Not a pro by any means I bought Hitachi now Metabo. Not because I am a fan but I only have one type of battery to deal with. I had the old Nicad sets but Changed over when the LI battery became the next best thing. They serve my purpose well.
I also have Greenworks and like it for the simplicity. Weed eater and especially the blower. They made me mad with there different voltage batteries, and no they have gone to 24v single or tandem. Puts my tools out of circulation once they quit :-(

Broken record but imo when choosing a cordless brand, battery and type of charger seems to be key in my experiences. Nothing seems more frustrating to me when I was employed to do work, using cordless tools you insert a battery fresh off the charger and it's doa. Yrs ago wasted countless time and spent countless $$$ on the old Milwaukee 18volt nicad system my car was stolen with all my Milwaukee tools. Went to DeWalt 18 volt nicad at that time and haven't looked back. I'll further driftingly brag and say I still use a majority of 18 volt DeWalt tools up north surprisingly to me a few of my 18 volt batteries are almost 20 yrs old still holding enough charge to be somewhat useable especially if you consider yourself a diy tinkerer.

Bought this last summer after a dead sxs battery. Battery was 8 yrs old lol needed sxs for a mapping job so postponed job until I replaced battery. Anyways this DeWalt jump, inverter, and air compressor has come in real handy. Compressor can be set for low psi ATV tires, powered a DeWalt ac 1/2 inch impact from it in the woods and has 2k amps of jump start power. Is heavy but compact only problems I see that I don't care for is the AC charge chord seems thin and cheap and there's no dedicated storage for removable charge chord on jump pack. Anyways has definitely been fantastic to me as this thread says.

Everything including tools both hand and power that's on his mini hay wagon bought running gear built deck, metal frames, and sides. Previously used as a roadside pumpkin selling cart until my sprawling 15 acres turned into a wild life sanctuary and the deer became well fed when the pumpkin plants started to bloom. Still an Amazing wagon to transport tools and materials to and from barn when bigger projects are undertaken on home or hobby farm acreage, not to mention the wheeled work storage carts on wagon. Doubles up as a work bench and cutting platform also. Unfortunately I still haven't mastered backing the thing hooked to lawn tractor or ATV. Will be using wagon to transport tools again this winter when kitchen and downstairs bathroom renovations start.

Put a hitch on the front of the lawn tractor.

Definitely thought about it I even welded an eye on my backwoods hacked front mounted 4 wheeler hitch however its just small enough I can still push it around by hand if I get in a bind even with some weight on it problaby couldn't with its t's max cap of 2k lbs I believe though.
