They shouldn't be underpowered. Small electric motors are way more powerful per mass/volume than small gas motors. You'd have to use a backpack mounted battery pack, but contractors are already doing that.
- boringg 10mo agoHave they started doing that? I haven't seen the backpack mounted version in use in the wild. I haven't seen any electric blowers get to the same capability in the contractor market segment. Prosumer -- for sure no problems there.
- bryanlarsen 10mo agoPerhaps not. Businesses are way more conservative than consumers when adopting new tech, so there will be little demand at the beginning. And with little demand, there's little supply. Laws like the headline will break this chicken/egg problem.
