mowed the lawn ( ok a portion of it ) for the first time today

filled about half of the 2.5 bushel bag with grass clippings and the battery indicator barely budged

i only had two 5 amp hour batteries in the mower ( versus two 12 amp hour it can take ) and i only charged them to about 80% before mowing but they were still at about 80% when i finished

which makes me feel stupid because two 10 amp hour batteries are coming in the mail tomorrow LOL

of course you need to multiply amp hours by volts to get watt hours. EGO batteries are 56 Volts nominal ( about 50V actual ).

the 5 amp-hour batteries i have installed right now are genuine EGO. the 10 amp hour coming tomorrow are bootleg ( and actually cost less than the genuine 5 amp hours ).

not yet sure how it will all pan out in the end. genuine EGO batteries couldn't be opened without destroying the packaging. hope the bootlegs can be.

technically 300 watt hours ( or 5 amp hours for 56V ego ) is the largest size that can be returned by mail in US. this is why i went for 5 amp / hr size. but the Bootleg ones are sold by some Chinese seller on Amazon that advertised 30 day return for the 10 amp / hr so it will be interesting to see how it will all end ...

obviously i don't need all 4 batteries. i originally ordered both because i thought the bootlegs will take forever to ship, while genuine batteries shipped overnight.

but now i'm thinking maybe the genuine batteries is all i actually need. maybe i don't need 10 KWH.

the genuine 5 amp hours were not only at same level at end of the mow but were not even warm.
