I have a Greenworks Pro 60volt battery operated push mower. Also a Greenworks Pro 60volt Snowblower.
I also have a 40volt Ryobi pole saw.
Looking at buy a battery operated leaf blower and also a hedge trimmer. Currently I have Stihl a gas powered blower, Stihl gas powered extended reach hedge trimmer. Looking for something lighter duty than the heavier duty + high quality Stihl gas powered units for just light jobs. Not looking to get rid of my Stihl.
Pretty much married to the Greenworks & the Ryobi brands, simply because I already have the batteries and the chargers.
My thought is that I'll probably go with the Greenworks hedge trimmer at $119 versus the Ryobi at $129. And for the blower I'll probably get this Greenworks at $119 versus the Ryobi at $149. Pretty close to apples to apples comparisons. But since I want lighter weight and more convenient tools, I'm thinking that going with the slightly lower priced products because I still will have high quality and higher capacity gas operated tools for bigger jobs.
Am I missing something? Honestly for a supplemental tool I'm thinking that price is king as long there is enough capacity in the tool. And since I already have the batteries I only need the tool. I don't want to add another brand, with another battery + charger.
