I’m going back to a gas leaf blower and a trimmer from electric ones. Starting to get concerned with lithium battery fires.

Thanks! This just reminded me of the lithium battery I’ve had on the charger since yesterday.

You seem to be confusing hating the planet with not wanting to be shoehorned into using inferior technology that doesn’t meet my needs (I don’t use a yard guy, I do my own yard work). I would gladly use a good technology , that’s better for the planet I care a great deal about, if it’s both practical for my needs and cost effective.
