Powered by eSeries Battery Packs
DR’s uniquely engineered battery packs (sold separately) are designed to function either independently or as a set that can be drawn on, or charged, as an interconnected array.
Use one, two, or three batteries in the ZT5E: each is 2.5 kWh, allowing for up to 7.5 kWh. The power for mowing and self-propulsion is the same regardless of how many batteries are installed—the difference is in runtime. Recharge overnight in the mower.
