I've read that a 12 Amp corded electric mower maxes out at about 1.5 hp . That seems to jibe well with 1 hp = about 746 watts, if you allow some 'loss' thru a long cord and motor efficiency I guess. (theoretical is around 1.9hp)
say my GW twinforce hits some tall grass and kicks into 'high power' mode. What is the power available? or, what power is being used just before 'stall'?
seems to me, whether it's my GW 40V mower or some other more recent generation of cordless electric, they could be built to deliver more 'power' than any typical corded electric, and the 'potential' exists to match or even out power a small gas mower. At least on an 'as needed' basis with a load sensing mode.
any power or wattage ratings for cordless electrics?
