RULES
- Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
- Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
- Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
- Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
- Keep it clean and SFW

Even better: tools on a wire
It's getting legit difficult to find corded tools, corded mowers are fine for the size of yard I have, but choice in those was extremely limited. Yeah battery ones exist, they're twice the price for the cheapest ones and only go up from there, I can live with an extension cord.
I haven't had much trouble after ditching google and bing. Except for headphones that take aaa batteries
Wired tools are also a pain unless you have a limited scope for movement.
I make sure to have plenty of extension cords, and sockets hanging from most ceilings (with a place to tuck them away).
I don't know hoe relevant this is, but I am in a 240 volt country. So extension cords don't really run hot or poorly even with quite a bit of distance and high loads
