I may have said this before (or several times), but I really love a good battery-powered garden tool.

Lithium batteries are more powerful than ever, and not only are they used in large garden tools like lawnmowers, but also in small hand tools. With a power upgrade from a manual tool, you can zip through all kinds of garden work that is otherwise tedious and slow.
