battery powered is just electric with out the extension cords and idk the stuff i got seems fine
i got cordless tools that use batteries ive had this lawn mower for probably 7 years now its just technology man
its so much nicer being able to plug your shit in and its ready to go for next time the amount of times i had to go to the gas station because i had none for it or it ran out half way through....yeah pass
i do have a self propelled gas mower too but i mostly use the electric tbh


i had a battery powered leaf blower. the thing was dog shit

Eh. It's not that simple to be honest.

Amp hours >

Alot of the battery tools nowadays can outperform gas counterparts. Albeit limited by time because of battery. But these tools arnt meant for hr+ jobs.

Can get a blower that is still 790cfm and 230mph (peak) wind with a battery that lasts 90mins.

i mean it is that simple, I would rather have the 120v version of the tool because I don't need to worry about dog shit quality and cheap batteries

just plug it in and it gets the same output all day

hope that helps with context

I bought a $40 black and decker with 100ft extension cable off a guy on kijiji - it shreds those massive blades of grass like nothing


mower is at least 10 years old and used when I bought it a few years ago, still spins like it should
