Not hard, at all.
Just take along an extra battery, or how ever many extra batteries you need.
Most tool lines have several tools that can use the same batt. We have a pole saw, a 12" chain saw, & a weed whacker that all use the same Kobalt 40v batt. We bought 2 of the tools WITH batt, & one without. So, we have 2 batts & 2 chargers.
Would sure help if all the different brands used the same batts. That way, you could just buy a cheap generic batt, that would fit lots of different brands & tools. But, I suppose that's one of the ways the different brands make a profit, by selling batts that will work ONLY in their tools.

Check around online, including eBay. There are actually battery adapters out there that allow you to use, say, a Dewalt battery in a Milwaukee tool. EDIT:
