A full working day: no range anxiety with the Knegt power strategy
The fear of running out of power
‘Range anxiety’ — the fear of running out of battery — is often the biggest barrier when switching to electric work on an equestrian facility. Daily routines are tightly scheduled: feeding, mucking out, harrowing and mowing. Knegt addresses this concern with proven Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) batteries and a well-thought-out power strategy.
Realistic operating times and service life
The 45 and 55 hp electric tractor models achieve approximately 3 to 6 hours of working time per charge in practice, with an average of around 5 hours. The latest 65 hp model can operate for up to roughly 8 hours. With LFP batteries designed for around 3,500 charge cycles, this translates into a service life of approximately 10 to 15 years, depending on usage.
Modular batteries for maximum uptime
For particularly demanding days — events, large maintenance rounds or intensive stable work — Knegt offers an optional additional battery pack. This pack not only serves as an extra energy source, but also acts as a counterweight on the front or rear linkage. This improves stability during heavy front-loader work and extends total operating time to up to around nine hours without interruption.
Efficient fast charging during breaks
Interim charging is always possible. With an optional fast charger, the battery can be recharged to around 80% in approximately 1.5 to 2.5 hours. In practice, this means you can recharge enough during a lunch break or coffee break to continue working for the rest of the day — without disrupting your schedule.
Don’t let battery anxiety hold you back
With Knegt’s modular battery strategy and fast-charging options, range anxiety is no longer a reason not to switch to electric. Request a demonstration or have a TCO analysis prepared based on your operating hours. This will give you a clear picture of how a full working day can look at your facility without downtime caused by empty batteries.
