Hybrid Remote Control Lawn Mowers Are Setting a New Standard in The Industry.
An independent study in 2001 stated, "mowing the lawn does the same amount of damage as driving about 100 miles in a car." That does not include those who use 2-stroke weed eaters as lawn mowers on steep slopes, ditches, and saturated ground. The hybrid remote control lawn mower, such as the Southern RobotX SRX22T, allows lawn care professionals to increase productivity in those situations, while at the same time, reducing fuel consumption. The hybrid power system on these mowers reduce fuel consumption by 40%, in addition to keeping the battery charged during use. The lawn care professional usually don't care about the M.P.G. on his mowing equipment. But, by giving them an alternative to 6 or 8 ozone eating weed eaters on slopes up to 70 degrees, they are able to increase productivity by using commercial grade green technology. It is a win-win situation for the environment, as well as the lawn care professional.
Another win-win situation is on the residential side of things. The residential models are benifiting the elderly and/or disabled people who, due to the physical demands of traditional lawn equipment, usually resort to having someone else take care of their lawn. Unlike most of us, a lot of elderly really do enjoy yard-work. And now, by using green technology, they are able to rekindle their passion for yard-work.
The practicallity of the hybrid remote control lawn mower is what sets it aside from the other, more environmentally friendly, mowers on the market today. The all electric push mowers are great for the environment, but have to use a 12" fragile cutting blade due to the lack of power in the DC electric motor. The fully robotic mowers are also very environmentally friendly. They are not practical on most lawns, either. Not only do they use the same fragile blades, but you have to bury a wire, similar to the invisable dog fence, around the perimiter of the lawn. Slopes over 20 degrees are not recommended for the fully robotic mowers. However, if your lawn is less than 10,000 sq. ft., and you don't mind changing blades ever-so-often and burying a wire around the perimiter; the all electric mower is the environmentally minded choice. The hybrid remote control lawn mowers have the perfect balance between being environmentally friendly and practical for most lawns.
