You didn't know that batteries were more expensive than tanks?

  I didn't know the battery packs were so expensive that having them in a landscaping work truck was a substantial liability.

    You've never bought batteries? Or, did you think that light weight and small yet powerful batteries were somehow inexpensive? Whenever there's a discussion of using batteries for anything, the three issues that come up are cost, weight, and size. You can take a hit on one or two to get some improvement on the remainder, but... Batteries for portable equipment must be good on weight and size given the power required, so cost is what goes up.
