The theory is simple: instead of buying a household item or a piece of clothing or some equipment you might use once or twice, you take it out and return it.

Yeah I love my 40v job too!! I can crush the lawn in record time on a single charge and its whisper quiet.

    Dude, I've had my 40V mower for almost 8 years and it's still kicking. So incredibly easy to use. One of my batteries crapped out after about 6 years, but the other still holds a great charge, and I've collected a couple others over the years as I've added the trimmer, blower, and chainsaw from the same brand. In retrospect, my life was terrible in the before-times.
