As Ben said mowers are very easy to convert. Motenergy even makes a permanent magnet motor that has an extended 1" shaft just like most small engines have that will drop right into most mowers. The cost is low and the maintenance is... well virtually nothing (gotta grease zerks every once in a while)! Just plug it in and it works. I LOVE mine.
