Leaf blower, chain saw, pressure washer. Gas
Sander, edger, weed walker, hedge clippers. Electric (ryobi)
Lawn mower is still gas. 2 acres is currently a push mower until I get my new she shed and can get a zero turn

I think I pick and choose when to stay old school and when to go electric.

Also, I push mowed a 1.5 acre lot throughout middle and high school... that was bullshit. Occasionally the guy that worked at the golf course that we butted up against would take pity and use his giant zero turn to do the back half in like 5 minutes... otherwise it would take me about 2 hours to do the whole thing. When my mom did it she would do about 1/3 of it at a time and by the time she finished the back, the front needed to be mowed again.
