I wonder how long the batteries last before they need replacing
and how powerful these battery powered mowers are?

I don't imagine that most of them are designed to have their batteries
changed, or not at the cheaper end of the market.


All of them have removable batteries, but if you buy at the Lidl end of the
spectrum you might not be able to source replacements. Many of them are on
Makita/Ryobi/etc battery systems like other power tools. The fancier ones
are higher voltage and do their own thing.

Even if you can't buy replacements, all of the batteries can likely be
recelled - they're probably just 18650s inside.
