Description
Overview of the Greenworks BL40B411
The Greenworks BL40B411
- Power: The Greenworks BL40B411 is a cordless blower with a maximum air volume rating of 450 cubic feet per minute (CFM) and an air speed of 120 MPH.
- Power delivery: Greenworks designed this battery-operated unit with total mobility in mind. The BL40B411 only needs to be plugged in when it is charging, so users can take it almost anywhere.
- Battery: Its 4 Ah 40 V Li-ion battery (1 BAF704 battery included) means that a user can operate the BL40B411 for an estimated 30 minutes on a full charge. This battery can also act as a power bank, since it features a built-in USB port that will allow you to charge all your portable electronic devices, including phones and tablets.
- Handling: For those who are looking for a portable and convenient leaf blower, this model is a strong candidate. It’s designed for easy handling and use, and its size means it’s easily carried and stored. Be aware that, at 11 lbs, the Greenworks BL40B411 is on the heavier side of cordless handheld blowers.
- Speed Settings: To provide more control over their job to the user, the unit has a variable speed control setting. No matter the size of the job, the user can adjust the airflow of the Greenworks BL40B411 to match it. On top of that, maintaining the selected speed is effortless, as it also features cruise control.

The Greenworks BL40B411's performance versus other blowers
The following charts are provided to give you an idea how the key specs of the Greenworks BL40B411 compare with handheld leaf blowers of similar voltage (between 36 and 48V).
- The air speed of the Greenworks BL40B411 maxes out at 120 MPH. While more than adequate for many jobs, its air speed is below average among other battery-operated handheld blowers between 36 and 48V. For the fastest air speed in this category, you may want to consider the Makita XBU01PT, which can expell air at a velocity that can reach 208 MPH.
- It has a maximum air volume output of 450 CFM (cubic feet per minute). With this output rating, the BL40B411 is well within average in relation to similar cordless handheld blowers with a comparable voltage. If air volume is important to you, the Husqvarna 350iB, with 800 CFM, could be in your good books.
- Autonomy-wise, with up to 30 minutes of autonomy on a full charge, the BL40B411 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 Makita CBU01Z which offers up to 300 minutes of runtime.
The bottom line
- Battery doubles as a power bank
- Cruise control
- Decent CFM (450 CFM)
- Quite heavy (11 lbs)
- Brushed motor
- Low MPH (120 MPH)
- Low autonomy (30 mins)
