Show Notes

In this special live episode from the STIHL booth at Equip Expo 2024, moderator Marty Grunder is joined by an expert panel including Brandon Haley, Vice President of Grounds at SSC Services for Education, Chase Stetson of "That Lawn Dude," and Mike Poluka, Senior Manager at STIHL USA. 

The panel explores best practices for managing battery-powered tools, both on-site and at company headquarters. You’ll hear how to promote battery technology to customers, how and where to use mobile charging solutions, and how to track assets and equipment with connected tracking systems. Wondering about charging times and environmental challenges—like extreme heat and cold? These issues are also addressed. The benefits of battery power are many, including its lighter weight, enhanced safety features, and improved performance. The episode concludes with audience questions, tackling real-world challenges and practical solutions for keeping battery tools running smoothly throughout the day.
