Same, for me it is about having a choice. One size simply doesn't fit all, especially out in the country where nobody has postage stamp sized yards. I have some small engine customers that kept their gas mower, but went to battery for their smaller tools and it has worked perfectly for them. They have small yards, and are getting older so mixing gas is more annoying for them.I cannot get too far into it as there are many different ways to look at this. I will admit my admiration to small engines and 2 strokes in general I can agree battery makes a ton of sense for some people. I have friends that have no business owning 2 stroke or any gas powered yard tools, but I cannot rest knowing the all the retailers / big govmnt are clearing the shelves and jamming this new e - waste down our throats. I want a choice.
I maintain 3 acres, there is no way electric equipment will do that without being extremely expensive and a pain to deal with. My grandfather has 25 acres to maintain.
