Class Audit Methodology

Winnowl Standard Specs (Calculated)

Specification
Formula
Class Audit Notes
WS - Runtime (minutes)
Formula (Usable Energy Capacity (Wh) / 560) * 60
Audit Note

Winnowl Standard Runtime is a more realistic estimation of how long your mower will run on a single charge. It’s calculated using a standard 560-Watt power draw: the realistic continuous load required for a self-propelled mower to cut and bag typical 3-inch turf.

WS - Usable Energy Capacity (Wh)
Formula Battery Voltage (V) * Total Capacity (Ah) * 0.90
Audit Note

Think of Voltage as the pressure pushing power through the motor and Amp-Hours as the size of the fuel tank. Multiplying them together reveals the total stored energy in the battery. Because energy is always lost to heat, motor resistance, and safety shutoffs, we apply a flat 10% deduction across all models to calculate the actual usable power available to cut your grass.

Manufacturer Stated Specs

Specification
Class Audit Notes
MFR - Runtime (minutes)
Audit Note

Manufacturer stated runtime gets zero weight in the score because brand claims are often inflated and lack a common testing standard. Estimates are usually measured under perfect conditions—spinning the blade in thin air or paper-thin grass without self-propulsion.

MFR - Single Battery Capacity (Ah)
Audit Note

Single battery amp-hour capacity receives zero weight here because it is already fully accounted for in our Usable Energy Capacity calculation.

MFR - Total Capacity (Ah)
Audit Note

Total amp-hour capacity is accounted for in Useable Energy Capacity and is excluded from scoring.
