Electric?

[cheesedawg82]

Sorry to start yet another thread, but "95" is too short of a word to search. Anyone want to talk electric tractors?

Here on the half acre homestead, I can't start up a tractor before 7 AM, and out of respect for the neighbors would prefer to wait until at least 8 AM, but it sure would have been nice to be able to plow the driveway at 4:30 AM and had it cleared out before the city trucks came out.

I see there's a plow for the 95 electric, and I do have an aging orange rear engine rider in the fleet, as I can only mow with a 32" deck. Frankly, a plow about 2" narrower than big brother on a tight turning machine would be really handy. Now that I've got the yellow fever, I'd really like to learn about these tractors in case I can ever actually get my hands on one. With all those batteries over the rear, I'm guessing a set of chains will give traction for days when pushing snow. I'm looking for someone to confirm or disprove that theory.

Now, looking around the empire of dirt, I see a sad and lonely 127 in the corner of the garage, and the only thing left under the hood is a K301 with a broken rod. With all the amazing builds I've seen here, someone has to have found the right combination of electric motor, starter, and batteries to push the Hydro. For my needs, an hour or so of run time per charge would be more than sufficient.

Key salvage items to seek in search of components included but certainly not limited to electric golf carts, floor scrubbers, fork lifts, trolling motors, and treadmills.
