Electric Vehicles are a key part of our tomorrow and how we get there. If we can get all the fossil fuel vehicles off our roads, out of our seas and out of our skies, we'll have a much better environment. This community is where we discuss the various different vehicles and news stories regarding electric transportation.

I had nothing but headaches from my old gas/oil weed whacker. When I replaced it with a battery one, the only issue I had was that the included battery didn't last nearly long enough. 1.5Ah battery included, but I fixed the problem by buying a compatible 4.0Ah battery, and the 1.5 was still available for the little leaf blower included (double pack for only like $100) to clean up after if the main job totally drained the big battery.
Soon, we'll see lawn mower roombas get affordable enough for more people. I'm looking forward to that. Fuck yardwork lol.
Electric is fine for lawnmowers too, but there's similar issue with range. Obviously you can just buy more batteries and swap them out, you're just at home anyway, so it's not like that's going to be a problem.
Those robot lawnmowers are the dream though.
