There are now batteries capable of powering cars and trucks. That technology will eventually be adapted for tools like chainsaws.

I haven't had a gas mower in years.

Battery powered is the way to go for lawn care.

What about those of us who must use a riding mower?

You obviously don't own much land.

California will run out of water long before my lawn mower dies. They're straightening the chairs on the Titanic out there. Fun to watch.

Lol, read that the typical mower can do a third of an acre on a single charge...we are on two acres, so mowing the lawn will drag out a couple of days at least.

And it would take me two days with charge time. Takes an hour and half with a gas mower. And what about commercial companies that do 15-20 yards day?

Most of my stuff is already electric, so I’m good. I do worry about the gas snowblower though. Mine is already 20 years old, I might have to buy a new one before it’s too late.
