Two plain tool batteries and a charger on a dusty crate.

Essential

Tool battery and charger

Burning Man dust gear

The cheaper pack that runs the blower if you do not already own the tools.

Why it's on the list

A name-brand tool battery costs more than the blower. A compatible pack and charger runs the same little tool, and it is what we buy when nobody in camp already has DeWalt or Makita on the truck. One pack is enough. Charge it before the gate.

How we use it

Buy the pack that matches the blower you picked, and take the charger in the same order if the listing offers it. DeWalt 20V, Makita 18V, Milwaukee, Ryobi: the foot has to be the same one. Start the week full. Keep the pack in the shade.

Heads up

Read the platform on the listing and on the blower before you pay. A pack that will not say what it fits is the wrong pack. Heat ends these. A closed car at noon is the failure, not the brand on the sticker.

Tool battery and charger

Often less than a name-brand tool battery.
