Description
Overview of the Milwaukee 3009-24HD
- Power: The Milwaukee 3009-24HD can expel 650 cubic feet of air per minute (CFM) from its nozzle at a maximum speed of 155 MPH.
- Power delivery: Designed with a brushless motor, the 3009-24HD by Milwaukee ensures cordless operation, providing users with the flexibility to tackle outdoor tasks without the constraints of cords. Milwaukee claims that this unit delivers power of a 60cc gas backpack blower.
- Battery: The Milwaukee 3009-24HD is powered by a minimum of two 18V Li-ion batteries, yielding a total of 36V. Since the unit comes with four 12 Ah batteries, you can decide to run it on either 2 or 4 of them, which allows you to adjust the configuration for either lighter weight in quicker clean-ups or more runtime in extended clearing applications. When the 4 included batteries are used, power from the additional 2 batteries is used to extend the 3009-24HD's autonomy, providing up to 60 minutes of runtime.
- Handling: As this unit is a backpack leaf blower, the majority of the unit is distributed so that the user can operate it with ease for most reasonable periods of use. Its throttle is located on the tube, which allows you to keep your left hand free. Be aware that, at 32.1 lbs (with the 4 included batteries), the Milwaukee 3009-24HD is on the heavier side of cordless backpack blowers.
- Speed Settings: The Milwaukee 3009-24HD offers customizable airflow through its variable speed settings, along with integrated cruise control for convenient operation.
- Additional power control modes: In addition to the variable speed trigger, the unit provides even more control over power and battery life, by allowing the user to choose between 3 different power modes.
- Noise: With a decibel rating of 62 dB, the 3009-24HD is neither louder nor quieter than its rivals in the cordless backpack category.

The Milwaukee 3009-24HD's performance versus other blowers
The following charts are provided to give you an idea how the key specs of the Milwaukee 3009-24HD compare with other cordless backpack leaf blowers.
- Upon exiting the nozzle, the air can reach speeds of up to 155 MPH, which is on the lower end for battery-operated backpack blowers. For the fastest air speed in this category, you may want to consider the Stihl BRA 600, which can expell air at a velocity that can reach 246 MPH.
- The Milwaukee 3009-24HD boasts an airflow rate of 650 CFM (cubic feet per minute), which is standard for cordless backpack blowers. If air volume is important to you, the EGO LBPX1100, with 1100 CFM, could be in your good books.
