Electric push mower
« on: November 16, 2006, 04:40:10 AM »
My wife has one, unssed this year just sucking up on its

charger and annoying me to see wasting away.


Its got electric motor and controls, a battery, good bearings and

a blade to mount to...


Wondering about its obvious other uses if anyone can think of a

why not or advise on how to.

Seems to me that this has come up before, the motor is a real high speed unit so would not be a good choice for a wind turbine, but don't let that stop you from trying it!

    I have tried this twice, and the gearing eats up  for too much

power.  

    But then again, maybe I missed something obvious. (happened before)
