Cordless / Battery Powered Electric Snowblower
For more information about this device and continued updates, please see my blog at: electronicrevolt.com Snow Joe electric snowblower converted to run on 25s2p lipo cells (105V max 93V nominal, 10Ah) I found this at a local thrift store, unused for and couldn't resist. It uses a "universal" motor so very little was actually required to actually get this running other than wiring up a custom battery harness.I know it's excessive, but make sure to watch in high def 1080p! Averages between 5 - 12A, around 16A peak. This gives about 1-11 hours of runtime depending on snow depth and pack. I didn't think to make the video until after the driveway and sidewalk were finished so I thought I would clear a spot in the backyard for my four-legged friend (I don't always snowblow our entire lawn). The base layer had been melted and refrozen a couple times so it was very solid - no problem for a high-torque electric! The entire thing weighs about 30lbs - very maneuverable and easy to lift in/out of vehicles, up/down steps, etc. There are lots of other benefits as well - no starting, no gas, no oil, uses only a few cents of electricity per use. This is the battery that I put together for use on an 8kW max electric mountainbike that goes 55mph when everything isn't covered in snow - expect a vdeo of that as soon as summer arrives. In the video it is inside of a rack-mount bike bag and then wrapped in a garbage bag for waterproofing. I considered putting the battery inside the housing ...
