That Solis SV 24 is quite impressive! I could watch these types of videos for days on end. In fact, come to think of it, that goes for all TKCL videos!!
Thank you for watching and the support
Hi, Andrew! A man, his dog, and his tractor!!! Loving it all day long.
Love it when a garden comes together. 😂
Deer garden!
Andrew having fun😂
I sure am!
Electric has a lot of torque
I guess I'm gonna use the whole bag! At least you were over the spreader! Lol! Pretty handy tractor for small jobs!
Right! I hate those cheap paper bags, I never have that problem with woven or plastic bags. It is handy for small jobs, it's not for all day work.
thats pretty good! now all it needs is a solar pannel canapy to help it charge while your takeing a break!
That would be awesome
@@TKCL its a thought!
Interesting tractor. Lots to look forward to, it might work for our little 5 acre homestead. Seems to be the sweet spot, especially once the solar system is in place.
Go to summit hydraulic and you can get a multiplier and put a hydraulic top link and more
Tillers are the way to go for food plots as well as gardening.
I'm really liking the one pass and it's smooth.
I would guess the diesel PTO will be stronger. Depending on the hydraulic pump the EV front end loader could be stronger also. I guess it depends on your needs as to which one you use more and need more strength in.
Your exactly right on your guesses. The electric would be excellent for loader work, the diesel is my choice for pto work.
Cool I hope you are getting some rain. I thought about you Monday as I was disking part of my dove field for planting a 6-way blend. I like to plant about an acre and a half of the upper portion of the dove field for the deer. I didn't prep or mow, I just started disking and it took about three passes to get it the way I wanted it. That is when I thought of you using the tiller. That sure would have made it a lot easier. I've already looked at a couple of tillers on Market place. I like that electric tractor, but I also like my diesel tractors too. Thanks for sharing.
Very thankful to be getting a nice slow rain.
Hi Andrew , the tiller with the electric tractor is impressive. I am still an engine guy but open to new stuff. I just think after lots of use it won’t hold up, maybe I am wrong, time will tell. I love your reviews and how toos. Thanks for the video. ❤️❤️👍👍🇨🇦
It's a cool concept and for some. I'm a diesel guy myself.
Awesome! Thanks for the content
Thank you for watching
I agree with you, it would take a while to get use to the quite tractor. You hear sounds you never heard before.
It is interesting.
Ruger needs a side car. Lol
Hey you got your food plot planted with no fuel cost and the rain your getting today and tomorrow will give your plot a jump. The electric tractor is doing just what I was thinking doing some work even if you have ZERO gas or diesel but with the over cast days you will be forced to take a couple days off from farming with the solar powered tractor. Nice vid short and to the point
It's definitely not a farming tractor, it's for the occasional use homeowner or hobby farmer. With that said, it got the job done. Loving this rain, we needed it badly.
@@TKCL you forgot to say the rich hobby farmer they ain't cheap
Neither is a lot of equipment and tractors. What we all think is expensive is relative. I find new trucks and cars absurd and for wealthy people. Most would disagree with me as they own, or I should say finance these things.
@@TKCL I agree I have a 2012 F350 D the seals were leaking but it only has 135K miles. I had my Mech replace all belts, hoses, vucume lines and a New radiator and long with a few other things I can't talk about LOL but a new one would have cost me close to 100K after taxes. I follow Dave R so i would have to pay cash so I'm going to drive it till the wheels fall off. If you look and search you can find equipment and Tractors that are slightly use for decent prices especially if you stay under the 100 horse power. Equipment you can rebuild as long as it's not bent up. You will find people that thought they wanted to weekend farmers but then decided it was easier to just buy it from the store because farming ant all it's cracked up to be on some you tube channels LOL
Great content. 🤠
I saw that grappler. ;)
The loader and grapple combo is the most impressive part to me.
You know with his solar capacities if he can charge up a tractor, huh?🤔 Good job Andrew
I want to see the electric tractor skid some logs 🤔🤔🤔🤔
Seeing as range/run time doesn't seem like it will be a big issue (for you at least), it will be interesting to see how it stacks up against the diesel as just a tractor doing tractor things.
Oh it is important to me, I manage almost 90 acres. I absolutely need diesel for this size property. This is for the occasional user with far less property.
GADZOOKS you couldn't even tell the tiller dug into the ground so far until you tamped your foot in there!! Too smooth on top for depth perception Impressive is an understatement! How long was the tractor on the charger?
I usually let it charge over night, so I am not sure how long. It also matters at what percentage is remaining before charging. I put it on at all different levels.
I am curious about the life expectancy of the batteries and cost replacement - those two factors will influence my impressiveness of this tractor. It did do a nice job tilling, but awfully slow compared to the diesel.
10 years is common for lithium. No idea on availability of spare batteries at that time. It's a good question.
You won't get 2 seasons out a battery.
I'll wait for ya to figure this out.
Pray you don't see cold weather.
Nathan I don't see your logic there. Your telling me everyone running lithium batteries in cold areas don't get two years out of them? If that's the case lithium solar wouldn't work, trolling motor batteries, RV batteries, AA batteries ect all wouldn't work in cold climates. That's not the case, the only thing that you have to watch is charging in extreme cold. You've also missed the memo I've said over and over again that I'm simply testing this unit for this company. I'm not selling you one and I've stated over and over that I prefer diesel.
Seems like that electric tractor would be a great fit for your average homeowner with a few acres. Maybe that under 10 acre area.
Agreed
That tractor may be fast, but Ruger is faster.
mike aint that the truth!
Lol yes he is!
I'm interested in one of these. The only big question I have at this point is. Does it have a heater for the batteries for extreme cold clients? I haven't found anything about it so far. i know it hasn't come out yet but if you could let me know i'd apperacate it. thanks !
That's a good question, I'll have to reach out to the engineers.
I want to see this
Here it is!
Going to be interesting to see the price tag on that; looking interesting!
Curious myself, no doubt it's going to be more than diesel. New technology takes a long time to cut manufacturing costs.
I'd wager that it is at least $20k more than a comparable diesel tractor. I good be wrong but man those batteries are expensive.
How many KW is that battery?
17kwh. My guess is it's a little less of a markup than that. We should find out in the next 2-3 months.
@@TKCL If it uses LFP batteries, they run around $250 per KWh, so that's around $4250 in batteries. The electric motor costs a lot less than a Diesel, so I would expect overall price parity, but the manufacturer will probably try to cover their R&D costs, so parity may not happen for a few more years.
@@TKCL Are these for sale, and where to buy?
If You were using that electric tractor for a job like the chipper or the log splitter where you are not moving could you keep it plugged in to your solar system.
Y’all be careful I was watching the weather and they are calling for flooding rain.
We need the rain so bad! Happy to be getting it.
I'm not sure if the tractor can operate while charging.
Is the PTO independent of the tractor speed setting?
No, it revs up and down with the tractor RPM.
Ok, so whats the price range on the electric vs a diesel? That may be a deciding factor for alot of folks.
I don't have the pricing yet. But if it's based on what I see in the industry, it can be almost twice as much. I can't say that in this case because these aren't available until a few months from now.
@@TKCL i hear ya there! It will be interesting to see.
How would you rescue the electric tractor in a dead battery scenario? Like out in the field away from a plug?
It can't die on you without you forcing it to die. It goes into a limp mode at 20 percent telling you to get back and charge it. You can go a long way on 20 percent.
Oh ya you did say that previously lol. But you itched the "what if" nanny. Batteries are not perfect they could malfunction and short causing a dead battery simulating an out of fuel comparison. @@TKCL
@jonathangreenawalt5724 in that case you'd have to tow it out just like a diesel if it malfunctioned and take it to the dealer.
fair@@TKCL
Have you ever got a free tool or equipment you didn’t like
I'll assume this is a serious question, I absolutely have, many times. I even sent back items worth thousands (I could have kept it) because I didn't believe in it or it wasn't as advertised. FYI this isn't my tractor to keep if I say something good about it. It's leaving me soon regardless of what I say.
i do have to ask! do you miss it?
I miss the grapple and powerful loader. That's about it, we have way too much property for it. Diesel makes the most sense for me.
@@TKCL yeah thats its down fall but it was free to run!
first
congrats lol!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
@@AdamDeal-KF0PRI Well thank you Adam, hopefully we are both corrct LMAO!
oh you got it😊
@@AdamDeal-KF0PRI I think Cash is gettin upset set with me LOL - I got a hat trick last week and he told me he could fix that🤣🤣🤣
PJs on fire lately!
