Cool Stuff You Just Bought

[.Stripes.]

Used some Bunnings vouchers I got for Christmas and bought myself one of these:

Previously I bought a Honda 4 stroke bent shaft line trimmer, but always hated it. You always had to have lots of fuel in so it didn't cut out when turning it on its side to do the edging and it sucked to start and hurt my back doing edging coz of the short and bent shaft.

 

This new one however is farking ace! Made the heaps faster, doesn't need hearing protection and didn't need to put fuel in it. I'm pretty chuffed!

I've had a Li-Ion trimmer for about 6 years. There's some stuff it struggles with (we were in a much smaller place when I got it) but being able to just press a button and go is pretty awesome. Yours is more higher end than mine though.

I got a Bosch that had the same batteries as my drill and impact driver, so always have plenty of batteries ready to go.

Battery is awesome for the home - I've got a heap of the Ryobi 36v stuff (will probably be laughed at) and love just having them all ready to go with zero prep.

I'm actually so impressed with it that I'm more than likely going to sell my current mower and line trimmer and get the Victa 82V mower too...it's great!

Definitely recommend it - Make sure you get at least one of the 4ah batteries though.

 

I've currently got:

Mower

Trimmer with edger and pole pruner attachments

Chainsaw

Blowervac

Pressure washer.

1 x 2.4ah and 2 x 5ah batteries (and would love another and the fast charger)

[.Stripes.]

Well, this 2ah battery only used like a quarter-half of its charge to do the front and back. So I reckon I'll be fine with the other 2ah battery that comes with the mower. Supposed to run for like 30-40mins in the mower, which will be plenty.

 

Kinda also tempted to sell my Ozito Blower so I can get the Victa skin so I'll only need to worry about charging one type of battery.

Have bought myself a decent bundle of these dryage and curing bags

Can't wait (but will have to lol) to get some steak, brisket, salami, pepperoni, prosciutto, bresoala etc on the go
