I have two beef. cycle garden-
Power equipment, especially blow-blowing machines and flasks.
In my opinion, the noise level and exhaust gas of these powerful machines are excessive for the work they do.
Their use in densely populated urban environments is unforgivable and unsustainable.
You will notice that professionals who use these machines usually wear hearing protection devices.
But what about passers-by or people trying to read the newspaper on the front porch? When a hair dryer/air pump user walks past, heads down, dust and debris are delivered to the sky --high.
Many people reading this will agree with me that others have started and don't care.
So, I am ready to take a compromise position on this issue.
It's not that I changed, it's technology.
We now have a reasonable and practical alternative.
Circulating gas powered engine. 1. Lithium Ion.
The new rechargeable battery is changing the way we maintain the garden.
A few years ago, when rechargeable batteries were first launched, they were known for not charging for a long time.
Through the wonders of modern science and innovation, we can finally turn down the volume and finish the work without letting the entire community enter the room.
Lithium-ion batteries have a longer life and charge more than a few years ago. 2. More power.
You can now buy a chainsaw powered by a lithium ion rechargeable battery.
I don't, but I will one day.
I was told that they work well, though not for experienced forestry professionals.
Their presence and high praise tell me that we are moving in the right direction.
Note that the battery itself does not determine the power of the machine, but rather the design of the machine itself.
18 V is 18 V, no matter which battery it comes from. 3.
Less energy is needed.
Charging a lithium-ion rechargeable battery takes several nickels and charges more than the previous generation of rechargeable batteries.
No oil can be mixed with natural gas, and there are fewer moving parts.
Lower maintenance costs. 4.
Durable and recyclable.
Rechargeable batteries are recyclable, but don't put them in your blue box.
Look for a recycling facility near you for garbage disposal.
You can replace them when they are "done.
I do not naively think that the garden electrical equipment will soon disappear.
That is why I take this compromise position on this issue.
If you promise to replace your complaint
I promise to cycle the machine with new, cleaner, quieter techniques to stop abdominal pain.
If we don't talk about quiet criminals, we can't talk about replacing the loudest criminals in the neighborhood.
I don't have a leaf blower, but I have a few harrows.
My "garden" is 10 acres.
Well, I spent two types of time making compost leaves that didn't have to go down any more than I would have to take a month-cycle machine.
But the point is that when I do, I won't drive everyone crazy at home and around.
Also, I love the experience of Larkin.
