ENTER THE FALL SEASON WITH A BLAST OF PORTABLE POWER
Charlotte, N.C. – The new Worx® The 80V Nitro Brushless Backpack Leaf Blower is entering its first fall season for quickly and efficiently picking up leaves and other debris from your lawn. This powerful and manoeuvrable cordless blower is a boon to homeowners with larger yards, as well as commercial landscapers managing mid-size properties.
The backpack blower uses in-line turbine fan technology to generate up to 800 CFM of air volume at speeds up to 150 mph to lift and remove dry or wet leaves and debris. Additionally, dual inlets draw air in for increased output volume and blowing power. The Newton rating of the blower is 22N on Turbo mode and 16N on High mode.

Base Camp is a removable power pack that combines four 20V 5.0Ah Power Share PRO batteries to deliver 80 volts of power and performance. This versatile power module drives the blower and charges all four batteries with an included cable. It can also power other WORX 80V tools, like the new WORX Nitro 80V 21-Inch Self-Propelled Lawn Mower.
Each of Base Camp’s easy-to-remove batteries can be used to power over 75 other WORX 20V, 40V or 80V lawn and garden, DIY tools and lifestyle products for cost savings and convenience.
The brushless blower motor is electronically controlled, rather than carbon brushed. Therefore, it transfers power more efficiently, runs cooler and requires no maintenance. Brushless motor provides 50% more run time, 25% more power, and 10% longer life than comparable brushed motors.
Power Share PRO batteries provide enhanced runtime and power protection through an intelligent battery management system with cell cooling technology. Each battery cell is wrapped in thermoplastic to dissipate heat and maximize power and performance.
The backpack blower also features a variable air control nozzle that provides the right amount of air volume and speed to blow leaves over large areas or in tight spaces. Sliding the nozzle forward in volume mode provides high-capacity airflow to round most blades, faster. Sliding the nozzle back to high speed mode concentrates and accelerates the air stream to dislodge wet or embedded leaves. Turbo mode can also be selected by holding down the trigger to add an extra burst to move the most stubborn debris.
