Battery Platforms

The Greenworks platforms: four battery families wearing one brand

The most complete spec sheets in the category, the fastest published charging, the longest battery warranty -- and four incompatible voltages to get wrong.

Battery charger station in a garage

We have not tested these units. Every spec on this page comes from the manufacturer's own documentation and is linked to it. Every computed figure is arithmetic you can redo. Prices are checked daily — last verified January 1, 1970. Here is exactly how we pick.

Greenworks is the most frustrating brand in this category to recommend, because on almost every measure of transparency it is the best one here — and its product structure contains the single most expensive trap in cordless yard tools.

The trap, stated first

Greenworks sells 24V, 40V, 60V and 80V outdoor tools as four separate battery families. They do not interchange and there is no adapter. "Buying Greenworks" commits you to nothing; buying Greenworks 80V commits you completely. Check the voltage on every box.

Our own registry demonstrates it in miniature. Five Greenworks tools, three incompatible voltage lines.

ToolVoltage lineEnergy in the kitShares packs with
LM2108S 21 in self-propelled mower80V320Wh (4.0Ah)The 80V blower and trimmer
730 CFM axial blower80V200Wh (2.5Ah)The 80V mower and trimmer

3000 PSI pressure washer60VTool onlyNothing else in our registry
LM2054 20 in push mower40V160Wh (4.0Ah)Nothing else in our registry

From Greenworks' own product pages, checked 3 September 2026. Greenworks sells more tools per line than we hold cited specs for.

Reading that table the right way: a buyer on Greenworks 80V gets three tools on one pack. A buyer who picks the 40V mower and later the 60V pressure washer has bought into three platforms and owns three chargers. The full compatibility rules are in our compatibility guide.

Where Greenworks is genuinely the best in the category

Once you are inside a voltage, the brand does something no competitor does: it tells you what the machine is.

The fastest published charging in our registry

The arithmetic — Charger rates, watt-hours per minute
Greenworks 80V mower: 320Wh / 40 min = 8.0Wh per minute
Greenworks 80V blower: 200Wh / 40 min = 5.0Wh per minute
Greenworks 80V trimmer: 160Wh / 30 min = 5.3Wh per minute
Greenworks 40V push mower: 160Wh / 120 min = 1.3Wh per minute
Toro, for comparison: 324Wh / 150 min = 2.2Wh per minute
The 80V chargers are 2.3 to 3.6x Toro's rate.
The 40V charger is slower than Toro's.

That last line is the honest caveat. Fast charging is an 80V feature, not a Greenworks feature. The 40V push mower's 120-minute recharge is three times the 80V mower's, on a pack half the size.

The four-year battery term

On the component that actually ends a cordless tool's life, Greenworks warrants longer than anyone else we track.

LM2108S (80V mower)4 years4 years
80V 730 CFM blower4 years4 years

EGO, for comparison5 years3 years

From the manufacturers' own product pages, checked 3 September 2026. The full cross-brand comparison is in warranty comparison.

Note the trimmer row: three years on the tool and four on the battery, which is the reverse of the usual shape and unusually generous on the expensive part.

Where it is weak

  • Kit packs sized to the claim. The 80V mower ships 320Wh, claims 33 minutes and is rated to half an acre. Those three only reconcile with a second battery.
  • The highest published draw of any mower we hold. 9.7 watt-hours a minute on the LM2108S, against 4.0 on the 40V push mower.
  • 75 lb. The heaviest published mower weight in our registry, and Greenworks is the brand honest enough to print it.
  • No noise figure on the blower. The 730 CFM 80V publishes none, where Ryobi publishes 57 dB at the same airflow.
  • Four voltages. Everything above assumes you stayed on one.

What we cannot tell you

We have run none of it. Whether the 40-minute recharge claim holds in cold weather, how the 4-in-1 deck compares in practice with EGO's swappable blades, and how service works at year four are outside what a spec sheet answers.

What is settled: the best-documented machines in the category, the fastest published charging on one of its four lines, the longest battery warranty, and a brand structure that punishes anyone who does not read the voltage.

The only mower here that publishes motor wattage, blade RPM, weight and an acreage rating -- and the only one whose battery warranty matches its tool warranty.

Our arithmetic — Nameplate watt-hours
320Wh

80V x 4.0Ah = 320Wh, using Greenworks' advertised pack voltage.

What the numbers favor

  • 4-year battery warranty -- a year longer than EGO's 3-year, on the component that fails first
  • Publishes blade RPM, weight and acreage rating; the other two brands publish none of the three
  • 40-minute recharge on the included charger, the fastest published here
  • 4-in-1 deck adds turbo leaf pickup on top of mulch, bag and side discharge

What they don't

  • 320Wh included, the least of the three flagships -- and the 33-minute runtime claim reflects that
  • 75 lb is the only published weight here, and it is not light
Skip this one if

you want one battery to finish a half-acre without a swap. Greenworks rates the mower for 1/2 acre but claims only 33 minutes on the included pack; those two numbers only reconcile if you buy a second battery.

40 minutes on a 160Wh pack and 57.5 lb to push -- the honest answer for a third of an acre and nothing more.

Our arithmetic — Nameplate watt-hours
160Wh

40V x 4.0Ah = 160Wh. Note it claims 40 minutes on 160Wh where the 80V flagship claims 33 minutes on 320Wh -- a 20 in deck and no self-propel drive motor is why.

What the numbers favor

  • Lightest published weight on this page at 57.5 lb, and the only sub-60 lb mower here
  • Claims 40 minutes from 160Wh -- the best published minutes-per-watt-hour of any mower on this page
  • Same 3200 RPM blade speed as the 80V flagship
  • 4-in-1 deck at the entry price

What they don't

  • Push only -- no drive assist on any slope
  • 1.2 in minimum cut height is lower than most cool-season lawns should ever be cut
  • 120-minute recharge, three times the 80V model's 40 minutes
Skip this one if

your lawn is over a third of an acre or has any real slope. Greenworks rates it to 1/3 acre and you will be pushing all 57.5 lb of it up the hill yourself.

Our arithmetic — Nameplate watt-hours
200Wh

80V x 2.5Ah = 200Wh, using Greenworks' advertised pack voltage.

What the numbers favor

  • 730 CFM from 5.5 lb -- the best published airflow-per-pound on this page
  • 4-year warranty on tool and battery
  • 40-minute recharge
  • Cruise control and turbo button, so it is not a dead-man trigger for long sessions

What they don't

  • 170 MPH is the lowest peak air speed here -- airflow moves volume, speed dislodges wet debris
  • Greenworks publishes no noise figure for this tool at all
  • 200Wh included is the smallest pack of the blowers here
Skip this one if

you own nothing else on Greenworks 80V. A 200Wh pack bought for one blower is an expensive way to start a platform.

160Wh

80V x 2.0Ah = 160Wh. 45 minutes from 160Wh is about 3.6Wh per minute, matching the Ryobi almost exactly despite half the pack size.

What the numbers favor

  • 7.1 lb bare, the lightest published trimmer weight here
  • 30-minute recharge, the fastest on this page
  • 4-year battery warranty
  • Publishes motor RPM, which neither EGO nor Ryobi does for their trimmers

What they don't

  • 0.080 in line is the lightest gauge here -- it will break more often in heavy weeds
  • 160Wh included is a small pack for an 80V platform
  • Bump feed, not automatic reload
Skip this one if

you cut heavy brush or thick weed stems. 0.080 in line is a lawn-edge gauge, not a bramble gauge.

  • Highest published pressure of the two washers here, by nearly 1000 PSI
  • No cord -- works anywhere on the property
  • Eco mode is published with real numbers (2200 PSI / 1.0 GPM), not just a label
  • Shares the Greenworks 60V pack with the rest of that platform

What they don't

  • 30 minutes of published runtime against a corded washer's unlimited
  • Greenworks publishes several 60V washers at different pressures; check the SKU matches the PSI you are paying for
Skip this one if

you wash a driveway twice a year within reach of an outlet. You would be buying 60V packs to solve a problem an extension cord already solves.

Common questions

Are Greenworks batteries interchangeable?
Within a voltage, yes. Across voltages, no. Greenworks runs 24V, 40V, 60V and 80V as four separate platforms with no cross-compatibility and no adapter, so a Greenworks 80V mower pack will not run a Greenworks 40V mower.
Which Greenworks voltage should I buy?
Pick the one that covers every tool you expect to own and then never leave it. In our registry, 80V carries the flagship mower, the 730 CFM blower and the 16 in trimmer -- the widest single-voltage coverage. The 60V pressure washer and 40V push mower sit on different lines.
Does Greenworks publish better specs than other brands?
Yes, measurably. Greenworks is the only brand in our registry publishing blade RPM, weight, acreage rating, recharge time and warranty on its mowers -- five figures that EGO, Ryobi, Toro and Kobalt variously leave out.
How fast do Greenworks batteries charge?
The fastest published rates we hold. The 80V mower charger is published at 40 minutes for a 320Wh pack (8.0 watt-hours a minute) and the 80V trimmer charger at 30 minutes for a 160Wh pack (5.3 Wh/min). Toro publishes 150 minutes for 324Wh.
What is the Greenworks battery warranty?
Four years on the 80V line for both tool and battery, and four years on the 80V blower. The 40V push mower is published at three years on both. A four-year battery term is the longest in our registry.
What is the biggest mistake buyers make with Greenworks?
Buying two tools from two different Greenworks voltages. It reads as one brand and behaves as two platforms -- two pack inventories, two chargers, no sharing. Check the voltage on every box, every time.
