Some details

 I am still waiting on the charger replacement so in the meantime trying to find places for more batteries. The original plan was 2 sets of smaller batteries in parallel as bank 2. I now see they will not all fit as planned over the bank one set. I may build a box for front or rear to house some batteries. 

I am also waiting on spring for the seat, so my seat switch will work properly. 

I designed the electric interlocking to mimic the gas operation, key on, PTO has to be off, brake on, and seat switch on to “start”. When running, leaving seat or turning off key will stop motor and startup must be repeated. Safe from runaway mower from just turning it on.

I have some new led headlights to install as well

Original goal was proof of concept, combined with a backup for the gas mower. It may need a charge in between to complete yard but I figured that in.
