In a van.... down by the river

I looked at an Ego today, but it comes with a tiny battery that they (ego) says will run for 30 mins. The big battery is as much as the mower :brow:
Have you looked at corded ones? Granted, there's the extension cord thing, but if your yard is sufficiently small...

You don’t have an angle grinder?
WTF?
I do not. My local Ace Hardware charges $15 I think...

Put the money towards an electric mower? I really like not having to do jack squat as far as maintenance goes. I do get the blade sharpened once a decade. :homer:
I bought a new mower because it was hard to find blades for my old one (15 year old black and decker). Other than buying new cords every 5 years or so, it's pretty sweet.

I do not miss my dad having us pick up rocks in the yard....

My Greenworks 25" dual blade electric mower is great. I usually use about 120 Wh mowing everything. More if it's super high or wet, but that just shows my bad judgment if those conditions are true.

'Cause you run them over?

My cords have lasted through three kids... although there are a *few* repairs on one of them. :D
Mine get stretched out, mostly. I've actually never ran one over and I grew up mowing electric. Dad was smart enough to not have gas around the house with me and my brother, smart move.
