LOL!! EV range not only reduced in cold, ALSO reduced in HEAT!!

Go to buy a chain saw, there are now more electric options than gas. Check out the latest lawn mower offerings -- again, electric outnumber the gas offerings. I happen to be an engineer in the electric motor arena, and am trying to make these things actually make financial and practical sense to more folks. My stuff isn't on the market yet. When it is, you'll change your tune for sure.

As a professional, I see massive opportunity in battery powered applications for all of the reasons that prompted you to make the quoted post. Personally, I have a battery powered chain saw, lawn mower, and a few power tools; but no EV in the driveway. I have an '84 Dodge Rampage slated for an EV conversion to showcase our company's stuff, but it's but a mere shell right now. I have a catalog of products I've been commissioned to create that makes the whole "battery powered" more attractive. Oh, and I have a flat chest and no man bun.

Here is a "private" video intended for business clients that hints at the direction I'm going:

When there's a natural disaster I wouldn't trust a battery powered saw to cut a tree off my house or cut a tree out of my driveway so I can get out.

Each one of these batteries has a limited shelf life. I can run a chainsaw indefinitely with regular maintenance. How long until I have to replace a battery and pay a disposal fee? How expensive will that be? Will I be able to use aftermarket batteries? Will I be able to fix and repair my own chainsaw? Or will these be the new HP Printers where its cheap up front and the consumer gets gouged over time?

And for the conspiracy bit:
What happens when some idiot decides to restrict chain saw sales and my chain saw gets remotely disabled because it's a "weapon"
