    I've used both gas and electric tools. I think they both have their advantages. Which one is "better" probably varies from person to person. I think I'd prefer the electric chainsaw and multi-tool. But I'd rather stick with the gas powered string trimmer. The wood you're cutting looks very pretty. I'm looking forward to seeing what you make from it.

    • @WhatMeikeMakes
      @WhatMeikeMakes  4 місяці тому +2

      I can only agree! 👍 it very much also depends on the size of the job. I really love the battery operated string trimmer since it’s so light and I can turn it on and off when I have to move items to mow underneath.

    Wow, the tools are quiet. Even with your background music in the video you can hear how quiet they are. Ideal for small jobs and on the fly swapping. I would love to see more of these tools and see how the batteries hold up. Gas is always better, but the secret to them is to NOT use regular(low grade) octane in them even when it requires mixed fuel. Another mistake people make is keeping the gas for to long. Thats very bad for engines. The one you tried to start looked like an Eco brand... I prefer the Stihl brand. They are hard to beat. Great video as always and looking forward to more use of these tools. Perhaps trying to carve that stump with the chain saw and make a sculpture lol

    • @WhatMeikeMakes
      @WhatMeikeMakes  4 місяці тому +1

      Hi Kevin, I couldn’t agree more, the fact that the tool heads/attachments can be easily swapped out is the best fact. Also when I have to move something real quick, I just turn off the machine and right back on. Stihl are great, no question about that.
      I’ve always used that premixed fuel for my tools. But especially when they are hot 🥵 it’s impossible to turn them back in after a quick break

I looked at older pictures of the property and there were some that have been cut down since. So I’m sure that’s the left overs of that tree 👍💪

    I'm slowly switching to battery powered tools outside and in my shop. They are more reliable and start when needed as long as the batteries are charged :) My problem with the gas-powered ones, is that I don't start them often enough to keep them running smooth and the local small engine shops can't get parts or won't take them in. So, my only gas-powered outdoor tool is a John Deer Zero Turn mower, everything has been replaced with battery power.

    I'm a small engine mechanic, so I am biased towards gas, but... I do have several battery tools as well. They are great when you don't use them all the time and only for short periods. But... like you said, you will need extra batteries if you use them for longer periods. Batteries cost $$$ and they still need to be charged, so there is still good reason to use gas as well. I don't mind the choice at all, but I do hate the battery is being FORCED on us and gas is being phased out. 🤷‍♂ Neither is a one-size fits all solution.

    • @WhatMeikeMakes
      @WhatMeikeMakes  3 місяці тому +2

      Oh I get you on that. I agree that each has its purpose. If you have larger jobs gas is the way to go. For smaller areas and placed where you have to turn it on and off because there are items to move battery is the way to go 👍 also it’s much lighter.

Aujourd'hui ces outils sont moins polluants plus légers et tout aussi efficaces que leurs homologues essence.

    For me personally I still don't fully trust Battery operated garden tools. They may work great for the first few times you use them but when the batteries needs replacing the battery usually cost more than the tool itself. Same with power tools. You can buy the drill, saw or router nice and cheap but the batteries always cost a small fortune.
