Went electric

1quarter acre isn't much. How many ah?

I think it’s like 6 or 8 AH. It just amazed me I used last years charge and I still had juice

i think lithium doesn't really discharge when not in use.

i picked up an 18v ryobi mower and the kid i pay to mow around my 47 trees (rider too big now as they are growing) takes about an hour and into the 4th battery. They are 4 ah. I do have a six want to try that. The 9's are just too much for me to justify something i'm going to only use for the next couple htree years. They should be grown enough to just skim with a weedeater.

Now the 4ah on the weedeater can do all those trees and the drive and about 1/2 acre of fence and still have juice.

I did order an aftermarket high lift blade for my Stihl, works much better on the real thick grass. Happy with the mower happy with the battery life.
