The Worx 40V Cordless Lawn Mower is the upgraded, more powerful model from this well-known tool brand. Now with 40V of power and the choice to specify higher amp hour batteries, you can get at least 35 minutes of uninterrupted lawn mowing joy (as many as 55 minutes with 4.0Ah batteries) – because let’s agree one of the worst things about mowing the lawn is the constant panic of cutting through the wire.

If you have been looking for a new mower, and have toyed with the idea of going cordless, then you will certainly want to pay attention. I was sent the Worx 40V cordless (also known as the Worx WG779E.2) to review earlier this summer and have tested it for a couple of months in my garden to see how it compares to the best lawn mowers around.  

With a long and narrow garden to contend with, cordless is well suited to my plot, so I was keen to see if it could exceed expectations and be a good replacement for my corded model. Find out if we thought it made the cut.

Who will the Worx 40V Cordless Lawn Mower suit?

While the mower positions itself as being for small to medium gardens, with an impressive battery length it could be a great replacement for larger plots where corded access is a nightmare. Where petrol may have reined supreme in these spaces, cordless models like the Worx WG779E mean you can get great results no matter how far you are from a powerpoint and we much prefer battery powered to smelly (and polluting) petrol.

It still has lots to offer for small gardens too, being compact to carry and store and most of all, it is incredibly affordable at half the price of many well known cordless lawn mowers.

Set up and first impressions

On opening the box you are presented with a stylish black and orange lawn mower that matches the rest of the Worx range (and their batteries). To set up, you simply have to put the batteries on charge in the supplied dual-battery charger (which takes roughly four hours for the 4.0Ah pair of batteries) and attach the handle to the mower. This is very easy to do, and requires no tools as the handle fixes with easy-turn bolts. 

The instructions weren’t really needed which was good as I would say these were the only drawback of the product. I get it – picture led instructions are the way most companies are going now, as they are more accessible and save printing several language variants. But I really could have benefitted from some annotations in places. There is a labelled diagram at the start however which helped me check all the parts and know what each was for.

With the batteries fully charged you are nearly ready to go. Just slot them in and attach the grass box to the back of the mower – easy. You then insert the safety key by the switch. This is a great feature that makes it a bit trickier for children to start the mower and means added protection from it starting while you are checking for blockages (although the instructions advise removing the batteries before ANY maintenance).

The batteries are easy to slot in and are covered by a lid for protection

How easy is it to use the Worx 40V Cordless Lawn Mower?

The buttons to start the mower are clearly marked to show what order to press them in. First is the safety key, then the easy grip bar switch that is the length of the handle. The handle itself is soft to touch and can be adjusted to the height of the gardener.

Then, as expected, you push and walk to mow. A steady pace is best for even and neat mowing and there is a roller to leave those stripes we all love. My lawn is a bit bumpy so I didn’t get the perfect lines you might on a level space, but there was evidence of them in places. The 34cm wide unit is a popular sizing for mowers as it is wide enough to cover a medium space quickly, but also narrow enough for smaller areas.

It is easy to manoeuvre with medium-sized wheels that offer a good point to turn on. And as the mower is not too heavy, most users will find it easy to push and transport from where it is stored. This is aided by a compact body and a sturdy handle on the middle of the unit for carrying.

Corded vs cordless mower

Until fairly recently, your best option for a cordless mower was petrol and these are still favoured by many people who want to be able to mow in places where a power point is not available. However, petrol is not the best for the environment and depends on you having a supply ready to go. Cordless electric models were very expensive when they first came out, but with loads of options in the sub £250 price bracket, the market is far more competitive, the tech better and the battery life longer. For the best experience look for models with batteries that can be used in multiple tools and a long enough battery to cover your plot.

You can easily change the cutting height from two centimetres up to seven centimetres, using a handle by the front wheels. My lawn was a little overgrown before the first use, so to avoid battling with long grass, I set the mower to it’s highest length to trim it ahead of trying a lower grade. This was unnecessary based on use since – the mower makes light work of even dense couch grass and weeds that have been left to run wild.

One issue I did have on first use was grass collection. The 30 litre bag is ample for a medium plot and has a flap which remains down in use to show when the bag is full. This stayed down throughout my first mow and when I went to empty, it turned out the grass had not been going in. On closer inspection, there is a plastic safety insert behind the blade that is seemingly designed to neatly guide the grass into the bag and prevent you from putting your hand through to the cutting zone, but this seemed to be preventing collection. The troubleshooting notes in the instructions did mention this and that it could be removed, and since then I have had no problems. While the mower does not mention being suitable for mulching on the UK model I tested, it had neatly dispersed the grass it had not collected back onto the lawn. It was not noticeable enough to rake away, so I left it to mulch. The US version does come with a mulching plug for those who want to use one.

While this bit of lawn is quite small, my garden is long and narrow meaning mowing at the end has never been possible with a corded model. The top where this lawn is, is also shared access so it is much safer being able to mow without wires left to trip the neighbours

Cutting results

Having switched to this from a corded model, I am very impressed with the power. I tested the mower on both Turbo and Eco mode. Turbo does lead to a slightly easier cut, but the Eco mode is very capable of making a quick job of a messy lawn – and it extends the battery length too. My lawn is only about 40m2 but I have managed four mows using a combination of Turbo and Eco and there is still a third of a battery left (if the indicator is to be trusted). It also features Intellicut to optimise the cut and create even results when switching from long to short grass or denser patches.

The cut-to-edge function works well and guides the grass into the reach of the blade. My lawn goes right up to the edge of the fence which can be tricky to cut to and it did a good job, leaving just a few longer stragglers that I can get with the strimmer or a pair of shears.

If you like a really short crop, this mower might not be for you. The lowest it goes is two centimetres – which is pretty standard – but I felt like to get that low on less even ground, I had to be really sure I was pushing the front of the mower down as I walked. This probably says more about my uneven lawn than the mower, but I have achieved a slightly neater cut with other models. Either way, it still certainly does the job and with ease, too.

While hard to tell on parched grass, the Worx WG779E.2 offers a neat trim and some striping, even on a bumpy lawn

Battery power: using Worx PowerShare system

Worx have built up an impressive selection of tools that can be powered by their 20V batteries. Most tools take just one 20V battery – we are talking their strimmer, leaf blower, handheld vacuum, drills and even a pressure washer – but the mowers use two for optimum run time. 

The Worx WG779E.2 comes with a dual charger and two 20V batteries. Depending on where you buy it, these batteries will be either 2.0Ah or 4.0Ah and we were supplied with the 4.0Ah battery pair. Both will result in the same power, but the 4.0Ah battery will mean you can work at high power for longer.

The 4. 0Ah also weighs more than the smaller, 2.0Ah so this might affect your decision if you are looking to powershare the battery with other Worx tools. While a heavier battery is not that noticeable in a mower, you might want to use the lighter 2.0Ah in things like cordless drills. However, the 4.0Ah is comparable in size and weight to the large batteries I have used on cordless drills from multiple brands and well worth the extra expense if you want the benefit or longer cutting times (a must for larger gardens).

The chargers will also run diagnostics on the battery and this is handy if for some reason the mower stops working. You can put the battery in the charger and a green light means it is charging (flashing) or fully charged (steady). A red light indicates an issue such as the battery overheating or being defective. If defective, the charger will attempt to repair the battery and continue to charge. Failing that, the Worx tech team are happy to help troubleshoot by phone.

What features and settings does the Worx 40V Cordless Lawn Mower have?

As mentioned before, you can use Turbo or Eco modes to cut your lawn. I have used both and find the Eco mode is sufficient for regular summer cuts. I think I might need Turbo for the first cut after winter and would use it for cutting meadow-like lawns. Having not tested this mower on wet grass, I can’t say how it performs, but based on the first mow (of a rather unruly lawn) I don’t think it will struggle too much.

The range of heights are just right. I can’t see me needing anything longer than the longest setting (7cm) and the lowest grade is what I tend to default to. Another nice feature is the grass bag indicator flap to tell you when the mower is full, although at 30 litre capacity, it has more than enough room for my small lawn. Finally, you can check the battery life whenever you like by pressing the charge indicators. As you can buy spare batteries, I would recommend investing in a couple of back-ups if you have a bigger garden, so that you never run out of juice. However, with an easy 40 minutes of cutting time from the 4.0Ah batteries, the average garden will definitely be covered, and bigger lawns won’t be a stretch – especially in Eco mode.

How does the Worx 40V Cordless Lawn Mower rate online?

With glowing reviews from a number of retailers (including users on Amazon), it is no surprise that this mower has been well received – it was even been awarded a Gardener’s World Best Buy

Those who have tested it found no fault in its cutting and liked how easy it was to store. While the charge time is agreed to be quite long for the 4.0Ah batteries, the pay off is a very long battery life that is plenty for most gardens. Reviewers also agreed that it was light and represented great value for money.

Many reviews agree it should be awarded 4.5 or 5 stars.

How does it compare to other cordless mowers?

This is the first cordless mower I have used and I was warned that the tech involved often makes them quite heavy. That certainly wasn’t an issue and I found it easy to move around and take out of my small, cluttered outbuilding. 

It holds its own well against far pricier models including those from Kärcher, Gtech and Bosch who are well known for garden and power tools – some of which are particularly lauded for cordless tech, too. And, at the lower end of the market when it comes to price, the Worx WG779E.2 holds ratings that match far pricier competitors.

The verdict?

If you have a small to medium plot, little space to store a big swanky mower, and just want something that will do a quick and easy job every weekend, then go and buy the Worx 40V Cordless Lawnmower today. Sure, it might not leave your lawn looking like that of Wembley Stadium, but for the price it delivers a very neat cut and will keep your lawn in check all summer with little effort on your part. It is also fairly quiet so your neighbours will like it, too.

And, if you are a keen gardener or DIYer looking to extend the range of power tools in your arsenal, we highly recommend buying into the Worx PowerShare selection. They promise a good choice for all your project needs and as the prices are not prohibitive, your only limitation is space to keep them all – but as mentioned before, this model doesn’t pose too many issues in the storage department either.

The Worx 40V Cordless Lawn Mower could not have arrived on my doorstep at a better time. After a period of lots of sun followed by lots of rain, the lawn was growing rapidly and well in need of some maintenance. And I doubt I am the only person who is guilty of putting it off until it starts to get embarrassingly long. Lugging the mower out of the shed and having to mess around with extension cables adds unnecessary minutes to what should be a straightforward job, in my opinion.

However, having not tried a cordless before, I was slightly more keen to give the grass a good mow with this new tech in my hands. After several weeks of use (and several mows) it is time to share how I got on with the Worx WG779E.2 and see if it deserves a place in our list of the best lawn mowers. 

To start though, a bit of context. I hate mowing the lawn – even though mine is just 40m2 – and I have the smallest of spaces for garden tool storage. I also tested this in summer when the grass had been both lush and overgrown to start, then very dry in recent weeks. It should also be noted that I was sent the Worx 40V Cordless Lawn Mower with 4. 0Ah batteries which offers a longer battery life at full power than the 2.0Ah package, but costs slightly more. Read on to find out how it performed.

Key product specs:

Power type: battery (two, 20V 2.0Ah or 4.0Ah Li-ion)
Battery length: 30–35 mins for 2. 0Ah/ 40–55 mins for 4.0Ah
Charge time: 2–4 hours (more for the 4.0Ah)
Cutting width: 34cm
Cutting height: 2–7cm
Size: 72 x 42 x 33.5cm
Weight: 11kg
Grass collection box: 30L
Lawn size: up to 350m2

When you open the box, the main body of the mower is pleasingly compact. It was also fairly light and easy to remove from the box (a sturdy handle on the body of the mower helps) and the black and orange colourway is pleasingly modern. It is made from a combination of durable plastic casing and metal handle with a soft touch padded section for steering. 

It came with two 4.0Ah 20V batteries, both of which need to be charged beforehand and they provide a dual charger to do this. If you own other Worx PowerShare tools, you can charge their batteries in the same charger and interchange with different products.

Getting started

The Worx 40V Cordless mower comes partly constructed – you just need to fix the handle which is quick and easy to do and requires no tools. While the picture-only instructions aren’t great, the set up was fairly intuitive so I didn’t need to refer to them much. It took less than 5 minutes to read through the instructions and get the mower ready for use.

Once the batteries are charged, you simply lift the lid on the body of the mower to click them into place. The 4.0Ah batteries can take up to four hours to charge, so it is great that this is part of a PowerShare system where it makes sense to have a few backups fully juiced for other tools and more jobs. 

With the batteries in all you need to do is attach the grass box and insert the safety key – a handy feature to prevent kids from taking the mower for a spin. Then press the bar on the handle to operate.

One thing I didn’t realise before is that there is a safety guard in between the blade and the exit for the grass collector. I left this in as the instructions did not mention removing it and found that the grass bag was empty after mowing the lawn. There is space for the grass to pass it, but it didn’t so I have removed it and had no issues with grass collection since. On the use where it didn’t collect the grass, it neatly chopped and dispersed it into the lawn for mulch.

What is the Worx 40V Cordless Lawn Mower like to use?

For each use I get it out, unfold the handle, pop in the batteries, attach the grass box and go. The two-step buttons to safely start the mower are clearly marked ‘1’ and ‘2’ so you have no issues getting the order right. 

First cut (long grass)

My first cut was on long, messy grass. There are patches of couch grass in my lawn and a few straggly dandelions so I thought I might have left it a bit long between cuts. You can change the cutting height using the lever on the front of the mower and on my first cut I left it high as I thought it could benefit from a pre-trim. In retrospect it didn’t need it and would have handled the longer patches of grass with ease (and has since).  

After the first mow, my lawn certainly looked neat and tidy, but there weren’t the fabled stripes many people look for. This is probably because my lawn is quite uneven so while I was very pleased with the cut, some might have wanted a more uniform look. And no mower can counter the patchiness of a lawn in need of reseeding…

Regular cutting

The lowest cutting grade is two centimetres which is standard for most mowers. I have actually mowed my lawn more often than before thanks to going cordless, so each job is a bit easier than the last. The edge-to-edge cutting is effective, even taking in most of the grass, right up to my fence. The only place I need to go back over it with a strimmer or shears is where the fence posts are as the wheels prevented me from getting any closer.

Turbo and Eco Mode

The Worx 40V cordless can be used in Turbo or Eco Modes. Eco helps the battery last longer, although after four or five uses I still had a third of a battery left, according to the indicator.

Turbo mode adds a little more oomph and is noticeable over thicker grass, but the mower also has Intellicut which helps it regulate the power needed for different conditions. Turbo is slightly louder, but even on full power the mower is surprisingly quiet.

Battery life

The larger batteries can last up to 55 minutes in Eco mode and it is estimated this should make it suitable for lawns up to 350m2. If you use the 2.0Ah batteries, you will get the same power but the machine won’t run for as long. However, Worx estimate you should get 30–35 minutes from one charge with them and this should cater for lawns of around 280m2. While it is listed as best suited for small to medium gardens, it would be perfect for larger gardens where socket access is an issue – especially if you have back-up batteries charged to do it in one go.

Although I have not tested the advertised continuous run time of 40–55 minutes in one go, time spent using it roughly addd up to that and it has definitely exceeded the 30-minute run time of many popular cordless mowers.

Ease of use

While all cordless lawn mowers have the benefit of not needing to be plugged in or filled with petrol, I found the Worx 40V cordless mower particularly easy to use. As set up is quick and straightforward, from getting the mower out, to mowing then putting it away takes about 15 minutes for my small lawn.

The power in both Eco and Turbo mode is impressive, taking the chore out of mowing. I did not test it on wet grass, but it coped with a slightly dewy lawn with no problems. It also tackled some meadowy patches of my garden without issue and the grass collector bag is generously sized so only one trip to the compost bin was needed at the end of the mow.

After use the handle can be folded onto the mower, leading to a neat unit that will not take up much room in your shed. This gets a big tick from me as my outbuilding is already crammed and this can even be tucked on a sturdy shelf out of the way.

Additional features

With two cutting modes and six cutting heights, the range of features is fairly limited with this mower – but simple is effective. However, there are a few standout features that are worth a mention. 

The grass box flap flutters open while in use, then shuts when the bag is full telling you to empty it. The grass box itself is collapsable, again showing that Worx know people like things that can be stored neatly. The batteries and mower also have a power indicator button so you can check how much charge is left.

The ability to take advantage of Worx’s PowerShare battery system is a big pull, too. Being able to use the same batteries and chargers for all your power tools makes storage and use more streamlined.

The battery charger also runs diagnostics when charging. A green flashing light or green steady light means it is charging or fully charged, but a red light indicates a problem. If it flashes the battery is too hot and needs to cool down – not uncommon after prolonged use on a sunny day – but a red light that remains on tells you the battery is defective. The charger will then attempt to repair the battery and failing that you can contact the manufacturer for help.

How does it rate?

I am giving the Worx WG779E.2 a solid five stars as it does everything you would expect and does it well. It is powerful, but quiet with a healthy battery life. I felt like nothing was lacking from the mower that would offer a better mowing experience (and can put aside my dislike of the instructions). 

The consensus among other reviewers is that this is a great mower for the price, comparing well with much more expensive cordless models and not significantly more than corded or petrol mowers either. Gardeners World also granted it a Best Buy badge.

The mower is perfect for all but very large gardens (where it would be comfortably beaten by ride-on lawn mowers) and great for a plot like mine where storage space is very limited. It is also really good for a long narrow garden, allotment or anywhere you would struggle to get mains power.

Worx 2 x 20V Battery-Powered Lawn Mower Review

Worx 2 x 20V Battery-Powered Lawn Mower Offers Quiet Operation and Budget-Friendly Price

When we tested 24 total mowers in our recent Best Gas Mower and Best Battery-Powered Mower comparison reviews, we had a wide range of expectations. One of the fun things about testing tools side by side is that sometimes we see surprises. The Worx 2 x 20V battery-powered lawn mower was one of those that performed better than we expected and improves over previous models.

Pros

  • Light and nimble
  • Visible battery gauge
  • Excellent battery efficiency
  • Nearly an hour of runtime under load
  • Quietest mower in shootout at 74 dB(A)
  • Best value rating out of all cordless push mowers

Cons

  • Feels a bit flimsier than other models

Performance

Want to hear about the nuts and bolts of how we tested? Check out our cordless mower shootout!

Cutting Power

Brushless and some brushed motors use electronics to adjust to changing conditions. For cordless lawn mowers, we often see them raise their blade speeds to compensate as loads increase. The Worx 2 x 20V battery-powered lawn mower ended this phase of our testing in the lower half of our push mowers for cutting power.

Starting at the beginning, we tested every mower’s blade tip speed under no load to find its baseline speed. The Worx mower banged out 2673 RPM with 151 MPH tip speeds with its 19″ blade. That puts it near the bottom, but this is just a baseline test to compare what happens when it has to start working.

With the Worx, we didn’t experience a surge in power when we applied a lighter load. In fact, the Worx dropped to 2542 RPM with 143.6 MPH tip speed. Even though it’s a net loss of speed, Worx was actually holding the 3rd fastest speed in its class at this stage.

We ramped things up after this, applying a heavier load for the next test. Here, we see most battery-powered lawn mowers start to direct more power to the blade. In the push mower group, every other mower gained some speed and power here.

The Worx, on the other hand, didn’t lose much power under a heavier load, but it didn’t ramp up either. It ended the heavy load testing with a 2540 RPM and 143.5 MPH blade tip speed, which was an ever-so-slight decrease. This was the slowest of our cordless push mowers.

The takeaway is that the Worx 2 x 20V battery-powered lawn mower does a fine job on your regular weekly cut. It begins to struggle when the grass gets overgrown, like several of the other value brands.

Cutting Area

If the power of the Worx battery-powered lawn mower left a little something to be desired, it picked up some slack in the cutting area department.

This mower runs on two 20V Worx batteries, totaling 40V max (36V nominal) of power. It also cuts a 19″ swath, which directly affects the area you can cut on one set of charged batteries.

Now that those facts are out in the open, let’s get to the juicy bits. In our testing, the Worx 2 x 20V battery-powered lawn mower ran for nearly an hour (57 minutes) on a regular maintenance load. Walking at a steady 2.5 MPH under these conditions, you can expect the Worx to mow just under 20,000 square feet or 0.46 acres.

The Worx’s battery efficiency proved to be the best of the bunch, cutting 110 square feet for every battery-watt hour.

Noise Level

We also tested all our mowers’ noise levels. Battery power is much quieter than gas power, and any direction you take in the world of electric mowing will take it easier on your ears. But we still wanted to see which was the quietest.

The Worx 2 x 20V battery-powered lawn mower was the quietest out of all 24 mowers we tested. Its 74 dB(A) lead the rest of the pack, and by a considerable margin. The next quietest mowers were the Redback 40V and the Makita 36V mowers, and they registered 77 dB(A).

We don’t like to use the term “whisper quiet” when talking about mowers – because that’s ridiculous – but the Worx battery-powered mower is about as close to that as you’re going to get.

Feature Set

Steel Deck

The Worx mower uses a steel deck in its construction. We prefer this over plastic decks for durability’s sake even though it adds some weight to a mower you’ll have to push around.

However, we still found the Worx battery-powered lawn mower to have a nimble, lightweight feel to it. It weighs in at just under 67 lbs, so taking corners is really pretty simple.

Height Adjustment and Range

The Worx battery-powered lawn mower features a single-point height adjustment. Rather than having to adjust your cutting height at each wheel like you would in a 4-point setup, you only need to make one adjustment, and boom, you’re ready to cut your grass from anywhere between 1.5″ to 4.25″.

We like single-point height adjustments for their convenience, but there’s is sometimes a downside that comes with them, and we’ve seen it here. The single point can create a flimsiness at the wheel where the adjustment is. With the Worx mower, it doesn’t feel like the wheel is going to break off or anything, but we did notice a slight dip at the wheel with the height adjustment.

Handle Positions

Curiously, the Worx battery-powered lawn mower model only has one handle position to choose from. Most of the mowers we tested included 3 positions, which are helpful for folks of different heights.

The handle has the capability of being folded over for vertical storage as well, though we found that it wasn’t particularly easy to accomplish.

Discharge Options

You’ve got all of the classic mowing options with the Worx 2x20V: mulching, bagging, and side discharge.

Additional Features

  • Battery gauge on the deck

Value

The Worx 2 x 20V battery-powered lawn mower won the value competition in the push mower division. The kit – which includes the mower, two 5.0Ah batteries, and a charger – retails for $319. It also comes with a 3-year warranty.

But, aside from a great price, the Worx Power Share System seems to be continually growing. Getting into this mower means that you can also use the Power Share batteries with other Worx OPE tools, like their new chainsaw.

The same battery work in their 20V max home improvement tools, like the SwitchDriver. Ultimately, the Worx battery platform is a good DIY platform to get onto.

 

The Bottom Line

Not gonna lie, if you like to let your yard get out of control for a week or two, the Worx 2 x 20V battery-powered lawn mower probably isn’t the mower for you. It struggles a bit in the power and torque department. However, if you’re the type that likes to keep your yard in good shape all the time, this mower’s runtime, noise level, and price tag all kind of rule.

Worx WG779E.2 review: Just a great cordless mower

The Worx WG779E is Worx’s best-selling cordless mower and something of a classic, on the basis that it was one of the first cheap battery-powered models to actually do a decent job. We’re now on the second generation and, like the original, it’s thoroughly affordable, well built and cleverly designed. Most importantly, it does a good job of mowing an average-sized lawn, while still being easy to store and move around.

Worx WG779E.2 review: What do you get for the money?

This is a 40V cordless mower with a 34cm cutting deck, which puts it right in the frame for people with an average-sized garden of up to 350 square metres. It comes with two 2.0A or 4.0A batteries, depending on which version you buy, plus a rapid charger and a 30L grass collection bag. The WG779E uses Worx’s Intellicut technology to match the power output to the grass it’s trying to cut, and has a choice of five cutting heights from 2cm to 7cm.

It isn’t as compact as some cordless mowers and doesn’t fold as neatly as the fantastically foldable Flymo EasiStore 340R Li. However, you can still relax the bolts on the top half of the handle and fold it over the lower half for storage. At roughly 12kg in weight, it’s also an easy mower to heft around: just grab the chunky orange handle in the centre and you’re good to go.

Worx WG779E.2 review: Is it difficult to use?

After using a few budget mowers that have taken 20 minutes or more to assemble, it’s great to have a mower you can put together with just four finger-friendly bolts and a little bit of work on the grass collection bag. And where some of those budget mowers have felt a little cheap, the WG779E.2 feels like it’s built to last. The plastics in the chassis are thick, the wheels feel solid, the axles are reinforced and the handles bolt into place securely.

You’ll need to charge the batteries before use, and that takes approximately two hours for the 2Ah batteries or around two-and-a-half hours with the 4Ah batteries supplied with my review sample. As with all Worx products, the 20V batteries are interchangeable across the whole DIY and garden tool range. This wasn’t the case with the original WG779E, which used a single 40V unit.

The light weight and solid handle make this an easy mower to push around, and there are some nice thoughtful touches, too. The deck and chassis are designed to minimise the amount of grass left over when mowing right next to a fence or wall, while the security switch that allows the mower to turn on when you squeeze the switch bar on the handle is a sort of chunky plastic key that needs to be slotted into place. Take it out – it’s attached to the handle with a loop – and there’s no way to start the mower accidentally.

It’s not all good, though. You set the cutting height via a lever on the left front wheel, and there’s something about the mechanism and the balance of the deck that makes it hard work to adjust. The Flymo EasiStore 340R Li has a similar lever but it’s easier to tweak, while the one-click height adjustment in the Bosch Universal Rotak 36-550 is even better.

Curiously, the mower has two speeds: Eco and Turbo. Using the former is going to boost your battery life but you might find yourself short of cutting power in all but the driest months. I got around 40 minutes of mowing from a single charge (using the 4Ah battery supplied), which should be enough to tackle a medium-sized lawn or even front and back lawns if they’re relatively compact.

Worx WG779E.2 review: How well does it mow the lawn?

I used the WG779E.2 for the tricky first cut of the year and – with one caveat – it handled it like a trooper. With the cutting height set left high for the initial chop, it made it through without any major issues, then I came back for a second run on the next-to-lowest setting. The Intellicut tech seems to give the mower enough power for most situations, and – on the lower height – the cut was impressively neat. There’s a roller at the rear for those who want a striped effect, and regular mowers won’t have any cause to grumble.

Less regular mowers might have a few issues, because if the WG779E.2 has a weakness it’s long, thick and (most of all) wet grass. The mower will mostly chew through this stuff, but it struggles to push it up into the grass collector and, sometimes, the whole shebang gets clogged. This isn’t unusual for cordless mowers, especially at this price point, but we’ve seen a handful, including the Bosch Universal Rotak 36-550, that manage long, wet, heavy grass better than others. What’s more, a corded mower will usually handle it better still.

Worx WG779E.2 review: Should I buy it?

To be fair, though, these mowers tend to be more expensive and, if you’re sensible, cutting at a higher level then reducing the height for a trim, you can work around it. And it’s the price that I keep coming back to, because so many other options at this price point mean compromising on build quality, usability, storage, the quality of the cut or all of the above. The Worx WG779E.2 doesn’t. It’s a great cordless mower at a price most people can afford.

Cordless Lawn Mowers | Battery Powered & Operated

Discover A Mowing Experience Like No Other

Our unique IntelliCut® system ensures your lawn mowing is done with ease and precision. The patented technology dials up the torque to power through parts of your lawn that are thicker and denser, saving energy and money. Our top-of-the line Worx NITRO model (WG761) has Auto-IntelliCut that automatically adjusts performance to grass conditions.

Leaner, Greener, and Cleaner than Gas Mowers

Make A Commitment to Battery Power

Gas powered lawn mowers produce two kinds of pollution. First, there’s the noise pollution from how loud they are, which can be really annoying for neighbors and family. Second, they produce a surprising amount of air pollution emissions.

Of particular concern is the carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions that contribute to global warming and climate change. The EPA estimates that 54 million homeowners are mowing their lawns every weekend. That’s a lot of air pollution that can be avoided. When you buy one of the cleaner, greener cordless lawn mowers available from Worx, you’re able to make a leap into the future, instead of staying stuck in the past.

Designed for Efficiency and Effectiveness

Learn About Our Specialized Design

Some models of Worx cordless lawn mowers feature fully collapsible handles so they can be easily stored in small spaces. Comfortable padded grips help you get the job done easily with reduced fatigue. If you stay on top of mowing your lawn frequently, you can let the grass clippings work their way down into your lawn and feed the grass the nutrients it needs to stay green and healthy. If you do less frequent mowing, use the handy bag to collect the grass trimmings for composting or mulching in your garden. Depending on the model, discharge bag capacity ranges from .85 bushels to 2 bushels.

If you’ve ever struggled with an old gas mower to adjust the mowing height with those levers on each wheel, you know how they become increasingly difficult to move as the mower ages. You’ll love how easy it is to achieve six or seven (depending on the specific model) different cutting heights ranging from 1.25 inches up to 4 inches (depending on model) with a single lever.

Our cordless, battery-powered mowers are also designed to be lightweight for maneuverability and are easy to push, ranging from just 29 pounds for our smallest model to only 68 pounds for our largest model.

You can also say goodbye to hauling gas cans around in your vehicle to buy gasoline, which is just one of the many inconveniences that have always made gas lawn mowers a pain in the neck. After all, why torture yourself with a gas lawn mower when you can get higher power without the mess and hassle?

You also won’t have to make the regular trek to a lawn and garden shop for engine maintenance and tune up. The advanced electric motors used in Worx cordless lawn mowers are virtually maintenance free—no gasoline, no oil, no hassles.

Battery-Powered Mowing with Fast-Charging Capability

Switch to Battery, Ditch the Gasoline

Five of our cordless lawn mowers are part of the Power Share platform, which means they use the same batteries that also power a variety of other Worx lawn and garden tools. The 14” 40V model (WG779) and the 16” 40V model (WG743) both use dual 20V 4. 0Ah removable batteries that can be fully recharged in just an hour, using a dual-port Worx charger, and can cut up to 5,500 square feet on a single charge. Both models come with a thirty-day guarantee and a five-year warranty.

Our top-of-the-line cordless mower models are the WG753 40V 21” cordless lawn mower, and the WG761 80V 21”cordless lawn mower. Both mowers are self-propelled with rear wheel drive and are part of the Worx NITRO family equipped with brushless motors. Both are powered by 5.0Ah high-capacity Power Share PRO intelligent batteries (2 batteries for the 40V WG753 mower, and 4 batteries for the 80V WG761 mower) for extended run times, increased heat and impact protection, and more from every charge. The Worx NITRO cordless lawn mowers come with a thirty-day guarantee and five-year warranty. All Worx batteries come with convenient charge indicators so you can always easily see where you’re at on battery life while working.

WORX NITRO 40V Brushless 21″ Self-Propelled Lawnmower  (Model WG753)

Manufacturer: WORX
Model number: WG753
Power source: Cordless
Motor size: 40V
Weight: 63.3 lbs (bare tool)

I recently got the chance to clean up my yard while testing out the new WORX NITRO 40V Lawnmower (Model WG753). And since summer means more outside time, I’ve got a natural increase in lawn care tasks and responsibilities. Was the WORX WG753 mower up to the task? Yes, with a few key highlights and recommendations as outlined below.

The WORX NITRO 40V 21″ self-propelled mower is a fully-featured mower comparable in most ways to a standard gas mower. But I was skeptical that a battery mower platform would actually meet my expectations. My lawn is a good testbed, not only because of size (1/2 acre), but also because of multiple spots with protruding roots, crushed-rock edges, and soil rippling near my leach field. Let’s start with the Specifications and Features for the WG753.

Specifications & Features | WG753

Specifications:
  • Cutting Height: 1.6 – 4 in.
  • Deck Size: 21 in. (20″ cut diameter)
  • Height Adjustments: 7-Positions, single-side
  • Functions: Side-discharge, Bagging, or Mulching
  • Estimated Run time: 35-40 Mins (2x 5Ah batteries)
  • Weight 63.3 lbs (bare tool)
Features:
  • Integrated folding handle
  • Brushless Motor
  • Variable-speed, self-propelled
  • Auto-Intellicut feature auto adjusts motor performance
  • LED light

Power & Performance

The WORX WG753 40V mower has very good overall power. It achieves its overall 40V power level by simultaneously using 2x 20V batteries. I was concerned a battery-based mower would be underpowered. This one isn’t. And I was concerned that 2x 20V batteries wouldn’t be comparable to other 40V cordless mowers. It was. And there are some definite benefits in the overall performance of a cordless mower. First, it was considerably  quieter than a traditional gas-guzzling mower. I had no issues completing all the cutting I needed to get done.

Auto-Intellicut

You know because you can hear the Auto-intellect feature ramp the motor power. It does this to draw max power when required and conserve power when cutting conditions are easy.

Auto-IntelliCut is smart technology inside the lawn mower’s motor. It automatically senses when grass conditions are higher and thicker. Instead of bogging down during these conditions, the lawn mower cutting capabilities speed up to cut more efficiently. On the other hand, when the grass conditions are less demanding, the lawn mower will utilize its lower setting to conserve battery runtime.

I also loved the mower’s reliability vs. gas platform.  With the WG753 there was never a question of how many pulls to get it going? or do I need to clean the carbs? or did I winterize it correctly when I stored it in the unheated shed? This is the case for any battery-based mower though. Where the WG753 really sets itself apart is its simple yet highly adjustable design and overall good performance for an easy to use machine.

The ability to easily switch (more on ergonomics later) between 3 different cutting modes is fantastic. Most of the mulching mowers I’ve used before require a mulching plug insert. The WG753 does not. It’s one less piece to lose and didn’t affect the mulching performance at all.

Battery Status Indicator

Another great feature on this Worx mower is the location of the battery charge indicator light. Most cordless tools now include a battery charge indicator on the battery itself. Old news. But Worx took it a step farther and built an indicator panel onto the back of the tool so you can see it while mowing. It makes for a very convenient way to see how much juice you’ve got left. Although between both batteries, I was able to cut most but not all of my 1/2 acre lawn (website said 1/4 on 2x 5Ah batteries).

Adjustable Self-Propelled Design

The Worx WG753 also features an adjustable self-propelled design. It’s pretty straightforward to operate and has 2 advantages. First, it allows you to match the cutting speed to the shape of the lawn. Rough or long lawn? drop the cutting speed down. Trying to mow before the light runs out? crank the speed up to max. Second, it also allows you to conserve battery life by lowering the self-propelled speed. It’s not a huge battery saver but gives you increased functionality so I thought it was worth a mention. While I didn’t see the top speed listed on the specifications or in the owners manual, the mower feels quick when set to max speed.

Ergonomics & Adjustability

So there were some ergonomics design features I really liked and some that I didn’t.

Positives
  • Ease of reaching switches and levers
  • Effectiveness of the mode changing lever
  • Design of the height adjustment handle

I liked the placement of the switches and levers. This seems minor but it allowed me to easily adjust the self-propelled speed without having to stop cutting. Their placement also allowed me to comfortably and quickly adjust the deck height.  The mode lever let me effortlessly switch between cutting modes. When you switch to mulch mode, the handle slides a metal gate over the rear bag chute hole. No plug required! The height adjustment handle is placed off to the operators right when changing the setting. This means your body position is naturally centered over the height gauge arrow with a perfect line of sight. It also allows you to use your weight to adjust the height even with the resistance of taller grass.

 

Drawbacks
  • Angle of the grip
  • Max height of the push handle setting
  • Need to tip mower back to see battery indicator status lights

My biggest gripe with this mower’s ergonomics are the design and angle of the handle. It feels awkwardly vertical and not positioned at a natural wrist angle. It wasn’t as uncomfortable on the lowest handle height setting or when gripping the handle off to the sides. But it was definitely less comfortable than other mower handle designs I’ve used before. I was also curious how tall someone would have to be to comfortably use the tallest handle height setting. It seems angled extremely high but since it’s adjustable this is no big deal. Lastly, while I love the thought that went into the inclusion of the battery status indicator light, the LEDs are not angled back enough or bright enough. The only way i could see them on a partly sunny day was to tip the mower back 20 or 30 degrees. And with dogs and kids running around that not a safe decision! But the fact that it has this feature when many competitor models don’t means its not really a knock on Worx.

Overall Impression | WG753

The WORX NITRO 40V lawnmower is their flagship self-propelled mower. The overall quality and design features are very good but not great. It combines the 3 essential mowing functions (side discharge, bagging, and mulching) into a light yet powerful mower. And the WG753 stores vertically when not in use to take up minimal space. It is perfect for lawns up to 1/4 acre in size. There are a few things that could be redesigned to make it truly reach its full potential. And at $440 it feels slightly overpriced. But if the handle grip angle feels comfortable to you when you test it out, then you should definitely consider the WG753. Especially if you already have other WORX 40V tools in your kit!

Worx WG547E Cordless Blower Overview

Worx is a German brand headquartered in the US and all products are manufactured in Suzhou, China. Since its inception in 2004, the company has been taking care of the environment (at least, it mentions this very often).

The Worx WG547E blower we are testing belongs to the PowerShare ecosystem: the system’s universal batteries can be used with all Worx 20V devices. One or two batteries and one charger are all it takes to use the company’s extensive range of tools.

* Quite simply, this is the period during which parts for device repair are delivered to official service centers. After this period, any repair in the official SC (both warranty and paid) is unlikely to be possible.

Package contents

The device arrived for testing in a cardboard box decorated in the corporate colors of the manufacturer – white, black, orange. On the box are numerous inscriptions and drawings, technical data and advertising information. It is not equipped with carrying handles.

Opening the box, inside we found:

  • engine compartment
  • 2 piece tube
  • battery
  • charger
  • instructions, warranty card, manufacturer’s list of battery devices

At a glance

The Worx WG547E Blower is a cordless blower that delivers up to 10 m³ of air per minute at 120 km/h through a pipe with an outlet diameter of 8 cm.

The blower consists of a housing with a motor compartment, an air pipe and a battery. The engine compartment is equipped with a carrying handle with an integrated control button and a hanging bracket located at the bottom.

At the back there is an air intake covered with a plastic grille.

Front – spigot with visible fan impeller. There is also a plastic grate on the nozzle, but very large-meshed.

On the back of the housing, there is a socket for connecting the battery.

The battery fits easily into the slot and stays in it well.

Blower tube consists of two parts that fit into each other. In our instance, it was no longer possible to separate the assembled pipe back, perhaps this only applies to a specific sample. The instructions say nothing about this.

The battery charger is designed to be powered by a standard mains supply. It has an LED status indication: red indicators – battery faults, green – state of charge.

The battery itself has the ability to check the charge level, for this you need to press the red button on the side and determine the charge by the green indicator lit up – low, medium, full.

The battery also fits into the charger socket without problems and is well fixed in it.

Manual

Worx WG547E Blower Manual – 28 A5 page booklet. Additionally, there is an instruction for the WA3880 battery, which is suitable for other manufacturer’s battery devices – 15 pages of text in the same format. Both instructions are written in English and Russian, provided with explanatory pictures and pictograms. Explanations on the assembly and operation of the blower are supplemented with diagrams and drawings. In addition, the instructions give safety rules, technical data and interpretation of the meanings of the pictograms on the device. The battery manual describes the charging process in detail with notes and safety instructions.

In addition to both instructions, the manufacturer included a small flyer in English listing all Worx products that are compatible with this battery model.

Control

The Worx WG547E blower is controlled by a rotary switch that has 3 positions – off, mode 1, mode 2. The switch is located on the handle and allows you to operate the device with one hand.

To charge the battery, simply insert the battery into the charger slot and wait until the green charge indicator stops flashing and stays lit. If the battery is defective, the red indicator on the charger is constantly on, if the battery temperature is below 0 °C or above 45 °C, the red indicator flashes. As soon as it goes out and flashing green lights up, the battery has begun to charge.

Operation

The instrument can be used for various purposes. This is not only blowing dry fallen leaves from paths and lawns. With the help of the Worx WG547E blower, dust, dirt, sawdust are blown out of hard-to-reach places, cracks, roofs, facades. Such a device will help blow leaves or dry snow from the car without leaving scratches. The device is light and mobile due to the lack of a power cord, so even a physically weak person can use it.

The blower showed very good results when freeing perennial beds from attacking foliage. Perennials cannot be raked: the stems and bulbs close to the surface are damaged, so the flower beds had to be cleaned by hand. With the help of a blower, we were able to quickly push the leaves to the side without damaging the plants.

Also, the blower does a good job of cleaning off the attacking foliage from the conifers, giving them a neater look.

The battery included with the Worx WG547E can be used with a range of manufacturer’s battery technology. Interchangeable batteries of the PowerShare system are used in brush cutters, chain saws, trimmers, reciprocating saws, flashlights, various construction tools. Any of the tools can be purchased without the battery and charger to save money.

Maintenance

Do not allow water to enter the instrument, therefore the manufacturer recommends using a damp cloth and soapy water for cleaning. Do not use any type of detergent containing chemicals that damage plastic.

Because the Worx WG547E uses self-lubricating bearings, no lubrication is required.

Our measurements

The battery charge cycle was 1 hour 4 minutes, during which the device consumed 0. 043 kWh of electricity. The maximum consumption was 49.6 W.

With a fully charged battery, the blower runs continuously for 18-20 minutes at 1st speed and 8-9 minutes at 2nd. In principle, these are quite normal values ​​​​for this type of device and a battery of this capacity.

Anemometer airflow measurements showed a maximum speed of 25 m/s (90 km/h) in 1st gear and 33.8 m/s (121.6 km/h) in 2nd, which is in line with the declared values ​​from taking into account the possible measurement error.

We measured 78 dBA at speed 1 and 87 dBA at speed 2. Passport data 75 dBA, thus, apparently refer to the first speed. This, of course, is a kind of slyness, but it can be forgiven: the noise criteria for garden equipment are different from home ones.

Practical tests

It is practically impossible to carry out objective harvesting tests, because it will not be possible to ensure the same conditions for different “runs” (there will always be different humidity, type and number of leaves, grass height, etc. ). We can only share our subjective feelings.

Cleaning dry and rotten leaves

The area shown in the photo was cleaned with a Worx WG547E blower with three battery recharges.

Under the dry leaves lay a layer of old rotten damp leaves. Due to the growing bushes, raking was not very convenient, besides, the grass sown in autumn made its way under the leaves and the rake could damage it.

With a blower, we drove the leaves into piles on an old lawn, and from there we already removed them with a garden tool.

Result: good.

Cleaning conifers

With the help of Worx WG547E you can clean the crowns of arborvitae from old needles. A powerful air stream knocks them off the tree at a height of up to 2.5 m, blows them out of the interior to the ground, from where it is easy to collect the needles with a rake or a garden vacuum cleaner.

Result: excellent.

Lawn Cleaner

Blower removes leaves from tall lawn grass without damaging the lawn, rakes them into piles for easier cleaning.

Result: excellent.

Conclusions

The Worx WG547E blower not only blows fallen leaves from paths and lawns – it can be used to blow dust, dirt, sawdust from hard-to-reach places and crevices, from roofs and facades. The device will help to remove leaves or dry snow from the car without leaving scratches. The device is lightweight and mobile due to the lack of a power cord.

The battery included with the Worx WG547E is an interchangeable PowerShare device that is used in a variety of Worx DIY and Worx Garden products – building and renovation tools, and gardening equipment.

The battery charges within an hour, its charge lasts for 8-20 minutes of operation of the device.

Pros:

  • light and mobile
  • battery, interchangeable with other PowerShare 9 devices0120
  • low noise and vibration

Cons:

  • battery life not enough for large areas

Choosing a battery (part 2) – Greenworks Russia


In the modern world of gadgets, it is difficult to surprise someone with a new type of phone or watch. But wireless technologies, so firmly entrenched in the world of portable devices, in garden tools and tools, have appeared relatively recently and are a novelty in the garden equipment market. More and more people are opting for cordless gardening equipment due to its undeniable advantages. And all buyers often ask the question of how to approach the choice of a particular device. For the right choice of battery technology, it is first of all necessary for the battery itself, what characteristics it has, because it is the battery that will be the basis of your tool.

Today we will try to answer the question of how to choose the right battery, as well as briefly highlight the advantages of GreenWorks batteries and tell you why our batteries are among the best. In order to understand all the advantages of our battery, it is necessary to determine the main parameters.

Main parameters:

  1. Service life (number of charge-discharge cycles).
  2. Battery compatibility (One battery for all devices).
  3. Autonomy time.
  4. Charging time.
  5. Battery voltage

Service life:

The main parameter of the battery when buying, which you need to pay attention to, should be its service life, or rather, how many charge-discharge cycles the battery can withstand without a significant decrease in capacity. The longer the battery lasts, the longer you will not have to spend money on buying new ones and think about changing devices. The number of cycles depends on many nuances. Thanks to high-quality components, GreenWorks batteries are able to withstand up to 2000 cycles, which in the case of using the battery in domestic mode, the service life will be 10 years. Thus, you can not be afraid that the battery will lose its properties after a year of use and feel free to purchase additional devices to the existing battery, which will significantly save your money.

Battery Compatibility:

The second most important parameter is its compatibility. The more devices are suitable for use with the battery you bought, the less money you will have to spend if you need to purchase new equipment. Suppose you have purchased a battery mower, but the battery from this mower is no longer compatible with any device other than the mower itself. You need a chainsaw and you want to buy a chainsaw – you will again have to buy a saw along with another battery, and spend more money. In the case of Greenworks appliances, you have an “arsenal” of more than 15 or 20 devices (depending on the series) that can satisfy most of the needs of the owner of a suburban area and allows you to use one battery for all devices.


Battery life:

Autonomy from the outlet is a distinctive feature of wireless technology. Unfortunately, there is no universal answer to the question of how long a battery will last. The battery life depends on two parameters – the capacity of the batteries and the device with which it is used. Battery capacity is defined in Amp hours or Watt hours, respectively, the higher the battery capacity, the longer it works. Different equipment has different power consumption, and for some equipment it is impossible to determine the battery life in hours, for example, the battery life for a chain saw should be correctly indicated in the number of cuts that it can make from a single battery charge, and for a drill it will be the number of twisted screws . As for GreenWorks batteries, they last an average of 30% longer than competitive batteries, thanks to the installed control board – which balances energy consumption and thus increases battery life.

Charging time:

Another important parameter is the charging time. We generally recommend purchasing two batteries the first time you purchase a GreenWorks appliance.
What for? – it’s very simple our batteries charge faster than their average battery life. That is, while you are working with one battery, the second one will have time to charge and you will not have to interrupt your work, and most importantly, this eliminates the main fear when buying battery equipment – lack of uninterrupted battery life. It is important to note that the GreenWorks professional series chargers support the fast charging function, and charge batteries up to 2 times faster.

Voltage:

The last point of our article on the right choice of battery is its voltage – here you already need to focus on your own feelings. The higher the battery voltage, the higher the strength and power of the tool. It is important to note that only GreenWorks produces professional-grade cordless tools with battery voltages up to 82 Volts, and the initial lines have batteries with increased voltage (24 V and 40 V) compared to accepted standards (18 V and 36 V).
And most importantly, you can test our equipment in branded stores and make sure that in terms of power it is not inferior to gasoline counterparts, but even surpasses them.

Here are the main parameters that you need to pay attention to when buying battery equipment. We hope that you will make the right choice, and in order to make it easier for you to make it, follow the articles on our website, in the near future we will make a detailed review of GreenWorks batteries.

Batteries – Boost Productivity – Apple (UK)

Battery life is the amount of time your device lasts without recharging. Battery life is the amount of time a battery can last before it needs to be replaced. The higher these settings, the more efficiently you can use your Apple devices.

Tips for everyone

Apple Watch users

iPod users

MacBook users

Tips for everyone: productivity

Update the software to the latest version.

Apple software updates often include advanced energy saving technologies. So it’s important to make sure you have the latest version of iOS, macOS, and watchOS.

Avoid extreme temperatures.

Your device is designed to operate over a wide temperature range. And yet, the ideal operating temperature is between 16 and 22 °C. It is especially risky to use the device at temperatures above 35 °C. This can lead to a decrease in the capacity of its battery and, as a result, to a reduction in the operating time of your device. Even more damaging to the battery can be charging at high temperatures. Therefore, the software is able to reduce the maximum charge level by up to 80% if the battery temperature exceeds the recommended values. In addition, even storing the battery in a hot room can have irreversible consequences. And if you use the device in very low temperatures, its operation time may also decrease, but only temporarily. As temperatures return to normal, battery performance will recover.

Comfortable for iPhone, iPad, iPod and Apple Watch

Ideal temperature for your MacBook: 10 to 35°C. Storage temperature: -20 to +45°C.

Charge your devices without cases.

Some types of covers can cause the battery to overheat, which will negatively affect its capacity. If you notice that your device gets warm while charging, the first step is to remove it from the case. In the case of Apple Watch Edition models, you need to make sure that the cover of the magnetic charging case is open.

Leave the device half charged for long periods of storage.

When the battery is stored for a long time, its performance is significantly affected by two factors: the ambient temperature and the percentage of charge at the time the device was turned off. Therefore, we recommend that you adhere to the following rules.

  • Do not fully charge or discharge the battery on your device – it is best to charge it about half way. If the device is left completely discharged, the battery may go into a deep discharge state and lose its ability to hold a charge. If you store the device fully charged, this can lead to a decrease in battery capacity and, as a result, to a reduction in its service life.
  • Turn off your device to save extra battery power.
  • Place the device in a cool, moisture-free location where the temperature does not exceed 32°C.
  • If you do not plan to use the device for more than six months, recharge it up to 50% every six months.

The battery may be low after a long period of storage. To get started with a device that you have not used for a long time, you may need to charge it for 20 minutes using the supplied adapter.

iPhone, iPad and iPod touch users

Update the software to the latest version.

Always make sure your device is running the latest version of iOS.

  • If you are using iOS 5 or later, check if you have the update installed. To do this, open Settings> General> Software update.
  • If an update is available, you can connect your device to a power source and update it wirelessly, or connect it to a computer and update with the latest version of iTunes.

Learn more about iOS update

Optimize your settings.

There are two easy ways to save battery power no matter how you use your device: adjust screen brightness and use Wi-Fi.

Decrease the screen brightness or turn on auto-brightness to save battery life.

  • To decrease the brightness, open the Control Center and slide the brightness level down.
  • Automatic brightness adjustment adapts the screen brightness to the ambient light. To activate it, open Settings > General > Accessibility > Display Adaptation and turn on the “Auto Brightness” option there.

When using the Internet, remember that a Wi‑Fi connection consumes less battery power than a cellular connection. Therefore, we recommend that you never turn off Wi-Fi. To enable Wi‑Fi, open Settings > Wi‑Fi, and then select the appropriate network.

Enable power save mode.

Power Saving Mode was first introduced in iOS 9. It’s an easy way to extend your iPhone’s battery life when the battery gets low. Your iPhone will notify you when the battery level drops to 20% and then to 10%, and prompts you to switch to power-saving mode with a single tap. You can also turn it on in Settings > Battery. Power saving mode reduces display brightness, optimizes device performance, and minimizes system animations. Apps, including Mail, stop downloading content in the background, and AirDrop, iCloud Sync, and Continuity are disabled. You can still use the basic functions: make and receive calls, read and send mail and messages, surf the Internet, and much more. When your phone is charged again, the power saving mode will turn off automatically.

View battery usage information.

iOS makes it easy to track your battery usage by showing you what percentage of battery each app is using (when the device is not charging). This data is displayed in Settings > Battery.

The following are the messages that may appear under the applications in use.

Background activity. This means that an application running in the background consumes battery power while you are working in another application.

  • To save battery life, you can turn off the feature that allows apps to update in the background. Go to Settings > General > Content Refresh and select the appropriate value: Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi and Cellular Data, or Off to completely disable background content refresh.
  • If the Mail app shows “Background Activity” message, you can switch to manual data retrieval control or increase the retrieval interval for automatic mode. Go to Settings > Passwords & Accounts > Data Upload.

Location and background location. This means that the app is using location services.

  • You can optimize battery life by turning off location services in apps. To do this, open Settings > Privacy > Location Services.
  • The Location Services section shows all apps and the permissions they have. If the app has recently used Location Services, next to the On/Off switch indicator is displayed.

Home screen and lock screen. This means that your device was showing the home screen or lock screen. For example, the screen wakes up when a notification is received or the home button is pressed.

  • If an app’s notifications frequently turn on the screen, you can turn off automatic notifications for that app. Open Settings > Notifications. Tap the desired app and turn off “Allow Notifications”.

No cellular coverage. Weak signal. These messages appear in two cases. When you are in an area with poor cellular coverage and your iOS device is looking for a stronger signal. And also if you used your device in conditions that weakened the signal, which affected the battery charge.

  • You can extend battery life by turning on Airplane Mode. To do this, open the Control Center and tap the Airplane Mode icon. Please note that you cannot make or receive calls in Airplane Mode.
To charge the device, connect the computer to an electrical outlet and turn it on.

When you charge your iOS device via USB using your computer, you need to make sure that it is plugged in and turned on. If your computer is turned off or in sleep or standby mode, your device’s battery will continue to drain. Please note that iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS cannot be charged using the FireWire Power Adapter and FireWire Car Charger.

Apple Watch users

Update the software to the latest version.

Check regularly to make sure your Apple Watch has the latest version of watchOS.

  • To see if you need to update your system, open the Apple Watch app on your iPhone and select My Watch > General > Software Update.
  • If an update is available, connect your iPhone to a Wi-Fi network, connect the charger to your Apple Watch (must be at least 50% charged), and start the update over the air.

Learn more about the watchOS

update

Select the settings you want.

There are several ways to conserve your Apple Watch battery.

  • During a walking or running workout, you can put your watch into Power Save Mode to disable the heart rate sensor. To do this, open the Watch app on your iPhone, go to the “My Watch” tab, select the “Workout” item and turn on the Power Saver Mode. Please note that when the heart rate sensor is disabled, calories burned may not be accurate.
  • For long workouts, a Bluetooth-enabled heart rate chest strap can be used instead of the built-in heart rate sensor. Creating a pair between such a belt and your watch is very simple. Put the belt into pairing mode. Then, on your Apple Watch, open Settings, go to Bluetooth, and select the strap from the Health Devices list.
  • If you are actively moving your hands and the watch display turns on more often than necessary, you can disable the function of activating the display when lifting your wrist. To do this, in the Settings on the Apple Watch, select General, then the “Screen wake up” item and turn off the “When lifting the wrist” function. And when you need to turn on the display, it will be enough to touch it or click on the Digital Crown.
  • If you turn off Bluetooth on your iPhone, your Apple Watch battery will drain faster. For more energy-efficient device interaction, we recommend leaving the Bluetooth function on on the iPhone.
View battery usage information.

To view usage and standby time information, open the Apple Watch app on iPhone and select My Watch > General > Usage.

Connect your computer to the network and turn it on to charge your Apple Watch.

If you want to charge your Apple Watch from your computer via a USB cable, connect your computer to a power outlet and turn it on. If the computer is turned off, or is in sleep or standby mode, the Apple Watch battery will continue to drain.

If your Apple Watch battery requires service, contact your Apple Representative or Authorized Service Provider.

iPod shuffle, iPod nano and iPod classic 9 users0007

Update the software to the latest version.

Always use the latest Apple software on your iPod. Dock your iPod or connect it to your computer and iTunes will notify you when updates are available.

Optimize settings.

Lock and pause. Turn on lock mode when you’re not using your iPod. That way you won’t be able to accidentally wake up your iPod and waste battery power. If you are not listening to your iPod, stop playback or turn off the device by pressing and holding the play button for two seconds.

Equalizer. Using the equalizer during playback increases the load on the iPod processor because these settings are not part of the song being played. Disable the equalizer if you are not using it. If you did add an equalizer to your tracks in iTunes, you’ll need to set it to “No EQ” for songs to play without the equalizer, since the iPod can’t change iTunes settings.

Backlight. Keeping the backlight on all the time significantly reduces battery life. Use the backlight only when necessary.

Plug your computer in and turn it on when you need to charge your iPod.

Make sure your computer is plugged in and turned on when you use it to charge your iPod via USB. If the computer is turned off or in sleep or standby mode, the iPod battery will continue to drain.

MacBook Air and MacBook Pro users

Update the software to the latest version.

Always use the latest version of macOS on your MacBook. If the laptop is connected to the Internet, macOS automatically checks for software updates every week. However, only you decide when to install the update. To make sure you’re using the latest software version, open the Apple menu and select Software Update.

Learn more about the macOS

update Optimize settings.

Energy. The Power Saver settings panel allows you to adjust the power consumption level for your MacBook. Your MacBook itself recognizes when it is connected to the power supply and switches to the appropriate mode of operation. If the laptop is running on battery power, the screen brightness is reduced automatically and other components are used more sparingly. When maximum performance is enabled, the battery drains faster.

Brightness. To increase battery life, dim the screen brightness to the lowest comfortable level. For example, if you’re watching a video on an airplane with the lights off, you don’t need full brightness.

WiFi. When the Wi-Fi function is on, more power is consumed – even when you are not using a wireless network connection. You can disable this feature in the Wi-Fi status menu or network settings.

Applications and peripherals. Disconnect peripherals and end applications that you are not using. Remove the SD card if it is not currently in use.

Connect your MacBook to a power outlet and turn it on to charge other devices.

Make sure your MacBook is plugged in and working when you use it to charge other devices via USB, otherwise those devices will drain your MacBook battery faster. If your MacBook is turned off or in sleep or standby mode, the battery of the device connected to it will continue to drain.
