[QUOTE="KOPBET, post: 3761258, member: 4153"] I had/have an older Honda gas push mower that the wife (she likes to mow) could not start because she couldn't operate the pull cord so I would have to start it for her. After mowing for a while and it got hot, it would no longer start until it had cooled somewhat. A regular PITA. Not to mention it made the nasty fumes. I bought her/us a Kobalt 80v cordless walk behind from Lowes that has a 5 ah battery and a charger accessory. She loves it. It will usually do the front and back on a single charge, unless the [S]grass[/S] weeds get too high. It will rev up speed under heavier loads so it doesn't bog down. Unfortunately the increased speed comes with a battery life penalty. I have since bought a cordless weed trimmer and leaf blower that use the same 80v system but with smaller 2.5 ah batteries (which will also work in the mower if needed). Don't need a self propelled one (fairly light weight), and that would drastically reduce the battery run time. [/QUOTE]
