Battery vs Gas Power Tools
Gas-powered tools generate a high power output and are ideal for outdoor tasks like landscaping or construction where extended runtime and power are essential. They require regular fuel refills and maintenance and are noisier, which makes them better suited for professional or large-scale projects and less suited for those who have neighbors who want to sleep in on the weekend.
Battery-powered tools are portable and more quiet than gas-powered tools for the most part. They’re easy to start making them convenient for indoor or DIY jobs. Recent advances in battery technology have improved power and runtime, which surprises people trying out battery-operated tools for the first time.
