Well, I re-ran my numbers and it looks like I need at least a 190Ah battery if I am going to be able to mow for an hour straight without recharging. I got some tips from the local EV guys that helped out here. My estimates were quite optimistic. So, I think I will be looking at going to use 8Vs or 6Vs so I can get some more Ahs.
