Luckily Ego has stuck with the same 56 volt batteries, just offering them in different capacities but all interchangeable. When they need more, they just take more of them; my pressure washer requires two batteries, and their riding lawn mowers take four.
The limit of that, however, is that they can’t make small devices, so I have to use a different ecosystem for things like drills, drivers, and sanders. But Ego is so much better than the alternatives for lawn care that it’s worth the extra chargers.

And uses the same battery as my pressure washer, lawn mower, weed eater, edger (giggity), misting fan, and chainsaw. It really is a great line of products.

I tend to for leaf removal. The blower is more for gutter-cleaning, blowing random woods-generated debris off the porch and deck, and blowing lawn clippings off the sidewalk/street/driveway/walkway back into my lawn.

Or clean your gutters?

Even battery powered ones? I’d only heard of bans on gas ones.

Luckily I own a battery powered one owned by a giant multinational gas company (Ego/Chevron)!

Counting letters in “strawberry”
Alright, I’m checking: the word “strawberry” is spelled S T R A W B E R R Y. Let me count the letters: S (1), T (2), R (3), A (4), W (5), B (6), E (7), R (8), R (9), Y (10). There are three R’s: in positions 3, 8, and 9. So, the answer is 3. Even if we ignore case, the count still holds. Therefore, there are 3 r’s in “strawberry.”
