A couple of years ago, before I converted it to Lion batteries, I strapped an 1800W inverter generator, variac, step down transformer and a big rectifier on my ET.  I found that I could mow in LL on level ground pretty much indefinitely, at around 1800Watts.  The old batteries were really bad, only helped a little for a short time. Even shorter if I tried to run in L gear.
