The amount of people I hear discussing their surprise satisfaction with electronic tools is pretty astounding, even coming from electrical engineers and similar. The skepticism and doubt, propaganda from Big Combustion is real 🤠
I was an early adopter of an electric lawnmower, which I regretted. That thing had so little power that I had to mow like every 3 days or it would just push the grass over. I went back to gas after one season. However I went back to electric 5 years ago or so, and it’s FAR better. But for a blower, or weed eater, electric has always been superior.
I’m not sure if it was intentional or if brushless motors are really that much more powerful but electric tools are far better now than they were even just 10 years ago.
Battery pack improvements have to be right up there with why electric have gotten so much better now.
The new tabless batteries in particular are a good step forward even with older tools. And they are last 18 months or less depending on your tool colour of choice.
Really big tools like most landscaping or concrete tools that use the really big batteries (think back pack batteries) have an insane amount of watts they can push out.
I never used petrol tools but I did use mains tools a lot due to the extra power but now 240v is often lower than the top battery tools now.
Titled: Somewhat Verbally Abusive “kill your lawn” Instructional Video Nice
If nothing else it’s hilarious. Its dictated by a man who 100% sounds like he just finished breaking some guys knee caps in the other room before disposing of him from The Boss
(He gets rid of the lawn by cutting the lawn into carpets and flipping them over. He does actually give you information after insulting you for having a lawn)
He’s kinda famous, been around for awhile - his first (original? main?) videos are all about him spreading random seeds in public places, walking around and checking about things he planted “illegally” and generally just fun to watch. :) All the time with his colorful commentary.
It’s incredible how effective salt is. I had a bunch of “used” water softening salt I didn’t want to put back in after cleaning my system, so I spread it over some nuisance bamboo growing under my fence and a rooty bush near my septic line. It’s just sand now.

What year was the weak one purchased?
I don’t remember exactly, but it would have been somewhere around 2010? Black and Decker.

Salt seems like a really good way to destroy your soil so you can’t grow anything else either 😅
