Product Name: | 80V HP Brushless 30 in. Battery Electric Cordless Zero Turn Riding Mower with (2) 80V 10 Ah Batteries and Charger |
Product Description: | Introducing RYOBI's first lithium-ion battery powered zero turn riding mower, the RYOBI 80V HP Brushless 30" Lithium Electric ZTR.* HP Technology and 80V batteries combine to deliver the power equivalent of a 28 horsepower gas engine*, while eliminating the hassle and maintenance of a gas mower. This rider cuts up to 1 acre per charge with the help of 4 brushless motors and (2) 80V 10Ah batteries, with a Super Charger that fully recharges in 1.5 hours so you're ready for your next job. The revolutionary iDrive system uses an intuitive one-handed joystick steering to maneuver around objects more easily than a traditional ZTR. The innovative LCD screen displays runtime, battery life, and more, while the Riding Mower app allows you to monitor charge time and battery life remotely. The 12-point height adjustment allows you to select the perfect cutting height between 1.5" and 4.5". This mower continues to lead innovation with the compatible Bagger Boost accessory, which quickly clears the chute with the press of a button. The 30" deck and rubber side discharge chute allow this rider to fit through a standard 36" gate, and makes it easy to maneuver around landscaping. Designed with comfort and convenience in mind, this mower features a premium seat, a USB port to charge phones, a storage compartment, and LED headlights. Lawn maintenance will never be the same thanks to the RYOBI 80V HP Brushless 30" Lithium Electric Zero Turn Riding Mower. |

It's a shame because it's very very well built and Ryobi ditched the AWFUL Leoch lead acid batteries which only lasted a year. I wouldn't be surprised that they were clearing these out due to poor sales and returns. Maybe after a few iterations they will work out the joystick issues, but this is pretty much a first generation product and functions like an experiment.
EDIT: FYI I forgot to add, for anyone considering a riding mower be aware of the crappy nature of most of these warranties. If you need service it's on YOUR dime to transport these to a service center, and I've researched it's very difficult to find a service center near you, it's typical to not have one for 50-100+ miles because most dealers just deal with gas powered and not electric. Ryobi, Greenworks, and Hart all function this way, although Hart's customer service swears they will send a technician to do repairs on-site, it's still not actually in their warranty. So if you have no way to transport one of these you should definitely think twice, at the very minimum check on their website for the nearest service center, call them and make sure they do service the electric mowers, and ask if they do transportation. In the north NJ area all the dealers said they don't do transportation, but when they used to do it they would charge $300 round trip and only did local pickups.

Well, what I meant to say is that anything they've made/sold (re: battery powered/cordless tools, etc) in at least the past 10-15 years... has all been lithium powered, right?
Furthermore, I thought Ni-Cad battery technology was phased out of a lot of tool maker's lineups the past 10-15 years.
Can anyone confirm? Not a big deal. Just trying to get some clarity. : )
The 48v ride on mowers use 4 sealed lead acid batteries. I own one. And yes, the batteries aren't great even if you maintain them by keeping them on the charger at all time, balancing, not running them low. I got a new set on warranty despite taking perfect care of them (I'm a battery person, the type that will open a SLA to try to refurb them). The next time they go bad I will replace with a custom built 48v lifepo4 setup, which is cheaper than buying the SLAs. Honestly, just buying 4 deep cycle batteries from Walmart would be way cheaper than buying their replacement SLA and probably perform as well or better.

80v lithium at this price point is good as I paid 3k for the standard (non zero turn, base amp hour SLA battery) model years back. Besides the batteries they can be finicky with the electronics (switches, solenoids) but if you are handy these are easy fixes, often not even requiring replacement parts, just a little reconfiguring or tweaking.
You are probably referring to the old 480e which used lead-acid batteries. It is true that those dont last long, but it is generally not anywhere as bad you made it out. My friend in Chicago just replaced his after 5 years of midwest winter - it doesnt get much worse than that for lead-acid batteries charging outside in the garage.

Says they are lithium. Looks like it uses 2x 40 volt batteries also uses 2x 80 volt batteries
I have a 33" Snapper ZTR that I really like in large part due to the fact that it will fit through the gate into my dog run. Admittedly I have a little under an acre to mow.

Well the first clue would be 40 and 80 volts. You really should have just check the full specifications first before posting such a offensive post.
And yes, the early models were lead-acid, but they have ALL become Li now. They have also completely done away with the traditional zero turn sticks.

Thank you for this feedback. I've had my eye on this mower since it came out, but with the high price and different method of controlling a zero turn, I'm a bit apprehensive. This opinion is not one that I've seen in a review, so it's good to hear other people's opinions.
With that said, I have a question. I mean this with all due respect and hope this isn't offensive or anything like that. Do you play video games much? If not, would you be able to pick up a controller, like an Xbox or PlayStation or Nintendo controller, and play a basic video game without too much trouble?
It's not worth my time or money.
