I just bought an electric lawnmower and I am as happy as can be with it. It is so light, it doesn't make the *lines* that it usually makes with the other. I have had the others yard tools with batteries/chargers for a long time now. I have to say that all of them have been good to me *and* they seem to get less abuse than the gas. 

I had 6 gas cans. Seems every time I needed one, I didn't have it right there.  I couldn't find a Goodwill/Salvation Army that would take them, so I put a sign on them that said *Free* and someone picked them up and took them away. 

I just went in and cut the berries back. They didn't seem to mind it. They were encroaching everywhere. They choked out some irises too. Asparagus is a much better deal. The gift that keeps giving. 

That lake does look refreshing... but, it may have *things* down there! :)  Enjoy your day, it looks like a good one! You are such a consistant stepper!

Battery electric mowers are wonderful.  I used to have one that ran off a power cord but that got to be kind of difficult after a bit.  It was also noisier than the one I have now.

The new mower used to run a lot more off the low power mode but it runs mostly on high power mode now.  Maybe it needs to have the blades sharpened or something.  It still seems quieter in high power mode than other mowers I have used.

Thank you and enjoy your day as well!

The one I have is pretty quiet and perhaps the battery needs to be replaced? Or the blades - you are probably right. I was surprised by how easy it is to sharpen blades with a rasp. Of course, I think the mulching blades I still bring in. The shape is beyond my skillset. 

I never thought I would like an electric mower, but, I can see how awesome they are and so much better for our environment.
