Scoping mowers and looking at the Greenworks CRZ428 zero-turn. 80v system. 42" deck. The Costco version comes with 12 4Ah batteries. Looks like the mower takes 6 batteries at a time, and run time with 6 is more than enough for my use case. How are these things?

Really want a stander for the ergos and smaller footprint but electric standers are $$$$.
Anyone have experience with the Milwaukee sixteen inch bar M eighteen chainsaw? It’s a hundred bucks off right now
A 42” deck electric mower? wtf. 12 batteries? You got money to burn I guess. A gas version will last several lifetimes unless you are a landscaper. Then it will only last ten years.
As for any electric chain saw fuck yeah. For a homeowner it’s so much easier. Still need bar oil and chains. But grab it and go is so nice. Not as fast. But quieter for stealth work.
My buddy said he almost never runs his gas saws any more cuz he likes that m18 one so much. Great toolQuote:

You'll shoot your eye out ;)
battery chain saws rule. You can't buck rounds all day but killer for limbing and taking down smaller trees. I have a battery one in my arsenal of saws.

The Milwaukee cultivator attachment works better than expected for tilling. Forward is shallower than pulling backwards which grinds down a couple inches. The [emoji638] speeds are nice. It’s very handy for grinding up gopher mounds.

Passing on this one. Likely going gas stander. Reluctantly.Quote:

Right. They have a commercial line with on-board batteries but the entry point is well north of 10k.

This won't happen. There are benefits to the end user, but it just goes against free markets. And how would it work with existing tools...it couldn't, so that would be incredibly wasteful.
Can we sic them on MTB companies next to force just one single standard???
Checking the date on that article....Apr 1 lol.

Hey, we got the uni hanger and transmission!
The Milwaukee M18 outdoor power tools are serving me well. An unintended use was to bust up the hard clay bottom of a 160 ft trench to level a bed for an electric line, after the Mini-X was done trenching, using the tiller attachment.
