I have other tools that use 50:1 and don't want different fuel cans /
mixes. anyone know of any petrol strimmers that use this ratio?

thanks

There's nothing particularly magic about any particular ratio, the
variations between 20:1 and 50:1 just reflect differences in the
quality of the recommended 2-stroke oil and, maybe, some differences
in the motors. Just decide on a compromise ratio (say 25:1) and use
that for all your 2-strokes, they'll be fine.
