  • How is your lawn mower equipped, it looks like you are only using one lead-acid battery but I can't tell that easily based on the video. What type of motor do you have and what wattage and voltage is it rated at? Do you have any controls beyond battery voltage to prevent dangerous overspeed of the blade or are you just using a permanent magnet motor with the proper voltage to provide the RPM you need? Do you have an EVAlbum page for it?
