Sust, a producer of sustainable technology solutions for lawn and landscape companies, launched ChargeBot, a new mobile charging solution designed specifically to meet the needs of landscapers and outdoor professionals. With ChargeBot, professionals can now charge any electric equipment on the go, simplify operations, reduce costs and avoid expensive electrical upgrades, according to the company.
As battery-powered tools become increasingly popular in the the landscaping industry, professionals face new challenges including range anxiety, upfront costs and changes to operations. According to the company, ChargeBot can solve these problems with a powerful, compact, mobile charging system that can be mounted in any closed trailer or van.
“We see ChargeBot as the ‘gas can’ that will allow electrification to finally be practical for landscaping and lawn care,” said Sust’s co-founder, Samit Shah. “We want to be the on-ramp that allows crews to finally switch to electric equipment.”
ChargeBot charges mowers, trimmers, blowers and electric tools from all OPE brands, ensuring that landscapers can stay productive throughout the day without worrying about battery limitations.
