Saving The World With Electric Motors

Hank said the spruce trees and willows along the driveway needed some trimming, so we harnessed the power of electricity to do the work.

It almost felt as good as driving an electric car

The Boys and I are just doing our part.

Awesome!!! :

Lol

That’s funny right there. Love the gasser to power the electric

I’m down in a basement of the VA running big electric power on my slab saw and my robot. But it takes a big Cummins m9tor to make 3 phase 480 so I’m staying neutral

We have an EGO mower for the yard. Actually really like it. I joke with our neighbors about our “coal powered” lawn mower. Some don’t get it but it’s funny to me

If I’m driving 700 miles, I at least need to stop halfway to empty my bladder and find something to start refilling it. I’ll gladly refill the tank as well at 350 miles.

heck 200 miles and I’m ready to stop!!!

F-150 3.5eco 36gal tank. That was from a road trip to Iowa last year. I’m usually around 500 miles per tank at fill up according to the display.

Heck 200 miles and I need to get gas. Well like 246 but its pretty bad.

Electric chainsaws are actually pretty decent, at least for small stuff. One big problem with them is they are so easy to use that newbies are ripping themselves apart because they have no idea how to use a saw. My cousin’s friend is a PA and she’s seeing all kinds of injuries because people don’t have the correct amount of respect. It’s still a chainsaw. They just don’t make the wonderful music a 2 stroke saw does.
