Don't listen to these jokers. They seem to have strong opinions against battery powered lawn tools but with no first hand experience at all. I have a subdivision-sized lot and I'm never going back to gas. And my Stihl blower and trimmer DO NOT always start easy. Sometimes I have to crank for 20 seconds and 25% of the time they flood. And I actually do maintain them.
Another advantage is if you need to use your blower for a quick job you don't smell like exhaust afterwards.

I do not have any experience with battery powered lawn equipment, so I do not have strong opinions against them.
I'm simply giving my advice on the huge difference between a cheap shitty trimmer and blower and a stihl or echo trimmer and blower. The frustration the op talked about was similar to my experiences, and I thought about getting electric powered lawn equipment, but decided to get nice echo equipment and I'm very happy with my purchases.
