Greenworks 610 CFM Blower BPB80L00

Particularly in an age of battery power, a number of outdoor power equipment manufacturers have sprung up. And, based on performance and how quickly each company has established itself, many of them are real competitors. Greenworks is one of them. Founded in 2002, they’ve come a long way in a comparatively short period. Indeed, their timeline is interesting. They released 20V equipment in 2007, 40V in 2012, and products within the 80V range starting in 2015. This is undeniably rapid progress, which has led to tools like the Greenworks 610 CFM Backpack Blower (BPB80L00).

In fact, this model landed on our Best Backpack Leaf Blower Reviews list. Here’s a look at why.

Greenworks 610 CFM Backpack Blower Performance Features

Before we get into performance and design specifics, we should explore the heart of this tool. Driving the BPB80L00 is a brushless motor and an 80V (2.5Ah) lithium-ion battery (GBA80250). This pack has been around for a few years now (first available in 2019), and it has some benefits in itself. For example, using the rapid charger, you can have it back to a full charge in one hour, which reduces downtime.

But, perhaps most important is the power that it delivers.

Installed on this Greenworks backpack blower, the GBA80250 fuels a blowing force of 180 mph and 610 CFM. Nearly every high-CFM blower we’ve worked with (generally about 500 CFM and up) has demonstrated efficient performance in terms of volume. As such, this unit will significantly cut down on work time.

And, when you combine that with small, but nonetheless useful, features like a variable speed trigger and cruise control, the BPB80L00 is a solid solution for home and light commercial usage.

Greenworks 610 CFM Backpack Blower Performance

As we outline in our best backpack blower reviews list, the BPB80L00 has several stand-out design features. The Greenworks 80V 610 CFM Backpack Blower is light–roughly 12 pounds with the battery. When you look at competing battery-powered backpack blowers, you’ll see weights upwards of 30 pounds.

To provide some context, that’s like giving a 3-year-old a piggyback ride. Meanwhile, the Greenworks blower weighs about as much as a big newborn. Not bad, particularly considering the power that you get out of this thing.

Besides the weight, something else we think is low is the price. Indeed, the BPB80L00’s tag is reasonable when you take into account the design and performance.

Greenworks BPB80L00 Price

The Greenworks 610 CFM Backpack Blower retails for $202.58 bare. For the battery (GBA80250) and rapid charger (B00SSBKZYY), add $176.99 and $61.19 respectively.
