I would not want to take the ritual of creating a useless monoculture away from you. If I could find a guy in the east who would do my yard work for $15 I would sell all my lawn equipment. I just spent a couple hours out there in the silly August heat, it has its ups and downs.
Replacement batteries for that stuff are not cheap and you still need mowerblades and string for the string trimmer and such and then trips to the orthopedist for the resulting injuries.

Thanks...I knew I could depend on you to highlight the negative.
(only kidding)
Oddly enough the batteries are rechargeable...and all interchange with my other power tools.

My wife was marveling at my ability to do that just yesterday!
I find that rechargeable batteries seldom life up to their advertised life expectancy. It's good to have ones that are somewhat standardized, the batteries on some craftsmen tools I had were pretty much shit and I found a 4 pack of them pretty cheap on Amazon so now those tools are usable again, it's frustrating to use any tool and have the battery die without another handy.

I'm pretty happy so far with Dewault
Their 20max and FlexVolt batteries interchangeably power a broad range of tools from yardwork to woodworking.

I have their drill and impact driver, I like it and the batteries so far seem ok, they charge in about the same time it takes to run one down so you can keep working consistently.

that seems more like what you need for something like a lawnmower

That's what I use for the lawnmower.
