Power usage on an electric blower is very different than other power tools. With a drill you are not constantly revving it. You use it for a few seconds to drive a screw and then setup for the next one. With the blower it's running continuously.

I have a drill than can run on a battery for most of a days work, while my leaf blower using the same batteries gets maybe 20 minutes of use, if I am conserving it.

I'm not a landscaper, so maybe it can be done, but I'll believe electric is better when the landscaping companies start using electric tools, just like carpenters switched from wired to battery when it made sense.

System prompt and other tooling make some difference.

Some of these are extreme, but what you're talking about is the https://512kb.club/, just keep it small, but no limits on what you can use.

Its really shocking to me that this isn't the number one priority. It's clearly a big issue for a lot of people.

I didn't like it either, but you could still play locally against ai without it, it was their online matchmaking and game servers that required the new epic account.

Still sucks, but it's not quite the same rug pull that's often seen.

Technically so are the metal ones, it's just the plastic doesn't conduct energy/heat as well as metal.

What kind of range do you have on that? I've been debating installing a l2 charger because overnight charging is usually good enough. I tend to get about 15-20 miles range tops on pure electric.

The problem with human curated lists is that in order to block bots everything will require an account to access. That's the real tragedy here.

That is my main beef with this particular hype train. People will be negatively effected by it, who had no choice in it. With the NFT hype a few years ago nobody was impacted unless they chose to dive into that area.

Given enough time, this hype will blow over

I tend to agree; however, during that time plenty of folks will be let go by middle management buying into the hype.

Same with Windows XP tablet edition. Windows phone. I'm glad they stuck it out with Xbox.

Which is why these gain traction on link aggregators, because someone else did the hard work of sifting through the crap.
