I Want: A Husqvarna Automower 260 ACX

Posted by Douglas Charles on May 5th, 2009 at 3:00 pm

A while back I said I wanted a certain radio-controlled lawn mower that sort of looked like a mini tank. And I still do, of course. But I may have found a better alternative. A Husqvarna Automower 260 ACX! It doesn’t even need me to control it and if it gets into trouble it sends me a text. So I can be mowing the lawn and sitting on the couch watching the game and be worry/work/sweat free!

Day or night, rain or shine, all on its own, it cuts and fertilizes the lawn to perfection without any emissions. If the mower gets disturbed, it sends a text message (SMS) to the owner’s cell phone.

The cutting time is 60 minutes, after which it returns to the charging station by itself to recharge for 40 minutes before setting out to cut again.

You get that? It goes and recharges itsdamnself! Plus it can mow a half acre lot in about 45 minutes! This might be the coolest invention since the last thing I thought was cool here on this site.
