Well we all knew this was coming didn't we ?
Which state has all the battery power research ?
So it is in their interest to have everyone buying a new mower / blower / chainsaw every 2 to 3 years
The environmentally ignorant & passionate green lobbyists will throw their support behind the current administration so they will be in power for at least 2 more terms on the back of this.
First term they will ban the sale of petrol powered tools
Second term they will ban the use of petrol powered tools
For the 3rd term election they will announce the ban of the retail sale of petrol powered cars
For the 4th term they will ban the use of petrol powered cars, just after they stock up on Tesla shares.

won't hurt
Sometimes stuff like that will affect different computers differently
Their governor is in the process of being recalled, but the counties won't take the signatures from the petitions to make it happen.

I see the mayor did neither maths nor science.

California considering statewide ban on gas-powered gardening equipment
Some 60 cities in California already have some form of ban on gas-powered garden tools including Berkeley, Los Gatos, Mill Valley, and Sonoma.abc7news.com
Cool! Add that to the list of things you can't use when the power company shuts down your grid because of fear of overloading the system and starting ANOTHER forest fire.

First most of the electric grid caused fires are from blowing items contacting the transmission lines causing sparks from short circuits. Limiting users to battery powered is only going to increase over grown vegetation problems as people will just another to not to work because the battery is dead. Even battery powered equipment can cause sparks that ignites very dry vegetation. With California also limiting weed killers it is no wonder things are getting out hand.
The only solution to the power grid problem is wireless transmission which is impossible at the current time at the amperage needed. Can't bury the lines due earth movements.
It a catch 22 in one sense. Basically you are damn if you do and damn if you don't.
