Solar Power Automower
If your weekends are like mine, they probably either consist of you nagging your spouse to mow the yard and clean the pool, or avoiding your significant other’s pleas to do so! Who wants to spend Saturday doing tedious yard work? Wouldn’t it be great to put solar power to work in your backyard?
Your dreams have come true! And just in time for the holidays. Two cool solar powered gadgets are on the market for the special yardwork-hater in your life: the solar power automower and the solar power pool skimmer. Both devices work by converting solar energy into clean, emission-free power. And they work automatically so you don’t have to! Its time for a solar power backyard!
The solar power automower is manufactured by Husqvarna and is similar to the “Roomba” automatic vacuum cleaner. Solar panels on its roof allow for emissions-free, hands-free, and sweat-free lawnmowing. The lightweight automower is only 22 pounds, and it mulches as it mows your lawn automatically. A single charge is enough to power the battery of the solar power automower enough to mow half an acre.
Solar Breeze Robotic Pool Skimmer
As great as this is, you probably really have to hate yardwork to invest in a solar power automower. The little device will set you back $3,000. But it is awfully cute, don’t you think? Just relax in your solar power backyard and let the little robot take care of the dirty work for you!
If you have a swimming pool instead of (or maybe in addition to) a yard, then you must consider investing in a solar power pool skimmer. Solar Breeze sells this slick solar gadget that never needs recharging when its out in the sun. Not only does it gather leaves and debris, but it also dispenses pool chemicals to keep the pH balance even and the water clean – instead of green! People that own the solar pool skimmer use their pool pump about half as frequently.
Perhaps the best part about the solar pool skimmer is its price! For less than $500, your investment will soon pay for itself in saved energy costs for running the pump for your pool.
So there you have it – two cool devices for a solar power backyard! I would say that both are key to a relaxing weekend – free of nagging and full of more enjoyable pursuits. Like sunbathing?
