Or if you're referring to mowing, 50 gallons would last a very long time. Several years. My reasons for wanting to switch from a gas to electric mower: most importantly, shave about 20 lbs off the weight of the mower, and also no more oil changes, changing spark plugs and filters, trying to start a cranky motor; no more gas spilling in the driveway or storing gas in the garage, and yes, the cost of gas. And of course, the environment.

Plus the electrics are virtually silent! I have a small electric outboard. It was pricey, but once you're free of gas hassles, you'll never want to go back
