First off welcome to the site.

The floor burnisher sounds like an interesting project. Electric definitely sounds like it would be a nicer way to go. Just remember there are trade offs when going to battery electric. I'd mainly be concerned with run time. 3 hours will be what you get with brand new lead acid batteries. In a few years, you will not have 3 hours anymore, you might be down to 2 depending on how well you've taken care of them. If this is acceptable, great! If it isn't you'll want to beef up your battery pack to make sure it'll last for you.
