In this episode of the Growing Green Podcast, Jeremiah sits down with Zafir, Director of Product for battery development, and Katie, Senior Product Manager for Outdoor Power Equipment at Milwaukee Tool, live from Pipeline 2026. They go deep into the technology behind M18, M12, MX Fuel, and RedLithium Forge while breaking down what landscape contractors actually need to consider before transitioning a crew from gas to battery-powered equipment.
Jeremiah also shares the real-world battery setup currently being used by Growing Green Landscapes, including M18 Forge batteries, MX Fuel blowers, Quik-Lok equipment, and Milwaukee’s Roll-On power supply. The group discusses what a full crew conversion can cost, why starting with a pilot crew may make sense, and how contractors should think about ROI rather than simply looking at the upfront price tag.
They also tackle one of the biggest challenges with battery equipment in the landscape industry: heat and runtime. Zafir explains how Cool-Cycle charging technology is designed to cool batteries during charging, improve performance between applications, and help extend battery life.
