The benefits of battery powered tools

An astounding return of investment –

Battery power has come a long way from its humble roots. Modern lithium-ion battery packs provide incredible performance and can last up to 10 hours on a full charge, charging up to 80% battery capacity in less than 35 minutes. With efficiency and longevity like that, perhaps it’s time to rethink the notion that gas and corded electric are the ultimate in engine power.

Battery powered tools are definitely changing the landscaping game.

Seasoned power tool users might see the smaller – and lighter – tool, and assume that the power has to be compromised. But it’s not all about size. Husqvarna’s brushless motors provide full torque at low revs, and at 25% higher efficiency than a standard brush motor. Whether you’re using a weed trimmer to cut high, thick and wet grass, or using a chainsaw to do limbing or wood cutting, battery powered equipment gives you higher and more consistent torque.

Another added benefit of the lithium-ion system? Whether you’re using a weed trimmer, chainsaw, blower or hedge trimmer, the same 36-volt battery will seamlessly fit into each tool in the same manner. This added flexibility saves time

Maintenance and emissions free

While some of the benefits of battery powered tools are obvious, the money saved on fuel is also an added benefit for the environment. You do not have to use messy and harmful fuel to recharge your tools. You’re basically saving the planet while saving money, and getting up to 25% increased performance.

With battery powered tools, you get to experience the freedom, power and convenience of gas power but with the cost saving benefits of a corded electric power tool. Battery powered tools run much quieter than other tools, making any job less stressful and taxing on the community. Everyone can get behind a quieter power tool.

The long-term savings don’t stop there. Without a complicated engine with a bunch of moving parts, the maintenance on battery powered tools are much simpler and lighter on your wallet.
