Did you know that there is a more environmentally friendly way to cut your grass than your common gas mower? Like the increasingly popular electric cars, electric lawn mowers also exist and can significantly reduce your carbon footprint. Electric lawn mowers are new on the market, but are growing in popularity.
These new electric lawn mowers are all push mowers and are ideal for smaller yards. They are much better for the environment, easy to clean, and they won't cost you a fortune on gas. And though electric lawn mowers are currently not available as riding mowers, these will probably be on the market in no time.
Small Riding Lawn Mowers
Most home owners with electric lawn mowers say the primary reason for choosing electric was environmental consciousness. Experts say that mowing your lawn for about an hour with a regular, gas powered mower causes more air pollution than driving a car for 150 miles. Electric mowers use substantially less energy to operate, so there is much less drain on the environment.
Another benefit to having an electric lawn mower versus gas run is that you won't have to worry about pulling away on a cord to get it started. Electric mowers are turned on with the push of a button. Electric lawnmowers also do not require tuning or oil changes. They are also silent compared to most roaring gas mowers.
Electric mowers are powered using a plug and draw their energy from an electrical outlet. In this way, using an electric lawn mower is just like using a vacuum cleaner in your home. However, like with a vacuum cleaner, electric mowers have the problem of dragging a cord behind. Sometimes the cord is not long enough to get where you need to go, so you have to stop your work and switch. This can be a hassle. The good news is there is a new brand of cordless electric mowers out now which use a rechargeable battery. This solves the problem of lugging a cord around your yard.
Cordless electric mowers use 1 to 4 rechargeable 12-volt batteries. Most are more expensive than both gas mowers and electric mowers with a cord, but there are some cheaper options out there. Plus, you are not having to spend money on gas or maintenance, so you'll save in the long-run.
Depending on what model you get, cordless electric mowers may also come with a mulch plate. The plate is handy because it allows you to use the mower to mulch your grass in addition to just cutting it. Check to see if the cordless electric mower you are interested in comes with this feature.
If you are interested in getting an electric mower, be it cordless or not, be sure to check customer reviews. Since these mowers are relatively new on the market, it is difficult to say what types of problems they may face over time. The best way to find out about these is to hear what actual owners are saying.
