Looking at past deals, I think you may be referring to the 75ah model without the bagging kit. This model has 100ah and the bagging kit and the extra blades.

Suppossedly the battery provides enough power for 2.5 hrs or 2.5acres cutting capacity per charge.

Decent 1 year review here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Zps5Lc6D6c

Based on last couple of years, Home Depot should have special buy for most of Ryobi riding mowers in next couple of weeks.

Be aware that the batteries (4 batteries) for Ryobi riding mowers are very expensive (plus shipping cost) if you need replacement

Yes i am...but add 200 for uograded battery 349 for bagger kit and u are still 800 better waiting for mark down. I mulch so no bagger needed and the 75ah battery on mine lets me do my 1 acre plus on single charge. With plenty charge left... i was able to stack my military discount, so OTD price was 1350, no tax either(NH)

BTW... I luv this mower, Kicks azz and fun to drive!

I think I need to get mine checked. I have some hills but battery died mowing 1/2 acre. Does the battery indicator shows full when using it? mine never gets past 1/2 charge and has 12 hours of use

That's only if you find one leftover in store, right? My local stores have never had one in stock in store that I've ever seen and I look like every time I go. They never offer it that cheap on the website, do they?

I've been wanting (not needing) one of these since forever. We landscaped our backyard and added a pool and patios- so now less grass. My needing one of these has greatly decreased- but dang it I still want one!

I am still holding on to my ancient John Deere lawn tractor but watching the battery electrics for my next one. Ego has released their ZTR but it's double the price of the Ryobi. https://egopowerplus.com/zero-tur...r-zt4204l/

Waiting..

Lead-acid! WTF! Garbage.
I have been researching this for months now. The issues with Lithium batteries are they do lose their charge like lead acid batteries. My Ego batteries even after 2 year, start to show decreased charge capacity. To replace these batteries on these lawn mowers will cost you $1000-$2000 at which point, you may as well just fork over for a new mower. The lithium mowers just aren't at a price range yet to make the purchase justifiable. Would love to get the EGO zero turn, but $5k for it plus replacing 4 batteries ever 3-5 years at $450 a pop, I could just pay someone to do my yard and would come out ahead.

We're in a pretty tough situation right now, with supply chains being taxed from the pandemic spikes in markets, and newer battery revolutions.

I would take the healthy skepticism route and expect battery tech to be suppressed from broad distribution, and manufacturers/suppliers milking profits for some time to come.
