Default Electric Lawn Mowers

I purchased an Electric Craftsman 19" It seems to work fine for now...

Oh come ON! If you get the correct extension cord, IE: 12 or 14 guage for
100' (go by the spects in the owner's manual), then the mower will have
enough power. If you use a lighter guage cord, then the mower will

overheat
and could quit working. I have a B&D electric and it works fine with

plenty
of power.

The issue I see with a battery operated one, is when you have to replace

the
batteries in a couple of years, you might as well replace the whole mower,
them things ain't cheap.
On the other hand, managing a cord can be a pain...

Are you familiar with rechargeable lawnmowers?


how can dragging an electrical extension cord behind a lawn mower be
simple? the
more cord you have, less power the motor gets and less power to cut

taller
grass.

thats simple .
