@OldHouseRenovation Ай бұрын
I went through four dumpsters. All incurred overweight charges yes that is heavy and it’s a shame to take it down but when you have to do the wiring and plumbing, it’s a trade-off. I am happy that we saved quite a few of the plaster walls and ceilings.

I understand. People that like electric lawnmowers usually have a lot of batteries and all the other tools such as the shop vac, blower, weed whip. If I had only one battery,, I would not use it.
@jamesa6080 3 ай бұрын
I find if you run it at the fastest speed and the grass is pretty tall it will drain a battery in 25 minutes or so but I started to just use the self propelled mode when needed and let momentum do the rest and I get double the use. Although now it dies if I use the self propelled mode at all so now it’s a push mower 😢

Only one problem. The replacement blade you buy a Home Depot that says it is for a 40 volt 20 inch lawnmower is to long and does not fit under the mower. Son and I both bought one for our mowers and neither one of us could make it fit. Worked for a local school district for 35 tears doing grounds maintenance I have changed a blade or two. The damn thing does not fit it is to long. I returned it.
@OldHouseRenovation 5 ай бұрын
The older Ryobi electric line Morris used 20 inch and smaller blades. The newer lawnmowers are used 21+ blades. You may not be able to find the 20 inch on the shelf, but if you order it online and have it delivered to your home or store that that works out well at Home Depot. Thanks for sharing.
