The ad in the flyer said it generated a whole house full of power and showed it driven over to the house and transfer cord hooked into the house. A 6500 watt generator couldn't do that, but it is a cool concept and that should generate enough power for a decent sized electric mower.

Take one of these to the track and get power where you need it.

And YES, the answer to the question on everyone's lips, it does have a cup holder.

Someone on the Garage Journal board bought one of those recently and really likes it.

The guy that gave the review on Lowe's website liked the concept, but not the execution. Poor fitting panels, no name motor, have to get off the mower and change speeds under the mower.

damn 70 minutes on battery only? I could mow my lawn without starting the engine.

looks kinda tall, i'd be worried it would roll over on my hill.

Kinda cool that it can double as a generator too.
