We test the electric lawn cutters by running every one through the battery of tests (no pin intended, since we run the original battery test) and yes, we are also the grass cutting. There are currently some product categories where we collect, at the moment, ton data, but despite our best efforts, just data cannot give us the whole picture which product performs best. Taking them into the yard is the best way to filter and understand the data we have.
Battery test
Let’s start with these battery tests. This is not a more complicated, but can be a little difficult to physically configure. During the operation, we will have to insert our measurements between battery and moor to measure the voltage and MPS. The physical process is slightly different, from mover to mover, but once setup, we get a measurement of DC voltage and AMP between battery and moor, which gives us a motor power (in WhatsApp).
We take this measure on a zero load, meaning that we are not cutting grass at the moment or otherwise providing any resistance against the blades, which will change the number, which will raise the high limit of the motor’s high limits. Our next period of testing will also include the upper power limits.
Rpm test
Yes, we measure the blade RPM in absolutely electrical mouters. In CNET, the Eagle -eyed lab staff has developed the ability to count dozens of revolutions in a second in a second. I’m joking, though we have a meter for it. In fact, we take a little reflective tape and position that on the cutting blade, then the purpose of the measurement tool so that the laser light can overlaps this tape and we get to read exactly on the blade RPM.
You can see our test meter in blue at the center of the protective glass.
Now, if we combine these numbers with others, such as the length and weight of the blade and throwing some calculations of our motor power, we can estimate things like the amount of power in Newton, the blade is working on the grass. Those numbers are not very helpful. Most people will not be much aware of what is compared to the 5 Newton Force. We prefer to compare the results of power with something that people are more aware of. In this case, horse power.
Gas-powered Push moor horses vary in power, but most of them fall into the range of 3 to 5-CPs. Our next update will include the upper limit numbers, but you can see that the lower limit in horsepower for electric mooons is about 0.1 to 0.6hp for electric moor. That is, not much. Generally, you should expect power cutters to see this number triple towards their upper limits, so we are looking for 1.75hp in Balapark. You will be pressured to find the retail gas -powered pus moving under 2hp.
Noise level
We often talk about sound levels, especially with outdoor type tools. Historically, these external gas -powered tools have been high. (Try to sleep when all your neighbors are running early in the weekend early weekends.) With the arrival of an electric power tool platform, it’s all changing. Your neighbor may be obsessed with the lawn care when you swell the day.
We tested the level of the Dysable for the moor from a person’s working perspective. We do Stationary Mount a decoral meter and measure. The results were not surprising, our calm cutting was the smallest, 13 -inch lithi in 68.6db, and even loudly at 86.7DB, the most powerful cutting, Anna.
Speed test
You can usually think of moving the grass at a certain rate, especially, at which rate you move it forward. Now a growing number of moor is coming with self -run powers. Many of these lightning mover allow you to use this function even when the blades are not running.
We measure how fast mover runs in the mile per hour. You won’t visit any ramp with them, but if you intend to use this mode, it can help you decide which one is picked up or passed. Roby had a wide range of high -speed choices, but being the fastest mover decreased slightly. Robbie 3.03mph and Green Works Pro is at the top of 3.33mph.

Like this cobalt model, some grass may suffer from grass trimming.
