I still need a petrol blower not sure if there…"

William Beard replied to Andrew . Perkins's discussion Do battery powered tools justify the cost ?

"I agree with the previous replies. I love battery kit for all the noise, vibration, fumes and butting fuel reasons. I personally run the Stihl kit. It's not been without faults or problems but i know the husky stuff isn't either. I have the…"

Do battery powered tools justify the cost ?

I am really considering a battery powered Husqvarna 520 iHD70 anyone have one ?I am just struggling to justify the cost of a battery powered machine compared to petrol . I'll probably need 2 to 3 batteries and at least a charger or two . the cost…
