About $70 I think. I didn't have to deal with buying an extra battery, cause my original mower was stolen out of my garage. I keep the battery inside to prevent temperature degradation, so I still had it when I bought another mower with the battery included.

Before that I'd just mow half, and do other yardwork while the battery was charging.

I bought it after getting tired of having to fix my old gas mower. The pull cord broke, then the mechanism that it attaches to broke, then the priming bulb cracked and started leaking gas, having to go get gas for it, etc... the electric just works. I don't have to winterize or fuck with the carburetor, I just press the button and it works. It's more powerful than my old mower, doesn't bog down if I skip mowing for a week. It's better in every way.

They never do. It's always these outrageous headlines, but they never actually harm anything.

"Just Stop Oil HORRIFICALLY DEFACES STONEHENGE!"

No, actually they put gentle water washable biodegradable paint on it. It disappeared after the first light mist.

Because they love everything from China. Woks, genocide, pollution, capitalism, murdering protesters, they love it all.

Also, if you have mini blinds made in the 70s, they're full of lead

It was behind glass. A janitor had to take some Windex to it. The horror!

I saw the Grumman LLV mail truck in the thumbnail and just assumed US. I had no idea you guys used them too. Neat!

That's good, cause it's very clearly not a real post. Just someone who made some AI images for lulz.

Wasn't he a character in House of Cards? Before we found out about Kevin Spacey's shady shit?

It wooshed me on the first read, I probably wouldn't have gotten the joke if your comment didn't make me do a double take 🙂

I have 1/3rd acre, takes 2 batteries to mow uninterrupted. Anything bigger than that I hope it's not just grass, that's a waste of space.

Flipping it over is often the correct way to drain the oil.
