The kid said your $300 weed eater uses a $250 battery if it’s out of the three year warranty.
But he said, look at this wall full of power toys for $300 that all use that same battery. Buy one every year or two until your garage is full, and you’ll have lots of batteries.
They had chainsaws, pole saws, hedge trimmers, leaf blowers, power washers, paint sprayers, air compressors, even a lawnmower.
In ten years there won’t be any gas power toys, any more than there are electric power toys with cords today.
