cuz i got an electric snowblower. i know. it sucks! it mostly sucks because i gotta deal with a cord in the winter. it gets very hard to deal with. do they make battery packs that i can plug into it and then eliminate a cord? or is there something like that but instead of batteries, it sends a signal to a receptor plugged into the wall, eliminating the cord??thanks
You've just learned why it is not a great idea to have an electric snow shovel. That power cord is a dang nuisance! The answer to your question is not quite no. There ARE rechargeable battery devices that will supply 110VAC to operate your snow shovel; but they are heavy and not intended to be carried around. They are for emergency use of 110 VAC appliances where there is no available AC outlet. You can find them in Auto Supply stores and truck stops. They typically have both heavy-duty battery clips to connect to a car battery, as well as a standard AC power cord. This way the batteries can be charged up on the road or in a dwelling. The batteries themselves are small versions of car batteries; and as you know, they are not light. Add in the transformer to up-convert the voltage, and you've got a rather heavy device to lug around. As you might guess, this is an impractical way to operate your electric snow shovel.
