Why Choose Electric Over Diesel?

The real facts about electric industrial equipment

No hype. No green-washing. Just straight talk about what matters when you're choosing equipment for your property.

Performance comparison

Power and Torque

Electric machines deliver full torque instantly. That means more pulling power right when you need it, without waiting for an engine to rev up.

Runtime

8 hours of continuous work on a single charge 

Charges overnight using standard power 

No unexpected fuel runs

Indoor Capability

Work in barns and buildings without ventilation concerns 

Run equipment near livestock without spooking them 

Complete indoor demolition or renovation without exhaust issues

Cost breakdown

Upfront investment

Electric equipment costs more upfront, but it pays for itself through lower operating costs. Many federal and state incentives are available to help with the initial investment.

Daily operation

You'll never pay for diesel fuel or oil changes again. Engine maintenance becomes a thing of the past. With fewer moving parts, repair costs drop significantly. Every hour of operation costs less than diesel equipment.

Maintenance reality

What you won't need

Oil changes 

Air filter replacements 

Fuel filter changes 

Engine tune-ups 

Exhaust system repairs

What you will need

Just handle basic hydraulic maintenance, replace standard wear items, and do regular battery health checks.

Work advantages

You can work early morning or late at night without disturbing anyone. During fire season, you won't have hot engine parts to worry about. Start working immediately without warm-up time. Your operators will experience less fatigue from noise and vibration. Ground crews can communicate clearly without shouting.

Common concerns

"What about power?"

You'll get the same lifting and digging force as diesel, with full torque available instantly. These machines handle heavy loads without bogging down.

"How long does it really run?"

Count on a full 8-hour workday on one charge. Opportunity charging during breaks extends your runtime. Unlike diesel engines, you won't experience any power fade as the battery drains.
