Caveat: they don’t run for ever. The battery needs to be recharged at an interval that roughly coincides with my time for a rest

Fine for you and me, and probably fine for most homeowners, but not so fine for commercial lawn care companies who work 8 hour shifts. That'd be a lot of batteries to haul around from job to job, and then put on a bank of chargers overnight.

I use all kinds of battery powered stuff on the jobsite. Seldom use anything with a cord anymore.

To keep the batteries charged I run a gas powered generator much of the time.

The lawn service people would need to do the same thing.
