Go to Work with Power in Tow Using the Greenworks OptimusMC Trailer
The fact that today’s lawn service and landscaping companies can go full-on battery power is amazing. In fact, many practitioners and industry journalists didn’t think that day would come, but lo and behold, it has. Nevertheless, this evolutionary feat is not without its challenges. Now, the Pros have to find enough power resources to last them through a hard day’s work. And that’s where the Greenworks Mobile Power Station comes into play.
Greenworks Mobile Power Station Features and Design
Simply put, the OptimusMC is a roving charging port for your fleet of lawn care equipment. Featuring a 26kW battery that runs power throughout this 20-foot trailer, the Greenworks Mobile Power Station has room enough to fit 3 Greenworks OptimusZ zero-turn mowers.
Moreover, it charges them while stored or in transit.
On the capacity side of things, this trailer has 18 temperature-controlled battery ports that charge handheld batteries at up to 10A each. Furthermore, it comes with four 20A 120V AC power outlets, demonstrating that the Greenworks design team went out of its way to cover all of the bases.
Here’s a summary of what you can charge:
- 25+ battery-powered tools
- Up to 36 handheld batteries
- Up to 3 full-size Greenworks ride-on mowers
Another useful design feature is the way the entire Greenworks Mobile Power Station charges. Just plug into any vehicle charging station (which isn’t hard to find these days). This includes both Level 1 and Level 2 EV charging.
Additionally, you can charge it on the go using optional 3000W solar panels mounted on the trailer’s roof.
Accessibility and Security
Of course, accessing your trailer is important, however, so is keeping it secure.
The Greenworks Mobile Power Station comes equipped with a keyless entry system and smart electronic locks. On top of that, you can set personalized key codes using the Greenworks Fleet Connect app.
Also, Greenworks Commercial provided security measures to keep your tools and trailer safe.
The trailer utilizes a GPS connection, thus giving managers full visibility of their crew with real-time metrics via the Greenworks Fleet Connect app.
Green Shield theft protection creates another safeguard against thieves, as does a security system with an HD camera, and exterior deterrent lights.
Greenworks Mobile Power Station Price
Greenworks plans on releasing this high-tech behemoth in late 2023. While they’ve yet to announce a price, you should keep an eye out for an update closer to the official release.
