@@TylerMiller-nz9onexpect around 40-50 mins on a 6ah battery but that is usually running with no load, on normal conditions 30 mins is ideal. Running 2 batteries same time gives it a slight power boost but doesn't increase runtime, If you need endurance, use single battery one after another, if needing performance then use 2 together. Considering 36v batteries are pricey, not many ppl will have 2 batteries on deck but if you do, i believe better to have longer runtime than extra power

I have the 36V 46cm brushless model with the 5ah brick battery. I have a buffalo lawn and with the lawn at the height you mowed it struggles doing a first pass at high setting. It is difficult to push through the longer grass, something not quite right with the design as the front seems to dig in. The shute keeps blocking up to the catcher if grass is slightly moist and the catcher drags its backside on the ground to the point it is wearing through. Only good for a much shorter kept lawns in my opinion. I like the spongy lawn underfoot and the 36 year old old four stroke Rover still does it easily.

When it struggles is with long, wet, mossy growth after winter. Then I'll need to charge halfway and take it slow, and I'll line trim the long parts first. Charger is fast though so no worries.

I have a Stihl electric mower and am dreading mowing the lawn once the rains have done their thing. I love my mower, but the thick, wet buffalo is really going to test it! When you've done a few of these reviews would you consider doing a compilation video and compare a variety of brands? Lawnmowers, whipper snippers, blade edgers, hedge trimmers and whatever else comes up. I have mostly Stihl products & am interested in how they compare with others. With electric stuff you're kinda stuck with one brand unless you're prepared to buy all the batteries - which gets a bit expensive. I started with Ryobi, but their whipper snipper sucked so I jumped ship early. Still have their mini hedge trimmer and lawn clippers which come in handy.

Good video mate. I have use of the ecoteq 60inch commercial ride on, one thing about them is you have to preserve that battery throughout the day, some areas are thicker than others so even the ride on struggles to go through thick areas or even elastic grass, so sometimes a day of mowing can be drastically reduced because of a ridiculous thickness in the lawns especially after rain, so you have to monitor it like a hawk, where as petrol/diesel you run out, you can fill up and be back mowing within 5/10 mins, but with electric you can't go any further for the day, and the charge takes 8-12 hours. Bloody frustrating in the commercial world. Unless you are mowing the same areas by the third or fourth day, which is impossible for us as a thick summer mow would take us 6/7 days

I have a Ryobi CLT1830, 2012 model. Have been using it almost 10 yrs myself. Loved it from the first time I used it. Way easier to handle than even a lighter petrol trimmer. Came with a 1.4 battery that is also still going. Bought 2nd hand off gumtree, one of those thing you buy just to try one. Head has tilt adjustment, handle has length adjustment. Has only 1 string. Easy to load string like a sewing machine bobbin. I thought it would not do too much. Well, I have not mixed 2 stroke fuel since I bought it. Great for edging, tilt the head, flip it over as you see done in this video, no worries. (I will say though, I did develop the same technique after a short time, of mowing first, then trimming, being easier on the trimmer and easier to see where to cut.) The trimmer is small and light and I have no idea how it is still going, but it is. Use mainly with 2.5 and 5ah batteries. The 5ah gives it a bit more torque and you can easily hear the difference in performance as you use it. Used on other houses for family members as well, so it gets a fair amount of work! For heavy going, I bought a heavier Victa, maybe 32 volt that was too aggressive to do the edging but a wild slasher for the heavy grass that gets overgrown. It has a large battery, Briggs & Stratton style that lasted just about 7 years. Loved using it, heaps of power, no mixing fuel 👍 Sticking to the petrol mower though for sure.

It looks phenomenal but if I dare try to cut lower on setting #4 for example it bogs and will not cut thru all the stolons and thickness…. It’s only been thru 2 seasons of proper lawn care since I moved into the house and I primarily use 2SpecElevate as my fertiliser. Reckon the 2Spec is making it grow too thick or is it just getting great water/sunlight for it to grow so thick?

Love your videos, have you used the Victa contractor mower range and if so what did you think of it?

I haven't! I reached out to them but no reply. They did follow me on instagram the other day so maybe one day

It would be awesome to get your opinion on their contractor range as I’m considering getting the 19” commercial mower .

@@aussieadventurestimetoplay hitting the edge with the last couple mms of the line is the way to not run through a bunch of line. You've got a good snipper, just need a steady hand and some patience, practice on lines you wont see as often, work on using the least amount of line as possible to just hit blades of grass for starters.

Double cut?🥴 Triple cut?😵💫 = bzzzzt! FAIL. I really wanted a battery mower. By the time battery mowers are up to what I need one to do, -> billiard table low cut finish, single pass, my $1100 three week old 190cc, quad swing back blade, power mulcher, alloy deck 19" self propelled will be five years old and easily last another 10 years. I wish manufacturers would get serious with battery mowers. Excellent video though thank you. 😉

Electric is so nice. No smelly fumes, less noise pollution, lighter and easier to use. And dead batteries can be recycled. Perfectly suitable for most suburbanites not mowing acres every week

Why going over the lawn 4 times? Forward and backward then you trim the edges then you go over the same area again forward and backward that is 4 times in total for every area you cut. I only go over mine just once with my petrol mower.
