Greenworks BPB80L00 Backpack Blower Review
Greenworks BPB80L00 Backpack Blower
As a strong competitor in the gardening devices industry, the BPB80L00 is lightweight, compact, and sturdy. It is cordless and easy to control. The brushless motor technology ensures the device delivers favourably when compared to its gas equivalent.
8 Main Features of the Greenworks BPB80L00
For home-owners and small gardeners, the device is very easy to couple and operate. A single battery charge can last up to thirty minutes of performance. Considering the 145 MPH work capacity of this device, it can clear a lot of debris in very little time. It takes less than 15 minutes to clear my one-plot (120m × 60m) lawn.
It is energy-efficient because the 80V blower can clear debris (both wet and dried leaves) from your garden for up to 145 miles per hour. For clean energy folks, it can be the best choice in the market presently.
We love this device for the following reasons:
1) Design
Something that catches our attention first in the Greenworks backpack blower is how appealing the equipment looks to the eye. It has got good looks and so much more.
It is relatively small and compact. Hence, it can be easily operated by teenagers and older citizens without fear of body ache. Due to its relatively small size, it takes less storage space as compared to similar products of its kind. It is easy to carry along, especially when moving into a new apartment.
2) Ease of Operating
It is straightforward to operate. All you need do is to couple the parts as directed in the users' manual and push the START button. This is way easier than having to go through rigorous processes to make a machine work.
3) Material
One main reason this device is lightweight is the use of highly advanced and strong materials during manufacturing. Weighing only roughly 8 lbs., you can be sure of not getting tired by the weight of the device. This saves you energy and helps you clear your garden in good time.
If you want a more lightweight blower, we suggest you go for handheld blowers instead. However, make sure you know the differences of both these blowers before making a buying decision.
4) Charge versus use time
With the appropriate battery, a thirty minutes charge can give you up to 30 minutes of work time. For a small yard, you may not use up to twenty minutes, considering the device's 140MPH work capacity. However, for a very large space, you may need to recharge once the battery is down.
5) Ventilation requirement
In poorly ventilated yards where some other brands of blowers perform poorly, this device works just fine. You can go on working, having confidence that your work will be done right on schedule.
6) Variable speed trigger



Depending on the nature of debris you are dealing with (wet or dried), the variable speed trigger on the Greenworks backpack blower can be adjusted accordingly. All you need do is set the device to the appropriate speed, and you are good to go.
Wet leaves generally require high speed while dried debris require less. Hence, you can use this device during any season as long as you have debris to clear.
7) Low noise
Just like a high quality handheld blower, operating this device does not create much noise. You can use the tool without disturbing your neighbors.
8) Warranty
For the brand new product, a warranty of up to 4 years is a testimony to the durability of this device. As a home-owner or gardener, you will worry less about frequent maintenance. However, make sure you store them properly after using, this will enhance its life line.
