We recently invested in new yard tools. The area I'm in has changed over to "electric only", and I was wary because I didn't figure that a battery pack run tool could be worth a fuck. We have a blower (for yard clippings and fluffy snow removal), mower, and weed whacker.

The big selling point of the tools is the batteries are not only very strong, but interchangeable between all tools. The mower battery, on its own, is enough to mow my front and back yard, weed eat the edges, and then blow it all out, with charge to spare. They all have some good power behind them as well, I never miss a gas powered motor using these. On top of it all, the batteries charge within 2 hours using the basic charger. A speed charger can be bought that does it in 15-30 minutes.

Yes, they're expensive, but they're well worth it. No gas, no spark plugs, just plug in a battery and go.

man, really makes me want that Dewalt weed whacker I've been eyeballing. this yard is untenable, I've been pulling crab grass by hand and with a 3" wide hoe. Thats how i've been maintaining the whole yard, and none of the yard tools I have are mine. The neighbor has been very sweet in letting me borrow shovels, rakes etc. I want deWalt because I already have alot of power tools and charging stations for them. Drills just suck at yard work.

Soon I'll be moving out of here into a place i will be given complete stewardship over that will be in the 5B hardiness zone which means temps will get as low as -10 degrees, i'll have to invest in snow removing equipment probably. never lived in a place that got considerable snow.
