Not yet (kill-a-watt).

Looks like I underestimated the time to cut the entire lawn. It's probably ~25 minutes, front, back & side. There's not going to be enough juice in this pair of 12 Ah batteries to do the job - they're only delivering about 14 minutes run time before voltage is flirting with the 10.5 mark and I shut things down to avoid battricide.

Need to add another battery!
