Worth upgrading from 80V 21" to the 80V 21" Gen 2?
Hi all,
I bought the (I presume) Gen 1 Greenworks 80V from Costco a few weeks back.
I'm seeing now that for $100 more, the Gen 2 is available online.
I am contemplating returning the one I bought and ordering the Gen 2 online. One reason being that the lawn mower I bought has a different charger than my also recently purchased Greenworks weed whacker / leaf blower combo pack from Costco.
Aside from the annoying battery charger incongruency between my mower and my weedwhacker/leaf blower, does anyone see any substantial improvements from Gen 1 to Gen 2?
