RE: (ET) Battery Powered Push Mowers



This is mainly for Dennis, but it may inspire thought from others.....

Would a corded mower not be usable?

How about a cordless or corded weedeater. I have a B&D Grasshog corded
weedeater and 2 150' extension cords. This will be my third season with 
this
weedeater. With a cordless I could see a mount on the ET to carry it with
you.

Or how about an invertor on your ET to run all kinds of "cheap" tools.
Drills, saws, weedeaters, whatever.  I would think the cost of a new
cordless mower would be close to the cost of pretty good sized invertor.

I don't have an ET. I plan to convert an old gasser soon though if I can't
find one.

To the group;

My gas powered push mower might have one season left in it, so I would like
to get a head start with some opinions from anyone on replacing it with a
battery powered push mower.

I am looking at strictly a small walk behind type for trimming around areas
that the tractor won't get to.

Anyone that owns a battery powered push mower and what you think of it ?
  Brand, voltage, weight, cutting time, ease of use, reliability ?

New mowers that are offered for sale ?

Old mowers that are no longer made, but that may be better quality than
anything new offered now ?

If the old mowers are the best choice this will give me time to keep an eye
open at the garage sales, flea markets this summer.

Thanks;
Dennis
