YEah it's been frustrating. Those two stroke horror shows in leafblowing/lawnmowing/etc need to be cycled out, but e-tools are still priced as luxury.
I'm hoping in about 5 years, especially with sodium ion in production, that changes.
The really cool thing about battery production is that it's not like an ICE engine where you have to design an ICE for this size application and an ICE for that size application: the batteries can be used in a leaf blower, a moped, a car, a truck, or a massive grid.
The battery supply can be routed wherever needed. That should result in a vastly cheaper overall industry than the ICE drivetrain industry. Sure you need different electric motors, but those aren't THAT different, and the industrial world has already been building all the necessary sizes and variations for a century now.
