Kobalt 40V Self Propelled Mower Power Test

[@davehicklin3387]

I have one that looks identical. You really put it to the test being in the lowest blade setting and quite high grass, weeds etc. I am impressed. Good video.

Thanks!

Would you recommend this for someone who is new to electric mowers and has about a 7,500 sq ft lawn? I've been maintaining and using the same Toro gas mower since 2002.. now the piston rings are bad so I'm looking to move to something easier to maintain. Plus I have a Kobalt 40v chainsaw so I do have an extra battery.

7500 square feet may be pushing it for this mower,unless you are always right on time with your mowing schedule and never let it get out of control, having the extra battery would definitely help and if you plan on adding to your kobalt line could even get more batteries to even go further. I would consider possibly going with one of the Ego power + mowers that are rated for a bit longer per charge like this one POWER+ Select Cut 56-volt 21-in Cordless Self-propelled 7.5 Ah (1 Batteries and Charger Included) www.lowes.com/pd/EGO-Push-Mower-56-Volt-Brushless-Lithium-Ion-Self-Propelled-21-in-Cordless-Electric-Lawn-Mower/1003171264 that has a 60 minute runtime plus right now comes with an extra battery.

Awesome thanks!

Does it really last 45 minutes, (on flat terrain)?

[@WilliamsonRidge]

Not sure yet but I will have a video coming on running the battery from full to dead

[@mics3747]

Did you only make one video about the Milwaukee M18 mower? How do the run times of these two mowers compare? Thanks.

[@WilliamsonRidge]

I have a few videos on it, this is a runtime video kzbin.info/www/bejne/kHO7louwnseZnsk and here is the playlist with all the Milwaukee mower videos kzbin.info/aero/PLkbA593aAXMB3-ZLZxLhMJkxALg1fn8vT

The mower is too low, better start in a higher setting and help the machine a little....this is with any mower specially the battery powered..!!!

[@RD-ce6bb]

Good mower👍

[@marthawilliams1253]

When turning the mower i guess the best thing to do is drop the self propelled lever?

[@WilliamsonRidge]

Yeah if you don’t it’s dragging you or you have to really speed up to make a turn

[@Visions4uLLC]

Probably would have worked better from start with the deck adjusted

I'm on my 3rd kobalt 40v mower in 11 months. If it was not for the warranty I would buy something else. These are not built well and under powered. At first I loved it, now I know they are flawed.

[@davehicklin3387]

I hope I don't end up feeling like do now. Mine will only be used for trim and close spots if I ever get my riding mower out of the shop?

[@robbiegolding1831]

U gotta raise the wheels on grass that high bro. There's nowhere to process all that grass when it's set to scalp. Common sense bro

[@WilliamsonRidge]

Thanks for the info
