nice idea, but you can get a 10kw generator, complete for less than 1k, and you don't need to use your rider for the power (or take up your unit for actually mowing.
this is a belt, two pulleys, a bent up piece of sheet metal and a generator head. The head costs 299 at regular prices.

Hey folks
Nice idea.
Buy a ridding lawnmower and use this device
for backup power.
But is the overall price for such a setup worth it?
