Description
Zoom on the Greenworks 24252
With its cordless handheld design, the Greenworks 24252 is appropriate for homeowners with smaller home areas like patios, walkways, or compact front and back lawns under a quarter acre.
It provides a maximum air volume rating of 135 cubic feet per minute (CFM) and an air speed of up to 150 miles per hour (MPH). In practice, it can shift small amounts of leaves and light debris on yard sections, patios, or walkways.
Featuring a 40V brushed motor, the unit provides cordless operation, allowing you to operate with great mobility. A 2.0Ah battery is included, giving up to 15 minutes of runtime on a full charge.
Thanks to its variable speed settings, the Greenworks 24252 allows precise control of the air output.
With a bare tool weight of 3.4 lbs and 5.2 lbs with the battery, this handheld unit can be guided with one hand to direct airflow where needed.
The Greenworks 24252's performance versus other blowers
The following charts are provided to give you an idea how the key specs of the Greenworks 24252 compare with handheld leaf blowers of similar voltage (between 36 and 48V).
- In its category of cordless handheld blowers in the 36 to 48V range, the Greenworks 24252 stands out for its lighter bare tool build at only 3.4 lbs. Should weight be a deciding factor, the Black+Decker LSW40C is worth a look at just 2.4 lbs the bare tool.
- The Greenworks 24252 expels air at speeds up to 150 MPH, showcasing typical air speed performance for battery-operated handheld blowers between 36 and 48V. If you wish to benefit from air expelled at the fastest possible speed, the Husqvarna 350iB and its 200 MPH could be an option to consider.
- Its max air volume rating (135 cubic feet per minute) means it is really not the biggest air producer of cordless handheld blowers with a comparable voltage. For the highest air volume, you may want to have a look at the Ryobi RY40HPLB01K, which boasts with 800 CFM.
- Autonomy-wise, with up to 15 minutes of autonomy on a full charge, the 24252 is on the low end when compared with other cordless handheld units of similar voltage. To enjoy the best possible autonomy in this category, you could have a look at the Stihl BGA 200 which offers up to 535 minutes of runtime.
- While runtime is an important metric, it is closely tied to battery capacity. To understand performance more clearly, it’s also useful to look at runtime efficiency, how long the unit runs relative to its battery size. With its current setup, the Greenworks 24252 offers a lower level of runtime efficiency compared to the other compared battery-powered handheld models. If you are focused on getting more use per charge, the Stihl BGA 50 offers the highest runtime efficiency, at 0.8 minutes per Wh.
Price comparison
As you can see from these interactive charts, when compared to other 36-48V cordless blowers, the Greenworks 24252 is on the cheap side of the price range.
It can therefore be a really good buy if you're looking to acquire a budget blower.
