CartHere’s How to Choose the Best Battery for Your Outdoor Power Equipment
Tackle your projects with outdoor power equipment (OPE) that delivers the performance you want. Cordless tools combine convenience and range with improved, next-generation power and run time. They operate more quietly than gas-powered equipment, too. Battery type plays a critical role in OPE performance. Here’s how to power up for your outdoor maintenance needs.
Outdoor Power Equipment (OPE) Battery Types
Most OPE batteries are rechargeable, and all offer exceptional ease of use and low maintenance. Save time and effort with no cords to worry about and no need for fuel mixing, carburetor cleaning or winterizing at season’s end. Here are the main battery types you can choose between.
TIP: Choose the same brand for all your OPE components so the batteries can be used interchangeably across all your equipment.
Buying Considerations
When choosing an OPE battery, review the voltage and capacity to ensure they meet the power and run time needs of your OPE. Here are some top-of-mind considerations for finding the right fit.
TIP: Don’t assume a battery is fully charged when purchased, and always check the charging instructions on a new battery to prevent damage.
Outdoor Power Equipment
Now that you’re powered up with the right batteries (don’t forget to buy extras so you can keep working between charges!), consider these outdoor power tools to make shorter work of your outdoor projects.
