maybe this has been asked but you say you can cut the grass a couple times on one charge, about how long does it take you to cut your yard? With a push mower it takes me about 45 min to cut mine, so im curious to if a single charge will do the whole yard, 2nd question, does the mower start to bog down in deeper grass? at times i get lazy and let my grass get pretty tall, just curious how tall the grass has to be to bog the mower. Thanks for your video

@rooster828 I think I can answer all of your questions by saying that this mower is almost identical to a gas mower (except for the noise, the exhaust, and the smelly gas). If you have a five acre estate in upper New York, then you might need a riding mower. Otherwise, I'm of the opinion it ought to be a crime to use a gas mower for the typical suburban lawn because this electric mower could do all of the lens on my block with one charge.

Northwestmike would like to ask you how much does it cost to charge up the baterie after every use>?

[northwestmike]

@Dorisequador Not sure, haven't calculated it. But likely pennies. It doesn't use any power when "idling" and it definitely costs less than a gas mower.

How long have you been using this electric mower ? I wonder how long the battery will last. I love your vdo, it's so sharp and sounds good too. Thanks for posting it.

[northwestmike]

@gentle991 I only used it last season, but I'll use it again this season. The battery seems to be pretty robust. I could mow my lawn a few times before I even needed to think about using the charger.

@DACT Dact is a russian spy he wants us to buy buy buy robots.. ahhhhhh they are cutting everything ...

[Dorisequador]

@Learjet66 I think it useds dollars of electricty per charge where I use 25 to 50 cents of gaz per cut .

Personally I think they should make bigger electric mowers like 36 inches or more and as it runs a genrator recharges the baterie.

[Learjet66]

@Dorisequador This mower uses roughly 0.5 (1/2) kW/h per charge. Find out how many cents per kW your electricity provider charges and divide by 2. For me here in Australia it works out to be about 10 cents for a full charge. But as another poster mentions, the cost is in replacing the battery which don't last that many cycles.

Save your money. The battery dies in 2 seasons. Replacement battery is nearly $100.

[Dorisequador]

Works is way better.
