best lawn mower at lowes image
John
If I got in a pinch during a power outage and connected a 12 volt to 110 volt power convertor to the battery of my lawn tractor (via a cigarette lighter connection that I can install), how much power would be available? I have a typical $900 Lowes lawn mower with a 15.5 HP Briggs engine. And I don't have the power convertor yet, so I can buy any size.

Well that's a good source of power ..but its not very much... the charge rate is about 5amps...maybe a little more right after cranking so lets just say its 7amps...and has a 10amp fuse in there somewhere..7 amps at 12 volts is 84watts ..Now the little battery in the lawn mower is good for about 120amps for about 60 seconds...then it melts...or it can put out 12amps for 600 seconds or 6 amps for about 20 minutes...so if you can run what you need off the battery plus the charging rates your in business..However if your really wanting to use the lawnmower to its absolute best..you might find the drive belt and make an adapter so you could run a 12vdc alternator which charges a deep cycle battery that in turn is connected to an inverter and get a good 1200 watts at 120volts for quite awhile..They really were made to cut grass though..if I could just get my kids on it...Oh well!..From the E

Leaving Lawn Mower in box for over a year?
Weezy
I just bought a Troy Bilt Self Propelled Lawn Mower from Lowe's, which I got a good deal on. However, the neighbor boy now wants to cut the grass for only $10; so I figured it's $10 is worth my time. If i leave my troy bilt lawn mower in the box for over a year or so unopened in the box will it still be as good as new to use when I decide to? Will the oil still be good?
Answer
You should at least make sure everything is in the box that should be in the box. Like wheels, brackets, screws, a manual, etc.... I have to talk to at least 10 people every day who gets a unit as a present or buys a unit and doesn't open it until it's time to use it...only to find that there is something missing. After, a year,,,Lowes isn't going to help you and the full warranty is only 90 days after date of purchase. Believe me...I know.
