A revolution in leaf-blowers and other garden equipment
Saturday, September 26, 2009 at 11:05AM I just met a gentleman named Captain Bernardo J. Herzer, CEO of a LHER. Bernardo that has created a set of new "green" internal combustion engine technologies, all designed to run using propane. I love new technologies that work to improve the environment and this guy really seems to be on to something.
You might be wondering, as I was, "What can propane do for me?"
Here are some facts from the LHER website:
Why propane?
Propane is:

- Canisters are readily available
- Zero evaporative emissions
- Zero ozone depleting hydrocarbons
- Non toxic to ground water and soil
