(ET) and speaking of ETs: E-15 for sale

[Max Hall <maxo iname com>]

...Boston-area ET-er Joel P. and I (Max Hall) put together a donation of an E-15 to a local institution for plowing and mowing. As sometimes happens, the end user wasn't entirely satisfied going electric, and so we are moving to Plan B, which is to sell this beauty and give the money to the institution instead.

So, we have an E-15 with a front mower deck and a plow (Craftsman 44" with a bracket welded up by yours truly). It has some corrosion at the bases of the battery boxes, and it has some touch-up paint, but otherwise it is a beautiful original example of an E-15. The controls are crisp, there's no mouse-pee-acid damage to the electronics; it even comes with the original black plastic battery *cover* trays (not box bottoms... they go on top of the batteries, and the terminals poke through -- I had never seen those things before this machine). I replaced the capacitor in the charger with an old spare I had, and the charging seems to be A-ok. It comes with batteries; a mongrel set of Trojan T-105s in about the middle of their useful lifetimes. The control lever moves crisply, the microswitches click like no other machine I've had the pleasure to run... it's a peach.

The plan is to photograph the heck out of it and put it up on eBay... but, time is money ("Time is money, my little sonny; and a rich man's joke is always funny.") so if any of you wants to contact me about further details (proceeds to a wonderful educational non-profit, I remind you!) to buy before all of that, for the E-15, mower deck, and plow with bracket, including tire chains, please do.

Best to all in this fine minimized-emission community,
