I was wondering if anyone knows of a good electric mower that has good battery life. I saw on past posts that EGO is the way to go but I know I’ll need a solar generator or something like that to charge the batteries so if anyone knows of a good solar generator please let me know too.

I couldn't figure out why you mentioned "Solar Generator to charge the batteries".

I guess because you'll be on the job somewhere. Why not a gas or propane powered generator?

I guess that's something people never really though of which is why gas powered is still best for commercial use. Unless you invest in 10 batteries and just have them all charged and ready for the work day. Or sit at customers house for an hour and wait for them to charge using their electricity.

EGO has a very good line IMO. You're better off looking at YouTube videos on them

This. You need to define what you mean by "commercial use" OP. The term sort of implies that the person mowing moves from job to job. Unless you meant maintaining one or two commercial sites where you could keep spare batteries charging between uses. That's the thing about internal combustion engines...they may be polluting, but their power source is self-contained and mobile.
