Leon - much as like 2 strokes, bin it !!

I bought myself a rechargeable strimmer a couple of years ago and never looked back.

It runs for ages between charges - "starts" when you want it, and also very light.

Before that I had a 2 stroke strimmer and I got fed up with the amount of times I swore at it because it would not start or run properly.

A piece of modern Tech that really does make life easier.
