I've been using a self propel Ego mower on about 1/2 acre of grass for
the last 4 years. They have just come out with a riding version that
uses their 56v ARC Lithium batteries, but it's pricy.
I've been very happy with all of the chargers/batteries/lawn tools from
EGO with the EXCEPTION of the self propel unit on the lawnmower. (With a
1/2 acre lawn, I've burned through 5 self propel units --all repaired or
replaced under the Ego 5 year warranty...no other issues with the rest
of the mower, but still, not impressed by the quality of the self propel
units. My lawn size really is in the ride-on category, so I'm working
the heck out of that little self propel mower.)
If it wasn't for the issues with the self propel unit, I'd recommend the
Ego ride on without reservations even without having tried it out myself
just based on all of my good experiences with just about everything else
Ego puts out. There warranty support has been great, but I don't know
how that would work with a larger ride-on mower.

OK, I'm ready for an electric riding lawn mower. My grass area is very
small, probably under a Tenth acre or less, but mostly I need it for getting
around on my yard which has a variation in elevation of 30' and sll kinds
of terrain obstacles (and basically I can no longer walk more than a few
feet without needing to sit.
I see Ryobi and cub cadet both have models thare are leadacid. 48 and
56 volt models.. but I thought we would be in a time of lighter weight
lithium. Though I admit, for my lazy maintenance record, I'd be more
comfortable with lead acid probably.?
