I'd like to get a battery or gas powered one. Which is most eco friendly? Which is the most powerful battery one. I'd like comments from owners as well as to their performance and longevity.

At least one local government around here is giving consideration to banning gas powered leaf blowers, at least ones used by homeowners.

For professional yard care companies there would need to be exemptions and/or a phase-in period.
