From The EAC: The Quiet Revolution
As Spring arrives each year, homeowners start thinking again about their vegetable gardens, flower beds, lawns and trees. Ensuring outdoor equipment is ready for the new season is an important part of that tradition.
Today, battery-powered tools are playing a growing role in our yard tool arsenal. Quiet operation, no exhaust, less maintenance and a push-button start. What’s not to love?
Market research firms and the outdoor equipment industry are very bullish on batteries, particularly for the homeowner market. There’s not much we can do yet about landscaping crews with their noisy backpack blowers and speedy zero-turn mowers. But for your own back forty, why not think more about joining the quiet revolution?
