Ryobi 18V BRUSHLESS MOWER vs Ryobi 36V BRUSHLESS MOWER (australian models) review

[@kimuoi85]

Thanks Ned. I just picked up the $799 36v from Bunnings. Might have considered the self propelled version but I’ve seen it’s got that delay to engage the self propelled motor which was a turn off.

Hi, thanks for watching the video....there is a review on that 36v mower, check it out, i point out on some of the issues i had with height adjustment on it and how i solved it. Enjoy the mower its a powerhouse...

[@MrStubat]

The delay takes about an hours use to not notice. You merely just start physically pushing it as you engage it and the first metre it will engage.

Hi i got the 18v, running on 2 6ah battery, cutting a bit of the thicker grass like buffalo and weed looking grass. It doesnt last more than 25mins or so.. dry condition and not too long as well

[@Nedstooltalk]

Hi, yer battery mowers are not best in buffalo grass, maybe 36v would have been better choice for you.

Great comparison video!

[@mrw3440]

thanks for the comparison. You didnt say anything about run time though - how many square meters each of them were suitable for?

[@Nedstooltalk]

Hi, thanks fpr watching the video. Reason i dont mention runtimes is there is to many variables, battery size, condition of mower blades, thickness of grass, height of grass.....but i have about 260 m2 of lawn and 36v mower has no issues with it, 18v one gets trough it but 2 5ah batteries are on last legs....hope that helps

[@robinkarlsten4952]

@@Nedstooltalk Great numbers for comparison! What size of battery are you using in the 36V? And approximately how much battery is left after one sweep of your lawn?

[@Nedstooltalk]

@@robinkarlsten4952 2 x 6ah batteries i use always. Depanding on condition of lawn ill end up with 1-2 bars of both batteries. You can run it on 4ah battries but it wont perform as good as it will with 6ah.

[@robinkarlsten4952]

@@Nedstooltalk I'm looking at a kit with 2x6 Ah. Seems to be quite well suited for me then. I have about 750-800 m2. Thanks for the help, man!
