4. I have too much to mow without using an IC mower.

That said, 6 years ago I bought 3 Stihl battery powered devices a weed wacker, chain saw and small mower. They have made my yard work much more pleasant. 2 cycle saws and grass trimmers tend to gum up the carboraters if not used regularly and pollute worse than 4 cycle engines plus they sound like a herd of pregnant mosquitoes.
