Hi NormK and AVB,
I was wondering where you went AVB and if all was well. Glad you're still about and keeping outdoor appliances on the road.
Have you noticed a trend towards battery equipment as is occurring here? Professionals are now turning to them. No more hassles with temperamental carbs and ever more restrictive tuning. This bypasses that problem. They don't pollute and they only run when you're doing work with them. They make a lot of sense with hand held equipment compared to transport.
Actually there is a lot pollution associated battery power, just not locally. Battery components are very pollution intensive as are the electric companies. Just transferring where the pollution is generated.
Yes the State of California is actually going to ban all new petrol power small equipment sales.
