Husqvarna’s Solar Powered Lawn Cutting Robot

Husqvarna’s Solar Powered Lawn Cutting Robot

By Dan Gould on October 24, 2008

Husqvarna is soon going to be releasing their solar-powered hybrid lawnmower in the US. The autonomous device can maintain yards up to half an acre in size, gathering most of it’s power from the sun. If the automower gets too low on power, it can also roll itself back to a base station to recharge via an electric outlet. Zero emission yard care will become a lot easier with this gadget, but it’s expected to cost several thousand dollars. If that’s too steep, there is always the good old fashioned push mower, which of course is emission free as well.
