I convinced my truck drivin', Trump votin', gun totin', beer swillin' redneck neighbor to switch to an electric mower purely because he was envious of my own electric one and how it just runs when you press the button, without fail and every single time. It was actually kind of hilarious.
All of the above but Trump votin'. My wife is happy to push the electric DeWalt around. First electric mower, scored it new for $199, bought a pair of batteries and a charger. Pretty happy.
Neighbor chunked a very nice looking ICE mower. Going to take it down the street to the retired small-engine guy. He'll probably charge $20 + parts, maybe $40 tops. But now I'm wondering if I can even sell it for a profit. I could haul it to camp for random chopping work, but then I got another gas engine to fuck with. Probably not worth it.
At my job (Lowe's) we sell almost all battery mowers. As cheap as ICE mowers are, not seeing them run out the door nearly as fast. Haven't seen one sold yet, but I'm outside garden.
Anyone got tips on a battery weed eater? Mine's pretty well shot, eats full batteries in minutes. Thinking on trying EGO stuff from Lowe's since I get a discount. Inside lawn and garden expert told me they're the best on the market ATM. ?
I've got a few ego tools and the only one I'm slightly disappointed with is the mower. The outlet design isn't great and can clog up if you mow anything denser than grass.
String trimmer, leaf blower and snow blowers (both single and dual stage) all work great.
