Here’s a detailed calculation of fuel costs for gas-powered remote lawn mowers based on typical industry data.
Fuel Cost Calculation Parameters
Fuel Type: 90# or 93# gasoline mixed with 4T oil (25:1 ratio).
Fuel Consumption: 0.7 L/hour (as per standard models).
Average Gasoline Price (2025): Assume 3.50 per gallon (≈ 0.92 per liter).
Oil Cost: 4T oil costs ~10 per liter (60-80 mL required per refill).
Cost Breakdown
| Parameter | Value | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Fuel Consumption | 0.7 L/hour | Based on 50cc engine |
| Gasoline Cost | 0.92/L | Approximate 2025 price |
| Oil Mix Cost | ~0.06/hour | (60 mL oil per 15L gasoline) |
| Total Fuel Cost | 0.70/hour | (0.64 gasoline + 0.06 oil) |
Example Scenario
If the mower operates 10 hours/week:
Weekly Cost: 0.70 × 10 = 7.00
Monthly Cost (4 weeks): 28.00
Annual Cost (6 months active): 168.00
Efficiency Comparison
| Method | Cost per Acre | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Gas-Powered Mower | ~5.60 | (0.8 acres/hour efficiency) |
| Manual Labor | ~40.00 | (Traditional weeding) |
This table shows gas-powered mowers are ~7x cheaper than manual labor per acre.
