I'm no expert on this stuff, but from what I've seen, most ICE mowers have
blades with fairly aggressive lift. OTOH, ET blades are flat. I'd guess
that the ICE blades would need significantly more power (and use more
energy).
IIRC, someone on this list was experiementing with ICE-type blades on the
ET
some years back. (Gator brand maybe?) Anyone recall the outcome of that
test?
