RE: (ET) ET and actual fuel costs

Ok - I understand rate and time to compute kwh, but how did you capture the
total kwh to recharge given that the kw required varies (reduces) over time
as the batteries charge up?

thanks,

I have over 2 acres of rough terrain, but mostly flat lawn. My old 
Craftsman
tractor with a pooged 20 hp gas engine needs about 3 gallons (@$3.29 this
week) = $10 to mow it.

Very heavy mowing this week, but I used my (under restoration) C185 (E15)
with front deck. Half on Saturday, half Sunday. Recharge power was 6.17 kw
and 5.2 kw = 11.37kw = $1.14 at my electric rates.
