It’s almost spring and about time to start thinking lawn care. Maybe it’s also time to stop spilling gas on the lawn and spewing toxic fumes around the neighborhood. Traditional gas-powered lawnmowers, trimmers and weed wackers are some of the biggest polluters, pound for pound, of any consumer operated devices on the planet. 
A cleaner, easier to operate, alternative is now on the market, the LEHR Eco Trimmer is the world’s first propane-powered lawn and garden tool. The Eco Trimmer is the first product in LEHR’s Eco Series and has all the power and performance of a gasoline trimmer — minus the detrimental pollution and emissions associated with dirty gasoline engines. The Eco Trimmer emits zero hydrocarbons, zero evaporative emissions, 96% fewer carcinogens and 97% fewer particulates than its gasoline counterpart and already exceeds the EPA’s 2011 regulations for home and garden equipment.
Fueled by a standard propane canister and its patented, “Twist ‘n’ Go” fueling system, the trimmer operates for 2 hours on a single propane canister, requires very little maintenance and starts at the push of a button.
It’s on-sale now at Ace Hardware, True Value Hardware and most Sears locations. Other major home retailers to follow in June. Learn more at www.golehr.com

A propane tank…no gasoline. Count me in.
Whats the cost?
$199
Many Home Depot stores have these on clearance for $99. That’s right, 99 bux. Even though they just came out this year, Home Depot has decided NOT to sell them in stores, only online. So the store units are being cleared out. Bought mine yesterday, and they had over half a dozen in both the straight shaft and the curved shaft.
