RE: (ET) how many feet of lane can be blown on a charge

["Elie, Larry (L.D.)" <lelie ford com>]

Two hours of normal snow, 1.5 hours of wet snow, 3 hours of powder on an 
E12 with 42" blower in 20 deg F weather.  Those are maximums.  I can go to 
my father's house (<1/4 mile) in normal snow, blow his drive, and recharge 
for the return trip.  Deep and wet snow (I had once) where the snow is 
deeper than the blower; 40 minutes, LL.  My drive is 244' long, 10' wide, 
it barely did it that time.  You can push snow with a blade a lot longer 
than you can blow it.

Here's a question for the people with
Elec-Traks with snow blowers:

How many feet of laneway can be blow on one charge?

I know that light snowfall, medium snowfall,
and heavy snowfall will take different amounts of charge.
