When was the first electric mower used . I recall one in the 1950's , I never used it but I have the switch of one of about that era that turns my old table saw on and off . I thought it appropriate because the T S is a 1947 Sears Roebuck that I can turn on and off with my knee .

Yes , exactly . There are cells on top of mine to add water if necessary .
