Just finished my first Spring pass at the yard using my new Ego Lawn Mower and Blower. I charged the batteries yesterday with the shed system I installed in January. And then recharged the depleted batteries after working for a couple of hours. Yesterday was sunny, but today was mostly cloudy, so I was interested how things would go after working with them today. After an hour the tool batteries are fully charged, and the 12V 100AH SOK LifeP04 is back to 100%! I did not expect that! And the tools work great, I don't smell like gas, and neither does my shed!
Here are some pics of my set up from yesterday, which was nice and sunny:
I built an insolated box for the battery and put a 12W 12V heating pad under it, controlled by a thermostat, which easily kept it between 5 and 10 degrees Celsius on coldest days this winter. If anyone is interested, here is the list of equipment I used for this installation:
