When I need it out away from a plug in I take my generator with me and use it that way. Both are nice for those small jobs that always come up but the battery one is really handy as less prep work.<br /><br />Thanks for the comment!!!<br /><br />PioneerPreppyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09269878017447335944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8788289492661192400.post-16695288888881486672014-08-17T13:41:24.386-04:002014-08-17T13:41:24.386-04:00Ya the Lithium one's are much better.

I can use it, dispite being a petite female with arthritic hands. And yup, MUCH less scary than a fullsized gas model. I have though, on SEVERAL occasions wished it was cordless, and I've found B&D to be a decent brand, so I"ll have to keep this one in mind!

The 18 volt ni-cad battery types are being phased out and while a great deal the battery in those just are not as good as the lithium types. <br />You might check out the Earthworks brand of corded and battery powered tools.
