Pros & Cons
Pros
The battery is a sealed, lead-acid type. Comes with a weird bus connector on it, but that's for the really janky looking charging setup. Recharging and replacing the battery is easy.
I love my suncast powerwind. Really no complaints about the product. Here are its limitations. Here is a helpful hint.

Well worth the money( you get what you pay for) !
I was honestly hesitant to try this battery powered one, given higher price and the variability of some batteries.
My wife was upset when i first bought this expensive "toy".
I was intrigued with this motor driven model so paid the high cost for it.

The unit arrived with instructions that were easy to follow with minimal assembly.
