I was in Home Depot in Billings a few weeks ago and saw a zero turn mower that was electric. I thought wth.
For a little lawn, I would buy an electric push mower. We've had them for 10 + years and I love them. Bought the first one so my wife didn't have to deal with filling gas cans and mowers while I was off working for months at a time. We had a reel type old school push mower but it wouldn't cut the lawn in the rental my wife had then. I'd stick with those if we didn't have rocks and pebbles coming out of the ground here every rain/frost cycle. I don't have to mow acres, and if I did I hear there are these things called "livestock" that I could eat when their done keeping the "lawn" mowed.

This is #1 about noise. Old Progressive retirees don't like the noise. In the most trendy, progressive neighborhoods here in town, the homeowners bitch endlessly about the noise of the lawn crews with their leaf blowers. Not that these Progressive liberals could ever cut their own lawns.
Secondary goal is to eliminate all the 2 cycle engines they think are environmentally unfriendly. Their excuse is noise. They want everything electric. there are a lot of lazy ass overweight lawn crew guys that gin up a lot of hours making dust storms... when I was a kid we just used to take a pass down the edge of the street and either edge of the driveway with the zero turn and the breeze out the grass port would take care of 95 percent of the cuttings.

The illegal immigrant gardeners are running gas machines when they could run electric, because some home owners do not provide electrical outlets. If the homeowners were taxed pennies for the noise, the electricity would be provided. The average price of a home in my city [suburb of Seattle] is $2.4M. The city could easily regulate gardeners. They have strict licensing and regulation of arborists. It does not take much imagination to see where this is going.

Renegade50: NOTHING, coming out of the horrific entity now known as kalifornicationkopia, surprises me anymore - and hasn't for a couple of decades now. The ONLY thing kalifornicationkopia is good for anymore is to laugh at. And that is sad - it was once a great and beautiful state! Hold into the wind VarmintGuy

Iβm not sure, but I thought if youβre a commercial entity, you are excluded from this...Logging, lawn care company, golf courses, etc.
Gonna be a lot of neighborhood Karenβs filmed on cellphones.

They have been talking banning that sch!!t for a long time. When I was living in LA in 1992 they were talking the pollution from the landscaping equipment was worse than the cars in the road. That state is screwed and itβs unfortunate. Itβs not the state of California, itβs the entire country. If you havenβt noticed, the Biden administration has taken Californiaβs model to the federal level. Unfettered illegal immigration, gutted military, $15/hr minimum wage through the back door, Mask and vaccine mandates etcβ¦. I wouldnβt be pointing and laughing at California. The speaker of the house and the VP are from California, do you think this was all an accident ? kwg

Outfit I work for uses small engines on all of the lawn equipment we build.
Getting ready to hire some new engineers to start designing/building battery powered equipment.
Wonder what we are going to do with all of the old Lithium batteries????
