Non-OEM battery for lawnmower/

You should never get rid of something that works...
But with the clover, I really have very little real use for a mower... so once the cheap gasoline one went to the point of non-repair... the Ryobi was the next logical option.
I already had the battery/charger for the 40v because of the powerhear attachment system... so made sense to just keep going.

I was under the impression that is why the Makita went with the LTX for so long; and then the rumors of the GTX came out.

They seemed to be following the original Ryobi 18v One+ concept.
I think they may be looking to the GTX for a two stage snowblower.
