The tools work great. The convenience of electric is super. But I am mad I am going to have to drop $500 already on some new batteries. There is no way I would even come close to $500 of gas at this point.
I'm not saying don't go electric/EGO, just be aware that you will be replacing these batteries MUCH FASTER than you anticipate. Don't go electric because you think it will be cheaper in the long run - it won't be.

I've got 4-5ah batteries. Two with the battery fuel indicator, two without. 1-7.5ah battery and 1-2.5ah battery. The two 5ah batteries I actually got as a package deal for $250 with a single stage snow blower that someone was selling at a yard sale who was moving to a warmer climate so those two batteries only have 3 years on them.
That being said during the winter I do as suggested and bring them indoors. I think I've only had to use them 2-3 times during the winter months. But April-November they're getting used no less than once a week if not twice or more.
Doing the fuel math in gas alone on just mowing for me was about $300 with $3.00/gallon gas over 3 years. Factor in spark plugs, air filters and oil for 3 years and you start to get really close to that $399 cost of the 7.5ah battery. If you make it into year 4, you'll be well over. And electricity cost for charging we're talking cents per charge.
Shit, I had an 8 yr old Nissan Leaf with no thermal management and lost 11% in 8+ years. Take your misinformed BS elsewhere.

So what you say are all excellent practices 100%, I wouldn't stray away from the Ego fast charger.

Ego makes good blower and trimmer, bad mower.
