutes, using the turbo. When the snow was 2" deep I had to do it in 2 sessions. It takes about 30 - 40 minutes to charge, giving me time to also recharge and warm up. I also love that it is light enough weight that I can use it, but powerful enough it does a wonderful job, and so much easier, a takes less time than shoveling. I am not sure how well it will do when we get heavier wet snow.

Easy to assemble right out of the box, just follow the instructions closely, not that much to do. Once assembled, I waited for a decent weather day in February here in Michigan to test it out. I already had two 80V 4ah batteries from my Greenworks power mower I recently purchased, that’s why I ordered the tool only. I had an area on my property I didn’t get to during fall cleanup (using my old gas powered backpack blower) so was anxious to test it out during a mild 50 degree February day on 2/12/23. I inserted a battery and WOW, was so impressed from the moment I squeezed the trigger. It is very powerful. I am very pleased with its performance, even to blow stubborn leaves embedded in ground cover as you can see in my video. I hardly even needed to use the turbo function but did at times for testing purposes. It’s lighter than my old gas backpack blower and also more comfortable to wear. I operated it around 30 minutes total with/without turbo, mostly without because it’s powerful enough without, but there will be times to utilize turbo and you will know when. I highly recommend it if you want a great, powerful blower that doesn’t require gas/oil, spark plug, air filter, etc. It actually exceeded my already high expectations! I’m a 73 year old man with some mobility issues so appreciate the advantages of this particular blower. Love it! I’m glad I already have the two 4ah batteries to take advantage of purchasing just the blower. It’s always nice to have a spare battery.

Works great!

I like to blow but the battery to fast to drain

I had the 80v snowblower and started looking for leaf blowers and settled on this one. I'm impressed by the power but this is not at the same level as the normal gas blowers that I've used. It's about the same level as a mid level hand blower (better than the cheap less powerful ones). It works for everything I need it to do. The backpack part really isn't necessary since it's not THAT heavy but it is nice to only have to move the tube with your hand to blow leaves around and not the whole unit like normal.The only downsides are the battery life and a strange hiccup now and again. I can do snowblowing for a long time but this eats up energy fast even without the super power button. There's also time and again where the motor starts to spin up and then stops and I have to wait for a few seconds and then try again. It works fine otherwise so it's mostly just annoying.Overall I would buy again as it works well for my needs (I don't need the long run times so bad) and I technically could upgrade to a 4Ah battery for longer runs (for $200+...ouch). If I didn't already have the 80v battery system I probably would have looked around more.Not dealing with 2 stroke gas engines (aka gas mixing and hard starts) is so much better.
