Lawn & Garden Batteries
Lawn and garden equipment have come a long way in recent years. With an emphasis on being more eco-friendly, there are plenty of electrical options that provide just as much power as the old-school gasoline powered devices. For example, it used to be that an electric hedge trimmer wouldn’t cut as well as its gas-powered equivalent, but now these batteries are much improved, so the lawn equipment is lighter and easier to start.
It is not just handheld items that boast this ease of use. The lawn tractor battery makes cutting the grass easier and cheaper than ever. Charging the batteries is quite easy, and a 12-volt lawn mower battery can provide just as good of a cut as a gas-powered mower. Some mowers use these batteries to start engines, but regardless, the batteries are so much more efficient today.
When looking for a lawn and garden battery, the best place for the search is Sam’s Club®. With our wide selection of batteries, it is easy for the amateur landscaper to get the best equipment and in turn replicate professional results.
Why Should Homeowners Use Electric Lawn Equipment?
The biggest advantage of electric lawn equipment is its friendliness to the environment. Gas-powered devices require using oil and the exhaust goes into the atmosphere. Green devices are a great way to truly have a green thumb. Whether it is hedge trimmers, weed eaters or edgers, these devices can go a long way towards lowering a homeowner’s carbon footprint.
The more practical advantage is these devices are lighter and easier to maintain. A major problem for a gas-powered device is how the vibration of the motor can loosen different parts of the housing. Another issue is when the gaskets break down and there are other problems with the motors. Electric lawn equipment does not have any of these issues.
Since the batteries are light, they are easy to take off and recharge. The lighter equipment is easier to use and maintain. The lack of a gas-powered engine means there are less moving parts that need maintenance. Simply put, purchasing electric lawn equipment is a great way to save money over the long haul.
What are Some Important Features in Garden Batteries?
The key feature is battery life. For an electric lawn mower, it must have enough power to do the whole lawn on a single charge. Having to start and stop was a major problem with older electric models, but not as much today. That said, if your yard is large and you have a smaller push mower, it won’t be as easy to cut the grass on a single charge. Make sure that you have the right size equipment for your yard.
Another consideration is the ease of charging. It is important to store electric lawn equipment in the garage or a basement. Storing this equipment in the shed could lead to it being corroded due to a shed’s inability to keep moisture out.
A great idea is setting up a charging station in the garage for the batteries and having hooks for the different equipment. This allows ease of use and less problems with storage.
