Sydney tools has makita mower $549 with a free battery.
You can then buy a blower,charger and battery for $199. Do not buy the charger and 2nd battery seperate as cost more and wont get the blower.

Be interesting too see how yours goes. I wouldnt get a battery one personally .I checked them out and they have no balls and overpriced for what power they have compared to a petrol one. What made you get away from a petrol one And how do you find this thing? I can only assume it was to hard for you to start. The 80yld lady down the road had the same reasoning to go electric.
I will be curious how long batteries last. Generally that is the weak point when you buy handyman stuff.

I decided that rechargeable were not advanced enough yet. For mine it had to be equal or better than petrol.

So I bought a corded Bosch. A few hundred on amazon and zips through the Sir Walter. Lightweight so it hangs on a wall. I run it with a long extension from a few external GPOs. I’m happy. Works good. Germans know their shit.
