Hi, all,
man, what a great series of posts on batteries,
charging, and temperature. I'm sure a lot of you are typing or reading the
same things over by now, but I just keep on soaking up them good data. I'm
humbled and happy to be on the list, as ever.
I have worked hard to keep my snowthrower
throwing over the last couple of years, and am, by and large, very, very happy
to have the thing. I doooo wonder, though, about the simple efficacy of a plow
blade. Up here near Boston, we get light fluffy snow from time to time (more
rare) and that is a dream to throw. (Thanks to the cold weather we had about
3" of the lightest stuff you've ever seen. It seemed like Utah, or
fake snow from the movies. I got to run the tractor at its highest speed while
throwing snow without taking the current draw gauge into the yellow.
Unprecedented for me.) Mostly we get wet heavy stuff, though, and I have
worked hard on my dynamic speed-tuning snowthrowing technique to avoid
clogging. And it still clogs, despite waxes, paints, Pam, lucky charms,
etc.
Someone just posted about trying a plow and never
going back... So how about plows and heavy snow? Particularly, how deep a wet
snow can you plow?
Mid-winter and grinnin'
