https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pJ28BixU0Go I have seen this teased for awhile now, but the really interesting thing is they are shipping 5.0 ah battery packs with their new 36/40v tools. I can’t even imagine one of those new cordless mowers with a 5.0ah battery pack. They would have some insane run time.
Kato’s dreams came true!
That actually looks pretty nice,ive been thinking of getting a small chainsaw for around the yard and a cordless one would be really cool.
Kato kind of vanished over the past few weeks.
maybe he’s doing well with his photography biz, the guy has talent
Kato finally has a new job, and is enjoying being genuinely happy for once in a long, long time. I’m still around, I check the site every day but haven’t had much to say. Photography is kinda pushed side for now, I still shoot here and there but I’m trying to get into the zone of being back to work and dealing with less time to spend with the family.
The chainsaw…yup, gonna have to add that to the list of tools I want…

Glad to hear you’re back to work Kato.
When people stop posting for a few weeks you begin to wonder if things are going ok with them. I’m surprised but not surprised that Chase has gone MIA I get being a teen is fun and your busy with tons of other fun things, but he could pop in and say hello occasionally just to placate us grumpy old men. I guess we want to know if people are doing well. Glad to hear you got a new job Kato hope everything is going well with it.
Very nice. RYOBI is moving in to brushless! Can’t wait to see more from them.
brushless and 5.0 ah, not bad for ryobi. also, the cells in the pack look like sony’s
Sthil has their new battery line up. They have a lawn mower, handheld blower, weed trimmer, hedge trimmer, and chainsaw.
I will second Stihl. I have heard that their cordless tools are top notch. I havent heard of any issues at all. If you have the money go for them.
It comes down to your budget I’m sure the Stihl is really nice, but is not affordable for most people.

Maintenance Tech at an O’Reilly Auto distribution center. Still under construction so there’s no real maintenance to do yet, but we manage to fill the day with totally random nonsense. Too many bosses with their own priorities to get anything serious done but what the heck, it makes the day go by fast
