This is so tempting at this price - I have a 60v mower, trimmer, leaf blower, and snow shovel. But my (2) 4ah and (1) 2ah batteries are still satisfying my needs.
I wonder if this would fit in my 60v mower and be able to close the cover?
yes. the batteries are the same size. I have these 8ah batteries for my snow and have used them in my 60v leaf blower for when I need extended runtimes. that said, they are HEAVY. Probably wont matter as much in a lawn mower but you might notice the extra weight.

I got this exact battery a few weeks ago and can confirm it is larger (taller). My mower cover doesn't close all the way, about 90%. Great battery and well worth it.
For those tempted to purchase third-party batteries, I would advise not to do that.
First, some third parties may falsely state its capacity as 8 Ah, when it's actually a lot less.
But most importantly, you don't want to risk battery fires with a no-name manufacturer that doesn't care about safety (over voltage protection, overheating, etc).

wow i didn't know you can buy third party batteries. looks like they're 1/4th the price on amazon. i think i'll give it a try because i aint paying $170 to mow my lawn 30 minutes longer.

FYI - Be careful in buying knock off batteries for the newer Greenworks mowers. These are Bluetooth enabled. If it doesn't receive the signal from the battery, your mower will not work.

what the scam is that all about. can third party replicate that
I got mine. It's a 4-year old battery. It was in a generic bubble bag with no packaging. It also has scuffs and scratches on it. I wonder if these are old refurbs that they're trying to pass off as new?

Mine arrived the same way with a similar manufacturer date. It was in perfect condition. I connected to the Greenworks app and it had 0 battery cycles.
