Hey, so I had an idea. See, we have an electric lawnmower, an electric what-do-you-call-it leaf blower thing, and an electric weed-eater. Better for the environment than the gassy kind, yay, but not convenient AT ALL. There's that stupid cord trailing behind and getting in the way. "Self," I said, "wouldn't it be swell if I could rig up a battery that could run these things?"

I talked it over with some friends at work, who quickly showed their true colors as NaySayers. You know exactly who you are. Let's see you create someting! For I have created...this. Here it is unassembled. First, comes the weedeating. Next, the mowing. Smooth as a baby's bottom. And here's the trifecta to round it out. Charge it up, and it's ready to go for next time. On the down side, the backpack weighs in at 50 pounds. Just in case the battery runs out before I get done, there's always the old fashioned way.
