Self Sufficient Me is based on our small 3-acre property/homestead in SE Queensland Australia about 45kms north of Brisbane – the climate is subtropical (similar to Florida). I started Self Sufficient Me in 2011 as a blog website project where I document and write about backyard food growing, self-sufficiency, and urban farming in general. I love sharing my foodie and DIY adventures online so come along with me and let’s get into it! Cheers, Mark 🙂 #garden #lawn #battery
G'day Everyone, I just wanted to give another local small business shout out to Sunshine Coast Mowers they are now my go-to for all my mower and Hanza chipper services etc. Also, thank you for your continued support and don't forget to visit my website https://selfsufficientme.com/ Get into it! Cheers, Mark 🙂
Never going to get much from anyone wearing face diapers.
Lead Acid? Way to be trailing edge Toro
Love your work, Sgt.
Sorry I haven't seen, liked or commented on your vids lately, been in transit. (Relocated from Victoria to Queensland. 15 mins south of your loc now, in Burpengary)
I did something similar last week. Bought an Ozito 'rechargeable' lawn mower. Seriously, if it had yellow wheels, my 2 year old grand-son would have it as a toy, but, it does the job.
Keep up the good work bro.
How long does the battery last? Does it cut well? We had a battery powered push mower that was absolute shite, but we have a huge yard to mow and would love a riding mower.
Need one of those $5k electric utes from alibaba
Mark considering the great reviews you've given the mower! Maybe the dealership might want rethinking.not making an exception having you promote the product.
Did he say piece of kit or piece of sh!t?
Better mask up outside mowing your grass! The covids is hiding everywhere!
10:00 this moment felt like pure distilled Australia. Knew this one would be full of goofball humour and I was not disappointed.

I have one and no instruction covering the led light stats on the charger.
When plugging in red for 20 sec then green battery at just 1 bar on the mower.
2 hours later still green 4 bars on the mower. So how do I know it is fully charged?
as the blue bar is unreliable it goes from blue to green in 30 sec used as I may not have fully charged the battery and red-green worst colour for LEDs for many.
I see yours was different in your video as your stay red while charging then went green.
Can you help as there is nothing on the net about the led acid battery charger lights?
thanks
That looks so fun!
Does it handle slopes? 20deg?
That is really cool Mark, I'm not sure if we have those here in the states yet but I have not really look for one yet. Thanks for sharing the info mate/sir.
Just so people know, this is a Chinese mower rebranded by toro, it's made and developed by wiebang.
Up to 2 hours run time, but what is the average run time Toro?
Peace of kit
I hope that @Colin Furze donates his new solar mowar to you for use ! It would be awesome for you Mark and of course self sufficient !
Hahaha, Old Commblock babies gotta get around somehow.
10:00 That witches cackle as she drives away leaving a small piece of lawn unmowed was classic. Got me good.
lmao , i was a welder for Greenfield mowers back in 2010 and i made a suggestion to the management to build an electric ride-on mower .
I was laughed at n told it would never happen, it could have saved the company from going bust.
Can a generator be run to keep batteries charged for continuous mowing if 45 minutes is the mowing time approx
Hi mark, was wondering how you fitted your trailer to the battery toro ride on mower. Also where did you get your trailer from.. cheers
