Lawn Mower Advice

My Bosch Rotak's battery is almost 10 years old, no problems at all. I tend to charge the battery to about 80% before winter and just leave it.

Great thanks for the info MF...

My Bosch Rotak cordless has done sterling service on the small lawn outside my static caravan for seven or eight years on the same battery.

The OP's lawn is a simple shape, so it would suit a much cheaper Bosch or other make corded mower.

My petrol mower packed up, a basic electric rotary with a mains lead works fine. I have about twice as much grass, it still takes less than half an hour all up.

Sorry to bomb you thread @Daninplymouth, just a quick question to @BoldonLad

Is that 4 Years with the same battery?
I've decked & block paved a lot of my garden, which has left me with around 20ft X 15ft of grass, which is ideal for us.
Does the battery need charging in the winter to keep it alive or do you just charge it & leave it while the next summer?
Cheers

Yes, same battery. I charge battery after each use. Over winter, I charge battery after "last" cut of season, then I just leave it (battery), in the mower, which is stored in a typical wooden garden shed.
