what is the battery life of the earthwise cordless mower
1552586
In case the question dealt with cycle life, it seems to be an hour or so, depending on grass density. For my small lawn, that's a couple mowings per charge, with a bit to spare.

Living in Florida I use the mower year round and my first battery lasted almost 3 years.

I have found the battery life to be almost precisely 3 years. Both myself and a neighbor of mine purchased this mower within 1-2 months of eachother and we both had to replace the battery within 1 month of the 3 year anniversary.

The two batteries inside are "6-dzm-20" type batteries. I got replacement 20ah batteries from ChromeBattery for $40 each. Take 8 screws off to remove the battery box lid. Take a picture of the "wiring" (pretty basic, very hard to screw up) and unscrew and remove the batteries. Drop in the new ones, reconnect using the screws and nuts that come with the battery, and reattach the lid. Drop the battery in and you have a 20ah battery for half the cost.

First battery lasted 4 full Virginia seasons with a small lot, getting pretty weak during the 5th, but I limped through that one as well. The second is starting its third season and seems pretty peppy yet. My garage doesn't get below 35 degrees over the winter, and I give the unit a mid-winter charge each year (the manual recommends after about 4-6 weeks, I think)

The original battery was great until winter when I brought it in. My mistake, I left it plugged in. So I purchased a replacement and I'm going on 2 years.

I ended three years of use four months ago and my battery is now dying out as well. I used to finish my lawn with one charge, now it takes two. I am contemplating the purchase of another battery, but at $149 it is definitely causing some sticker shock.

Mine is now on its 3rd season and it's definitely lost a bit of power. Just read the instructions and follow them and it seems fine. These are lead acid batteries like in a car, so if you leave them in the cold and don't ever charge them, they won't work when you need them. I'm in Michigan, so cold winters are a thing. I bring the battery in for the winter and plug it in once a month like the instructions say and it's been going quite well. I assume next year I might need a new one, but 4 years of mowing with no gas doesn't seem too bad.

The battery life will depend on several things. The manufacturer recommends removing the battery during the winter months, keep it in a warm area and monthly recharge it. I didn't do this and so I had to replace the battery after only one season. This battery is too expensive to replace so treat it like a baby and you may get several seasons of battery life.

I'm on my 4th summer using this battery. It lasts at least 3 mowing days on my yard. It takes me about 45 minutes to finish.

no problem charging on US electric. the grass catcher stays on very well during use, but comes off with nearly no effort when you need to empty iy. the blades have not gotten stuck on me yet under electric power, but when using as a non powered push mower they do bind up from time to time in thick grass. I have no idea where to get the battery. i did see one here on amazon for $150 (wow). I do need a second battery as the main battery is not enough to cover my whole lawn. i get about 2.3 of it done. i don't know the exact size of my lawn but it is typically about an hour mow from start to finish

The self propelled mower takes a car type battery is heavy and takes a long time to charge.I think this one is a better value for the motor alone even though one of the batteries is just 2Ah.also not self propelled.GreenWorks 2500502 DigiPro G-MAX 40V Cordless Lawn Mower, 19-Inch

I would say 3 to 4 hours on a full charge. It's a great tool. Also has hedge trimmer that is light weight and does a great job on light to medium weight plants and shrubs.

Melanie, truthfully I don't know. Purchased this along with the blower. So now I have two batteries in case I'm trying andI need a recharge. These are a tad heavier than regular electric trimmers, but can trim without hesitation in a rainy environmentand don't have to get out cord. Depending on your use, I would expect 2-3 years out of them. Don't know for sure, threw allpaperwork away. I use them all the time on hollies and regular hedge and have been well pleased with their positives as Imentioned before. Much better than the old Black and Decker cordless I used to have. Hope this helps. Dr. Speck Melanie, truthfully I don't know. Purchased this along with the blower. So now I have two batteries in case I'm trying andI need a recharge.

The Earthwise blower is rated at 140CFM whereas my Toro AC electric blower is rated at 220CFM. I did a Google search and the Earthwise blower is rated at 206CFM. The Earthwise blower is great for a small job. I use it to blow leaves from my deck. The battery usually lasts for two uses of about 5 minutes each.

The battery lasts quite a while it was charged in January use it in June but I only use it as a hedge trimmer when I did use it lasted about two hours

I have the 25312 19 inch mower with two 4ah batteries. Each battery will last me about a half-hour of mowing or more. For me that is enough to mow my grass with only one battery. I would think that if the grass is very high and thick it might not last as long as it seems to give more power when needed.

I have B&D cordless mower for 7 years. I am happy with it. The battery life could be short. 2 years is what they expect. My first battery last about 2 years. Then, it died. It was changed in service station for a new one. This one has lasted 4 years (5 seasons). But, the running time gets shorter and shorter, then the time is stable and is about 1/2 of the original running time. But, that is good enough for me since I mow front and rear separately. The problem is: now one front wheel got lost. Seems no way to repair. It still mows though. I am thinking to replace it. It might be M&D. However, I am thinking about Neuton Mower. It seems better but more expensive.

The battery life is based on the number of times you cycle it, minimum of 500, but should get 1000. The build quality is above average for an offshore product, the weakest component will be the switch, treat it right and you will get the life out of it. See my review for more detailed comments and suggestions for improvement.

It depends on the size of your yard. Mine is very small, so I'm able to cut my grass 3 times on a charge. If you treat the battery correctly [by following the instructions on use and charging] it should last you a very long time. The battery for my string trimmer has lasted 6 years! When you buy the mower, you get two batteries, which is really nice. It is true that the batteries are rather expensive to replace, but far cheaper than all the gas and oil needed to run a gas mower, in my very humble opinion! :-) I also recycle all my batteries to stay "green". Hope this helps

yes to both. Agree with previous comment about the battery life. Mine no longer holds a good charge. It also doesn't go too low so it won't cut shorter grass. Overall, is not very good.

this is a good cordless drill, battery life depends on how hard you work it !!!!!!!!!!!

I haven't timed it but it holds a charge for at least 2 hours of constant trimming I use it to cut my whole front & back yard grass & trim the edges twice before recharging hope that helps :)

I own several GreenWorks tools, and both the 2amp and 4amp batteries. It depends on what tool you are using the battery in. I can mow my entire yard on a 4amp battery. It would probably take two 2amp batteries to do the job. I can trim and blow off the mowed area on one 2amp battery, with some time to spare. The tools that are a bit more power hungery, like a hedger, run through the batteries faster.My best guess is 30-45 minutes on a 2amp battery, but that varies with the tool being used.David

At least 20 minutes. It seems Greenworks has figured out the battery thing. I had a Roybi 18V and its run time was 10 - 15 minutes. This runs much stronger and longer.
